Showrunner Change: Originally, Jac Schaeffer was set to run the series, but earlier this year, Terry Matalas took over the role. Schaeffer confirmed she’s no longer involved but wished the team well: “Paul’s a dear friend and an extraordinary person. I’m not involved, but I’m rooting for it.”

Will Agatha All Along Connect to Vision?

Bettany’s comments suggest there could be some ties between the Vision series and Agatha All Along.
