Marvel fans are buzzing with excitement as rumors swirl about Pedro Pascal’s upcoming Fantastic Four movie. This movie is a complete reboot of the Fantastic Four franchise, featuring a new cast and storyline. It is set in the 1960s and may even be in an alternate universe.
The hype began when a post started circulating on X, which was a picture of the upcoming movie’s set. Shockingly, the observant fans spotted a familiar name among others, which could possibly connect this film to another popular Marvel TV show.
The Westview connection: are the two connected?
It all started with a picture of the movie’s set being posted on social media. It was bright and set as a period piece. But what didn’t go unnoticed was one name: Westview. The same quaint town where another Marvel show, WandaVision‘s events unfolded. The appearance of this name made the rumor mills go wild.

Westview is more than just a suburban town; it’s a nexus of dark magic, alternate realities, and supernatural forces. The inclusion of this name in the Fantastic Four: First Steps movie’ set may not be a happy coincidence. Though nothing is confirmed yet, fans did start hoping for a cameo.
Since WandaVision was such a popular MCU show, fans are speculating that they may introduce a character in Pedro Pascal‘s film to create a crossover. Agatha Harkness, played by Kathryn Hahn, a dark and powerful witch, was one of the central characters in the show. Her role was so impactful that it has fans wishing for her reprisal in the new Fantastic Four movie.
Hopefully we’re getting 60s Agatha as the kids’ nanny !!!! 🤞🏼😭

Since the new movie is set in a different timeline, it may explore past events or an entire different dimension involving the mystical witch. Her fans on social media are eager to witness a younger Agatha set in the 1960s.
Endless possibilities but no confirmation
While nothing has been confirmed yet by the film’s director, Matt Shakman, or the actors, fans are creating multiple theories. The possibility of Agatha Harkness‘s cameo, or maybe even a larger role in the new Fantastic Four movie, has fans salivating.
OMG AGATHA BABYSITTING CONFM????

But for now, it’s just a tantalizing rumor, one with no other basis except a picture of the set. While previous Marvel movies featured an interconnected storyline, even Deadpool & Wolverine had several cameos. So given their track record, fan’s wishes might come true.
