Agatha: Darkhold Diaries', has unveiled its first glimpse, offering viewers a sneak peek into the magical realm of Agatha Harkness, portrayed by Kathryn Hahn. While not officially designated as Season 2, this series marks Marvel's return to Disney+ after the groundbreaking success of «WandaVision,» delving once again into the enchanting universe of witches and Westview. Throughout its development, the series underwent multiple title changes and adjustments to its release schedule.

Since 2008’s “Iron Man,” the Marvel machine has been one of the most unstoppable forces in box-office history. Now, though, that aura of invincibility is showing signs of wear and tear. The superhero factory hit a new low with the weekend launch of “The Marvels,” which opened with just $47 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The 33rd installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a sequel to the 2019 Brie Larson-led «Captain Marvel», managed less than a third of the $153.4 million its predecessor launched with before ultimately taking in $1.13 billion worldwide. The previous low for a Walt Disney Co.-owned Marvel movie was «Ant-Man», which bowed with $57.2 million in 2015.
