Although Patti LuPone is officially part of the MCU, and there’s nothing they can do to take that away from us, don’t expect a Thanos snap to bring her back anytime soon.
The 3x Tony-winning actress explained why her Disney+ series Agatha All Along will not proceed with a second season, noting that she is “really hoping and praying” to work with creator Jac Schaeffer again.
“Jac Schaeffer, the creator, came into my trailer and she said, ‘Patti, I’m just here to tell you that Lilia’s going to die,’ and I went, ‘But I wanted a second season…’” she recalled on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM podcast.
“[Schaffer] said, ‘I don’t do second seasons,’” added LuPone. “She said, ‘They wanted me to do a second season of WandaVision and I didn’t.’ She said, ‘There’s too much to write,’ so she does one-offs and I’m really hoping and praying that someday I get to work with her again because she’s magic.”
After originating the titular character of Agatha Harkness in the Marvel parent series WandaVision, Kathryn Hahn told Deadline she’s hopeful to return to the MCU.

“I think everyone would be thrilled to come back, of course, in any capacity,” said Hahn in December. “It was a very life altering, deep experience in Atlanta, Georgia, with just this very small cast on the soundstage, day after day after day.
Agatha All Along follows Hahn as the witch, taking a group of other sorceresses (LuPone, Aubrey Plaza, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Debra Jo Rupp and Joe Locke) down the mythical Witches’ Road, which is supposed to provide them each with what they want most.
