“Those shows were the ones that stuck with me. Like the fact that I could be laughing and also feel like (gasps with surprise) ‘Is this okay?’ at the same time were really titillating and also felt very anarchic and radical.”

As the fans might have guessed, Kathryn Hahn’s ideal show sounds exactly similar to the plot of WandaVision where the series starts as a normal sitcom but (in her words) feels “very anarchic and radical” towards the finale of the series!

While shooting WandaVision, the finale sequence of the series involved Elizabeth Olsen and Kathryn Hahn battling it out. Well, since Hahn had quite a heavy costume, the actress revealed in an interview with Variety that she had to take big bathroom breaks!

“When it was just the two of us working on the finale………… She was very patient as it took me like a solid 40 minutes to ’10-1’ … which in the movie business, is to urinate. I had a lot of costume on, and a very small bladder.”

With a high rating of 7.8/10 on IMDB and a whopping 91% on Rotten Tomatoes, WandaVision is available to stream on Disney+ in the U.S. As for Agatha: Darkhold Diaries, the series is slated to release in late 2024 with no release date confirmed.
