Agatha Harkness became the breakout character of WandaVision thanks to the wonderful performance by Kathryn Hahn. She became so popular and beloved that Marvel Studios announced recently that they are working on a spinoff series surrounding the character titled Agatha: House of Harkness.
As usual, little is currently known about the plot details since Marvel is still tight-lipped about the project, except that we should hide all dogs named Sparky (which Marvel joked about on their website). But some fans are wondering, will Mephisto actually appear in the series? After all, Ever since WandaVision aired, it has been a joke amongst Marvel fans that Mephisto is behind all the dilemmas that have happened in the MCU. Maybe he will finally appear this time.
During her recent guest stint on The Drew Barrymore Show, Hahn was asked by host Drew Barrymore if Mephisto will be making an appearance in the series. She responded, "I keep hearing that. I have no idea! That was like a big thing during WandaVision. Who knows? Anything is probably possible, but I have never heard anything definitive about that at all."
Afterward, Barrymore asked the WandaVision star about who she would like to play Mephisto. However, Hahn deflected the question and instead talked about her love for playing Agatha Harkness. She said, "There is something that does feel so badass to be playing like...you know, when you think of a witch, you think of immediately you think of a woman who is loud, who is mysterious, who is dangerous because she's complicated and she's misunderstood. And all that stuff is a real turn on to me as a performer in terms of digging into this person a little bit more. Very excited." You can view the full interview here:
Of course, Hahn is going to play coy about any details regarding the series so it's not surprising that she deflected on answering Barrymore's question. Although there is a chance that perhaps Marvel hasn't told her any details yet regarding the series. It is great to hear though that the actress loves playing the character so much and she sounds like she is very excited to work on the spinoff series.
