Which Agatha All Along characters have a future in the MCU?
We've reached the end of the Witches' Road, but some of the best Agatha All Along characters have a whole lot more travelling to do in the MCU.
The Darkhold is now closed on Agatha All Along for now. After nine episodes of witchy chaos, the MCU's most villainous magick-wielder's story has been told. But, of course, that doesn't mean we won't see any of these characters again. In fact, where Marvel is concerned, you can bet on it.
So where did we leave the various key Agatha All Along characters? And can we expect to see them again in future projects? Let's give our tarot cards a good shuffle and see if we can divine the most likely people to show up again in the MCU, as well as where we might see them.
Note: There will, of course, be spoilers for Agatha All Along throughout this piece.
Agatha
Agatha died in the penultimate episode of the show, but any Marvel fan will tell you that there is no need for death to represent the end when it comes to the MCU. Just ask Robert Downey Jr. whether that's the case. In the final episode of Agatha All Along, she appeared to Billy Maximoff as a ghost and managed to convince him not to banish her to the afterlife.

Marvel would be very foolish to let Kathryn Hahn's exceptional performance disappear from its roster and the magical backdrop of this corner of the MCU provides ample opportunity for her to stick around as a spiritual guide to her unlikely friend. She and Billy have a quest to embark upon and their journey is only just beginning. On that note...
Teen/Billy Maximoff
The mystery of Teen's identity sat at the centre of the first half of Agatha All Along, but many were able to guess that he was actually Wanda's son Billy Maximoff. As seen in WandaVision, Billy has many of the same abilities as his mother in the realm of "chaos magic". Agatha All Along revealed that Billy reincarnated in the body of a teen who died in a car accident when Wanda's hex over Westview collapsed and he has decided to take on the Witches' Road in order to find his brother, Tommy.

Billy set off with Agatha at the end of the show, with both promising to find Tommy. Billy had managed to locate his brother's soul and push him into the body of a drowning boy. Thanks to actor Joe Locke's work in Heartstopper, he's very much a top hire for the MCU and he will definitely have a role to play going forward.
Along with Tommy, Billy is a key member of the Young Avengers team in the comic books. He harnesses his magic under the moniker Wiccan, while Tommy's lightning pace earns him the name Speed. In the final moments of The Marvels, we saw Kamala Khan begin to recruit this team, so it's inevitable that Billy and Tommy will eventually join the ranks. Their movie or TV series has not yet been announced, but it's only a matter of time.
Death
Initially introduced as Agatha's antagonistic ex-lover, we eventually learned that Aubrey Plaza's manipulative Rio was actually the MCU's take on Death. First introduced to comic fans in a 1970s Captain Marvel story, Death has been a part of Marvel on the page for a long time. In the 1991 comic series The Infinity Gauntlet, it's Thanos's romantic obsession with Death that drives him to snap half the universe out of existence by wielding the power of the Infinity Stones.

The Thanos connection doesn't currently exist in the MCU, but it's always possible that we could see the Mad Titan again. It's more likely, though, that this version of Death focuses on another of the character's comic book connections — a romance with Deadpool. The prospect of verbal and romantic sparring between Plaza and Ryan Reynolds should be an exciting one for us all. Either way, this won't be the last time we see Death in the MCU.
Wanda
Wanda doesn't actually show up in Agatha All Along but, of course, the events of WandaVision loom large over the story here. The last time we saw Wanda she was dead and buried under an enormous pile of rubble at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. But with her children seemingly returning to the main MCU universe, there's every chance we could see her again.

As of right now, Wanda hasn't been announced for an MCU return and Elizabeth Olsen would seemingly be quite happy if she never had to wave her arms around in front of a green screen ever again. However, she has made it clear that she loves the character and, let's face it, she's one of the most interesting figures in the Avengers line-up. If Billy and Tommy are on the board, Wanda may well join them.
Vision
Vision was also last seen in WandaVision, with his broken body resurrected in white form. At the end of the show, Wanda's fabricated version of Vision imbued the white version with all of his memories, causing him to fly off into the distance to ponder his future. We'll find out what happened next when Marvel's TV series Vision Quest — which now doesn't involve WandaVision and Agatha All Along creator Jac Schaeffer — arrives in 2026.

That's when we'll now see Vision again, but it will be interesting to see if the character will reunite with Wanda or with either of his children in the future. If the whole Maximoff clan is in the MCU at the same time, it would be bizarre not to stage an unconventional family reunion, wouldn't it?
Agatha All Along is streaming on Disney+ now.
