The actress shared that showrunner Jac Schaffer rejected the idea of a Season 2, just like she turned down a second season of “WandaVision.”
Patti LuPone revealed that Agatha All Along won’t have a Season 2. She said showrunner Jac Schaffer informed her about Lilia Calderu’s fate before the show ended.
There won’t be one, Jac Schaeffer, the creator, came into my trailer and she said, ‘Patti, I’m just here to tell you that Lilia’s going to die,’ and I went, ‘But I wanted a second season.’
LuPone told Bravo executive Andy Cohen on his Sirius XM podcast series Andy Cohen Live.
LuPone explained that Schaffer had the same reason for not doing a second season of Agatha All Along as she did for turning down WandaVision.
[Schaffer] said, ‘I don’t do second seasons,’ She said, ‘They wanted me to do a second season of WandaVision, and I didn’t.’ She said, ‘There’s too much to write,’ so she does one-offs, and I’m really hoping and praying that someday I get to work with her again because she’s magic.”
LuPone shared.
News outlets reached out to Marvel and Schaffer for comments, but neither responded right away.
