“WandaVision, the first live-action Marvel series to debut on Disney+, garnered critical acclaim, earning 23 Emmy Award nominations, including a nod for best limited series. Schaeffer was also individually nominated for an Emmy for outstanding writing for a limited or anthology series for the pilot episode.

Schaeffer is currently in post-production on “Agatha: Darkhold Diaries” for Marvel Studios, which stars Kathryn Hahn and serves as the follow-up to “WandaVision.” She serves as creator and showrunner, plus directed the pilot and several episodes of the series. It premieres on Disney+ this fall.

“I remember Kevin Feige saying to me, ‘We really should think about an actual Agatha show,’ and I was like, ‘Where do I sign for that job?’” Schaeffer said in a teaser for the series last year. While not much has been revealed about the plot, Hahn will be joined by Joe Locke, Aubrey Plaza, Patti LuPone and Emma Caulfield Ford, who will reprise her role as Dottie from “WandaVision.”
