Marvel has been having some fun with its fans over the past few days, though now they have finally settled on a title for their WandaVision spin-off: Agatha All Along.

The show was first put into development in October 2021 as an untitled WandaVision spin-off starring Kathryn Hahn as her nefarious character Agatha Harkness.

What followed was a string of different titles - first Agatha: House of Harkness in November 2021, then Agatha: Coven of Chaos in July 2022, then Agatha: Darkhold Diaries in September 2023.

The studio seemed to be trolling fans on Monday when they posted yet another title card: Agatha: The Lying Witch with Great Wardrobe, an obvious reference to C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe.

Now the cat is out of the bag, with the studio parading its string of previous titles in a new social media post before revealing the (presumably) final title: Agatha All Along.

Marvel also announced that Agatha All Along with debut September 18 with a two-episode premiere only on Disney Plus.

Kathryn Hahn's Agatha debuted in the 2021 TV series WandaVision, first known as Agnes, the nosy neighbor to Wanda Maximoff a.k.a. Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany).

It was revealed towards the end of the nine-episode series that Agnes was actually an ancient witch dubbed Agatha Harkness, who has come to investigate the mythical hold Wanda has put over the town of Westfield.

While trying to obtain her magic, Agatha battles with Wanda, who prevails, stripping Agatha of her powers and trapping her inside the 'Agnes' persona. 

This new series will be set after the events of WandaVision, following Agatha/Agnes as she tries to regain her powers.

The series takes its title from a song released during the seventh episode of WandaVision, when Agatha's nefarious nature was revealed.

The catchy tune - which plays over the Instagram announcement - actually went viral and even topped the music charts as well.

The Agatha All Along song topped the iTunes Soundtrack charts and debuted on the Billboard Digital Song Sales Charts at #36.

Joining Hahn from WandaVision will be Debra Jo Rupp as Sharon Davis and Emma Caulfield as Dottie.
