Agatha All Along is premiering on Disney+ later this month, and the WandaVision spinoff will see the return of Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness. In addition to the titular witch, the new series is also expected to feature nine actors from WandaVision. The show seems to be one big Westview reunion, but it’s unclear if Elizabeth Olsen will appear as Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff. While fans are hoping for a Wanda cameo, Olsen has denied that she’s in the show. Back when ComicBook interviewed Olsen for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, she said she had hoped the MCU would include The Witches’ Road in the future. Now that the iconic location from James Robinson’s Scarlet Witch comics is expected to appear in Agatha All Along, we wondered if Olsen knew about it. During a recent in with Hahn, we asked if she’s talked to Olsen about the show, and whether or not she knows about The Witches’ Road.

“I actually don’t know if she knows, but we texted yesterday,” Hahn revealed during D23 weekend. “I texted her to be like, ‘Oh, I’m thinking about you nonstop. I love you.’ Because she was such good introduction and welcome to this world. So it was really sweet to have a connection on the eve of all this press. But I don’t know if she knows about it. I don’t know what she knows about the show.”
“I think Mary [Livanos] and Jac [Schaeffer] were sending her photos during production,” Joe Locke added.
We also brought up Olsen’s hope for The Witches’ Road to be in the MCU to Ali Ahn, who plays one of the members of Agatha’s coven, Alice Wu-Gulliver. Back in 2012, Ahn appeared in the film Liberal Arts alongside Olsen. When asked if she’s spoken to Olsen about Agatha, Ahn was more tight-lipped than Hahn.
“It is kind of funny, right?” Ahn agreed when we joked that she isn’t the actor from Liberal Arts we would have guessed would be encountering The Witches’ Road. “It hasn’t [come up at all]. You’re the first person. Yeah, I played Lizzie’s roommate … That was one of the first films she made.”
“I mean, if I have, I can’t tell you,” Ahn replied coyly when asked if she’s called up Olsen to say, “Guess what I get to do?”
