Presently, MCU is going through one of its worst stages after most of its recent projects failed to impress the audiences. Despite their efforts to scale up their projects in the post-Endgamephase, things are only going downhill as of now. The latestSecret Invasionseries was a clear indication of Marvel’s degrading quality. Looks like another blow is on its way to hit the Kevin Feige empire as reports suggest thatWandaVision’sspin-off and spiritual successorAgatha: Coven of Chaoscan come under the radar of the writers’ and actors’ strike.
The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes have moved Hollywood to somewhat of a shutdown after most of its ventures are put to a halt. Almost every day, a new project is announced to be delayed due to the studios’ negligence in fulfilling the demands of their workers. As most of the big releases have halted their production and reflect a bleak future ahead, another MCU project becomes its victim.

WandaVisionwas MCU’s first voyage in the vast ocean of web series. It kicked off a new era where the stories started to be intertwined among the movies and web series to give birth to a massive outcome. Although it can’t be said that they have been totally successful in that after most of their Disney+ shows failed to leave up the hype, theElizabeth Olsenshow received praise due to several factors.
When it was announced that the witch Agatha Harkness would get a show of his own, the fans looked forward to getting many answers that were left unanswered inWandaVision.Later, it was announced that the show would act as the second season of the first MCU Disney+ show. But now as the strike has started to hunt every upcoming project, Cosmic Circus reports another MCU project to be the prey of it.
While the superhero fans have to wait longer for their questions to be answered, it is also to be noted that the writers and the actors are the wheels of this massive vehicle. By the looks of it, the situation doesn’t look good as the studio giants aren’t ready yet to accept the demands. TheKathryn Hahnshow will likely join the list of delayed ventures. However, it can’t be said that this was the only potentially disappointing update as another report also establishes a connection between the upcoming show andSecret Invasionthat doesn’t look alright.
