D23 Expo blessed us with the Disney Entertainment Showcase, a two-hour extravaganza packed to the brim with Disney, Marvel and Star Wars news. In honor of the avalanche of trailers, posters and sizzle reels, we’ve compiled a list of our most anticipated reveals from the Star Wars and Marvel portion of the showcase.
Agatha All Along
Agatha All Along stars Kathryn Hahn, Aubrey Plaza, Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Debra Jo Rupp and Patti LuPone took to the D23 Expo stage to discuss the highly anticipated new Marvel series. The cast (sans Plaza) sang the Sacred Chant version of the series theme song, “The Ballad of the Witches Road,” by Oscar-winning songwriters Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. Additionally, we were blessed with the official trailer and a new poster.
Here’s a synopsis for the show:
“In Marvel Studios’ Agatha All Along, the infamous Agatha Harkness finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven and set off down, down, down The Road…”
