This unprecedented live experience marks a new chapter for Disney+, bringing fans closer than ever to the excitement, glamour, and behind-the-scenes action of a red-carpet film premiere.

And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal. The action-adventure also stars Natasha Lyonne, Paul Walter Hauser, Sarah Niles, and Mark Gatiss.

In 2021, Disney+ aired nine episodes of “WandaVision”. The first Marvel Studios series created exclusively for Disney+, it starred Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, Paul Bettany as Vision, and Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, who was introduced to audiences in “Captain Marvel.” Kat Dennings reprised her role as Darcy from “Thor” and “Thor: The Dark World,” and Randall Park reprised his role as Jimmy Woo from “Ant-Man and The Wasp.” 

“WandaVision” was a blend of classic television and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision – two super-powered beings living idealized suburban lives – began to suspect that everything was not as it seemed. The series was directed by Matt Shakman with Jac Schaeffer as head writer. The composers were Christophe Beck and Oscar-winning songwriters Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez (“Frozen”).

While the series set up the MCU film DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, it also introduced the complex relationship between Agatha Harkness and Wanda Maximoff along with the actress that would become a fan favorite, Kathryn Hahn.

Today, Disney+ released a new trailer and poster for the upcoming Marvel Television live-action series, “Agatha All Along.” The series focuses on Kathryn Hahn’s character, Agatha Harkness, from the acclaimed Marvel Studios’ series “WandaVision,” as she sets off on a dangerous, mysterious adventure filled with trials and tribulations. Showrunner Jac Schaeffer, who was the creative force behind “WandaVision,” directs the pilot episode.

In “Agatha All Along,” the infamous Agatha Harkness finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…

In addition to Kathryn Hahn, “Agatha All Along” stars Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili, with Debra Jo Rupp, with Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza.

Special Look: Star Wars Series “Andor” – Debuts On Disney+ September 21 With 3-Episode Premiere 

Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) in Lucasfilm’s ANDOR, exclusively on Disney+. ©2022 Lucasfilm Ltd. & TM. All Rights Reserved.

Disney+ has released the thrilling, final “Andor” trailer as well as a Special Look at the upcoming series.

“The series is a prequel to ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,’” explains creator and showrunner Tony Gilroy. “It rewinds back five years from the events of ‘Rogue One’ to follow Cassian Andor on his journey to get to the movie. We’ve done twelve episodes for the first season. The twelve episodes that we’ve done cover one year in time. We’re going to do another twelve that are going to take us over the next four years into ‘Rogue One.’”

The series is from Academy Award® and BAFTA-nominated writer/director/producer Tony Gilroy, who also wrote Episodes 1, 2, 3, 11 and 12. Gilroy, who cowrote “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” is known for writing and directing the critically acclaimed feature films “Michael Clayton” and “The Bourne Legacy” and wrote the first three Bourne Films: “The Bourne Identity,” The Bourne Supremacy,” and “The Bourne Ultimatum.”

The music for “Andor” is by Emmy®-winning composer Nicholas Britell (“Succession,” “Moonlight”).

“Andor,” a spy thriller from Lucasfilm filmed over two 12-episode seasons, takes place five years before the events of “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.” The era featured in “Andor” is filled with danger, deception and intrigue where Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a rebel hero. “Andor” presents Star Wars from a different perspective, focusing on everyday people whose lives are affected by the Empire. The decisions they make have real consequences, and the stakes for them—and the galaxy—couldn’t be higher. 

The series stars Diego Luna, Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Forest Whitaker, Adria Arjona, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Fiona Shaw and Faye Marsay.
