Marvel's most terrifying villain is finally coming to the MCU

It looks like one of Marvel’s most terrifying villains is finally coming to the MCU. God help us all!

If you’ve been watching the new and quirky Marvel series on Disney Plus, Agatha All Along, then you will know that it seems to be setting up a major villain reveal in the MCU. I’ll try not to give too much away but I will be talking about potential spoilers as we venture down the Witches’s Road.

Check out the Agatha All Along trailer below!

This week, we’ll be treated to the fifth episode of the nine-part series of Agatha All Along and while the mystery villain might be held back until at least the penultimate episode, it seems that seeds are being planted for a big Mephisto reveal, especially as the devilish demon was hinted at in episode three.

Also, it could be absolutley nothing but the spell cast on the "teen" that prevents him from saying his name does have some kind of writting across his mouth that slightly resembles an "M". Could this be Mephisto related, only time will tell?

Of course, this should still be considered as speculation and it could be way off the mark, but it’s not the first time that Mephisto rumours have been making the rounds. Fans expected Mephisto to make his presence known in WandaVision, a prelude to Agatha All Along but that never materialised.

As reported by Comicbook.com (via The Hollywood Reporter), writer, director and producer of Agatha All Along, Jac Schaeffer said concerning Mephisto:

“It was a conversation with executive producer Mary Livanos, [head of streaming for Marvel], Brad [Winderbaum, executive producer] and Kevin [Feige, MCU boss], but it is a mention that is larger than me and this show.”

She continued: “It is the larger Marvel-ness of it. So it is not about me bristling or having any kind of a reaction or agenda, mostly because that type of fevered discourse that is very, very rooted in the comics is not as interesting to me as the current story being told in the series at hand.”

I guess we’ll just have to be patient to see what unfolds in Agatha All Along but if Mephisto was to manifest, let’s just hope he’s a better version of what appeared in the Nicolas Cage Ghost Rider movies.

The fifth episode of Agatha All Along airs tomorrow on Disney Plus with its final two episodes concluding on 30 October 2024.
