Debra Jo Rupp compares ‘Agatha: Coven of Chaos’ to ‘WandaVision’ and American Horror Story
Speaking to Berkshire Magazine, Jo Rupp said, “It’s the second season of Wandavision for Marvel. It’s very much like American Horror Story, where each season is a whole new kind of thing. I was shocked when they called me, because I really thought that would be it, and I was fine with that. But when they called, I got so excited because it’s a character I never get to play. She’s going to be great fun.” She added, “I am basically the same person that I was in Wandavision, Mrs. Hart, but in a different kind of thing. We’ve shot in LA, and I’m packing now as we speak to go to Atlanta for two months to continue shooting.“
The filming for the series started in January 2023 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, and concluded in June 2023. ‘Agatha: Coven of Chaos’ is a Disney+ show created by Jac Schaeffer.
