The wicked witch is coming back! Marvel released another trailer for the upcoming series Agatha All Along, featuring Kathryn Hahn's iconic Agatha Harkness in the titular role. While Hahn is reprising her role, the new addition of Aubrey Plaza among the cast members has interested many enthusiasts.
After watching the teaser of Agatha All Along, netizens are speculating whether Plaza is playing Agatha's daughter Rio Vidal, a skilled sorceress like her mother, or Vivian Vision, the daughter of Vision.
Who is Viv Vision in Marvel? Agatha All Along's possible character explored
According to a fan's Reddit post, this Marvel theory suggests that if Plaza's character Rio Vidal is spelled backward, it will read as Ladi Vior or Lady of Sight. And we know that if there's mention of sight, there might be an involvement of a Vision family member, possibly Vivian 'Viv' Vision.
Viv Vision is an incredibly interesting character in the Marvel universe and hasn't appeared in the MCU yet. Viv is a synthezoid created by her father Vision, along with her twin brother, Vin Vision. Their brainwaves are the same as their parents, Vision and his wife Virginia.
These synthezoids were made by Vision who always desired to have a sweet family. However, their lives changed forever after Vision was offered a job to work with the Avengers and moved to Arlington with his family.
Throughout her life, Viv has navigated through several traumatic experiences like witnessing her twin brother's death, followed by Virginia killing herself. After these two deaths, Viv and Vision lived as a family, and later Vivian joined a superhero group called the Champions.
Viv has worked with Marvel's mightiest heroes including Ms. Marvel, Nova, Spider-Man, Hulk, and Cyclops. She then transformed into a human, after a villain caught her during a mission and changed her body.
So, if Aubrey Plaza plays Viv Vision in Agatha All Along according to the fan theory, and joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe, then it will undeniably captivate fans.
What role is Aubrey Plaza playing in Agatha All Along?
While it is believed that Aubrey Plaza will be seen as Rio Vidal, many Marvel enthusiasts still believe there's more about her role. Another fan theory in the same thread suggested that her character's name, Rio Vidal, means River of Life which could allude to Rio's connection with the Norns, who are mentioned in Thor comics.
In the comic books, the Norns are known for their exceptional healing powers and reversing age, as they protected the water of life. These mystical beings can amazingly heal wounds in no time, and maintain life.
So, according to the fan theory, if Rio is connected to the River of Life, she might be a Norn in disguise. After all, Agatha will lose her powers in Agath All Along and will require people who can help her regain the magic.
When will Marvel's Agatha All Along release?
After encountering several title changes, Kathryn Hahn's new series Agatha All Along will finally see the dawn of the day on September 18, 2024, on Disney+. We're just a few days into witnessing the skilled sorceress, desperate to regain wizardly wonders.

While Hahn is reprising the role of Wanda's notorious neighbor Agatha Harkness from Wandavision, other cast members include Joe Locke as the mysterious goth teen, Sasheer Zamata as Jen K, Patti LuPone as Lilia, and Ali Ahn as Alice.
