Aubrey Plaza Reveals Reason Why She Joined MCU's Agatha: Coven of Chaos


Aubrey Plaza joining the MCU is one of the best news MCU fans have received in a while, especially with the potential of the actress reuniting with Ingrid Goes West co-star Elizabeth Olsen, who is also rumored to appear in Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha spinoff, Coven of Chaos. It is also timely as Plaza had just revealed the reason why she joined the MCU show.

Speaking on In the Envelope: The Actor’s Podcast, Plaza admits what drew her to Kathryn Hahn’s spinoff, Agatha: Coven of Chaos, discussing that although she has worked with Hahn for a few brief moments on Parks and Recreation, she has never worked closely with her. Check out her full story below:

“I think working with Kathryn Hahn—she’s a friend of mine, I’ve known her for years, we’ve never really got to, you know, we shared a couple moments on screen on Parks and Recreation years ago, ten years ago, but I’ve never gotten to work with her, really, and she’s—I think she’s one of the most incredible actresses that’s working today. She’s a friend of mine, she speaks my language. So, you know, to be able to get on screen with her and go toe-to-toe with her is like—that’s what’s driving me, you know, I think it’s cool that it’s—it’s [in] Marvel and all that, but um, but I’m really just interested to work with Kathryn Hahn.”

Seeing as Plaza’s role is still being kept under wraps, it is important to note that she has already previously worked on Marvel’s Legion as Lenny Busker, so Plaza’s return to the MCU has been long overdue. With three iconic actresses (potentially) working together on screen, here’s to hoping Plaza’s character is also a witch!

Agatha: Coven of Chaos is set to be released in Winter 2023.
