Agatha All Along creator Jac Schaeffer says she has “some regrets” about not including more of Agathario, the MCU’s new favorite ship.
“I have some regrets, but there are many things in the story that I feel are stories for another day, that are chapters for another day, and it’s part of the thing I love about our nonlinear approach,” Schaeffer toldHouse of R. “You can visit these characters and these stories all over the place at any time, but I apologize to the [Agathario] community.”
Over the course of the show, it was strongly implied that Agatha and Rio Vidal AKA Lady Death (Aubrey Plaza) were former lovers, but had grown distant from one another over the past century, or two, or three. Their tension-filled exchanges culminated in a passionate (albeit fatal) kiss, though – and the first lesbian kiss in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Unsurprisingly, fans went crazy for their romance, with many of them clamoring for more of the couple.
While Agatha Harkness and Rio Vidal are bothMarvel Comicscharacters, the relationship was written for the show. In the comics, however, Lady Death’s romantic partners include Thanos, Deadpool, and Ben Reilly AKA the Scarlet Spider. Comic book Agatha has a long-dead husband, though little is known about him.
