When Evan Peters reprised his X-Men role in a weird turn of events in Elizabeth Olsen’s WandaVision, fans were initially thrilled and genuinely surprised. However, their excitement quickly turned to disappointment upon learning that Peters was playing Ralph Bohner, an actor and a resident of Westview. According to the latest reports, Peters is set to make a return in the WandaVision spinoff, Agatha: Darkhold Diaries.
The report also provides some context to Peters’ character, suggesting that Ralph Bohner will be depicted as traumatized after escaping both Wanda’s Hex and Agatha’s dark spell. The new series will explore Kathryn Hahn’s villain character from Jac Schaefer’s miniseries.
Evans Peters Will Reprise His Role From Elizabeth Olsen’s Show In Agatha: Darkhold Diaries
Fans find themselves torn between hope and skepticism over the latest rumors from Kathryn Hahn‘s Agatha: Darkhold Diaries. According to scooper, @ScarletWitchUpd, Evan Peters‘ Ralph Bohner will return in the new spinoff series. While there were rumors about this potential appearance earlier, the new rumor suggests that the series will explore Ralph Bohner’s trauma from his experiences in WandaVision.

This news has sparked varied reactions among fans, especially considering the mixed feelings about the storyline involving Peters’ character in Elizabeth Olsen‘s miniseries. Fans were given hope that Peters might be a multiversal variant of his Foxverse character Quicksilver. However, toward the end of the series, Monica Rambeau discovers his ‘true’ identity, freeing him from Agatha’s dark spell.
Things will get more complicated (or interesting, hopefully!), as a recently released deleted scene from the show discusses another course of events. The scene depicts Peters’ character removing an ankle bracelet, hinting that he might be the missing person from Jimmy Woo’s Witness Protection Program case. If that’s the case, Peters may not be Ralph Bohner after all.
This deleted scene alone has created some interest among fans to see what happens next for the character. Fans have different theories, ranging from a Quicksilver variant theory to the possibility of him becoming Agatha’s accomplice in the upcoming series. Interestingly, rumors also suggest that Peters will reprise his Quicksilver role in the upcoming film Deadpool 3.
What Is Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha: Darkhold Diaries About?
In the series, Hahn’s character embarks on a quest to reclaim her powers after being trapped by Elizabeth Olsen’s spell in WandaVision. @ScarletWitchUpd reported that Agatha: Darkhold Diaries stands out as one of the darkest series within the MCU. The scooper expressed surprise at how Marvel let the series take such bold, creative choices. They also added that fans were in for several “surprising choices” and “dark turns”.
