After three years of scheduling and name changes, Marvel has finally settled on a premiere date and title for Kathryn Hahn’s much-anticipated return to the MCU. It was never a “Coven Of Chaos,” a “House Of Harkness, or “Darkhold Diaries.” It was Agatha All Along—and she would’ve gotten away with it too if it hadn’t been for you meddling kids.

In a somewhat cheeky bit of advertising, Marvel hinted at the many name changes the show received over the last few years. Originally expected to bow in December last year, the show moved premiere dates and titles several times since Disney announced the series in 2021. Every time the show got an updated release, it seemed to get a new title, too. First announced as House Of Harkness in 2021, it was changed to Coven Of Chaos the following year. Marvel landed on The Darkhold Diaries in 2023 and used the overwhelming enthusiasm toward Secret Invasion to reconfigure the title. Now that the show has an official premiere date and teaser, we are confident that Marvel will change the title once more between now and September, but don’t hold us to that. In hindsight, we should’ve known the title all along.

The series is a direct spin-off from her performance on WandaVision, the first MCU show of the Disney+ era. WandaVision ended up setting a difficult standard for the rest of Disney+’s Marvel offerings. While WandaVision ended up a beloved part of the expansive franchise, winning three Emmys and heaps of critical praise, its successors weren’t so lucky. Only Loki joined WandaVision as a consensus hit, while the likes of She-Hulk and Secret Invasion hinted at a fracturing fanbase.

As it stands, the first two episodes of Agatha All Along will air on September 18 on Disney+ and will run for nine episodes.
