‘Agatha All Along’ Showrunner Jac Schaeffer Hints at More Agatha and Billy in Future Projects

Agatha All Along wrapped up on October 30, 2024, after nine thrilling episodes that continued the story from WandaVision. It was an exciting journey, and while fans predicted many key moments, the series still delivered enough surprises to be considered a true success.

Billy emerged as one of the standout characters, and the chemistry between him and Agatha was one of the highlights of the show. Although Agatha’s story seemed to end after her kiss with Rio (Lady Death), it appears that her relationship with Billy isn’t finished yet.

While we hinted at how this might connect to a potential Scarlet Witch storyline, showrunner Jac Schaeffer has confirmed that we can expect to see more of Agatha and Billy in the future, which is sure to delight many fans of the series.

As mentioned, you probably know how it all ended. The Teen was revealed to be Wiccan, which many of us predicted, and Rio Vidal turned out to be Lady Death, another prediction we made. Meanwhile, Agatha walked down the Witches’ Road, which was a cathartic experience for her. After kissing Rio, she died but returned as a spirit to guide Wiccan.

This storyline is inspired by the comics, and many fans believe it could lead to a crossover with Wanda, who is expected to return in at least one future project. While the future is uncertain, we do have some insights from a recent interview that showrunner Jac Schaeffer gave to Entertainment Weekly.

The intention is that, yes, he got what he was missing in that he successfully put Tommy’s soul into a body of that young man who was the victim of a teen prank. You know how these things go, and we’ll see in future properties if they stick to that narrative.

We loved the idea that Agatha would fully step into her mentor role in her nasty, nasty way, and that she would help Billy harness one of his biggest powers: to bring his brother back. It was a tricky thing to shoot because Tommy was not cast at that time, and so we had to shoot it in an obscure way.

This statement confirms that even though the series has ended, there is still more to look forward to with both Agatha and Billy. Their roles have evolved, which may impact future developments, especially considering how the series has transformed over time.

We were building a really beautiful tapestry of what the Road was. We had really gorgeous ideas like all the trees on the Road were dead witches. Anyone who had died on the Road became a tree. Gorgeous ideas like that that were based on a lot of our really beautiful nature and witchcraft research. Then I thought, ‘What if he made it?’ And in that same thought was, ‘What if Agatha manipulated him into making it?’

After all that transpired in the series, the next question for Schaeffer was whether this was the end for Billy and Agatha. She gave us an exciting hint about what’s to come:

I can’t speak to the direct handoff to the Vision show, but I think that people are meant to expect more of Billy and Agatha somewhere in the MCU. I don’t know what’s going on with that show, and I just wish them well. I love Paul Bettany so deeply, and I can’t wait to see what they do.
