The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) keeps surprising fans, and Agatha All Along, the WandaVision spin-off, is no exception! The latest episodes revealed some shocking information that may just alter the whole MCU going forward!
Teen Revealed As Wiccan
For the first four episodes, a character named Teen (played by Joe Locke) remained shrouded in mystery! Viewers were teased with hints about this special character! We were wondering about his history, why he chose to be in Agatha Harkness' coven, along with witches such as Lillia Calderu (Patti Lupone), Jennifer Kale (Sasheer Zamata), Alice Wu-Gulliver (Ali Ahn), Mrs. Hart (Debra Jo Rupp), and later Rio Vidal (Aubrey Plaza). The main mystery? Teen can't even say his name without covering his mouth, a hint to those paying close attention that there is more to the story!
Fans were speculating about what was next, with rumors that this person may have been Agatha's son, Nicholas Scratch, However, that mystery got busted wide open. One of the coven members makes it super clear "the boy is not yours." This opened the doors for many fans to theorize that there could have been another twist.
The latest episode dropped and the suspense was too much for everyone!
That's right, Teen is actually the Scarlet Witch's son, Billy Maximoff also known as Wiccan or Billy Kaplan!
Wiccan's Hidden Identity
How did viewers know that Teen was Billy? It all comes down to how powerful these coven members were! There was a test given for Agatha and in the middle of things, something strange takes place! The trials, where Agatha tests her abilities goes wild when her mother possesses Agatha! The test puts the members in jeopardy as another powerful figure joins. It is Nicholas. Alice steps up and as this power gets siphoned and used. This created a moment where Teen stepped up with some strong and incredibly powerful actions that helped us figure things out!
The words between Agatha and Teen spoke volumes!
- Teen: "So that’s what it means to be a witch? Killing people to serve your own agenda? Not for me."
- Agatha: "Are you sure? You’re so much like your mother."
As these words hit everyone hard. A very intense reveal began.
- Magic erupted. We see Teen unleashes a blue energy from his fingertips

- Teen receives this amazing, glowing blue crown and for sure! There was only one conclusion!
The surprise, Billy, had a purpose. It wasn't completely unexpected, as the character knew more about his origins that what was revealed to us, hinting at his involvement for something deeper.
Wiccan's Powers Explained
Billy had shown these incredible powers! But no one knows exactly just what is possible with Billy Maximoff, even for seasoned watchers!
Fans have watched him take action in WandaVision! And it seems he really is more than many fans might realize. It makes this Agatha All Along so incredibly compelling! The young character showed the abilities to control people's actions. It looks a bit like possession!
- This seems similar to some of Wiccan's comic powers.
- He is also incredibly talented with using telekinesis
For sure, many fans who read Marvel Comics know exactly what Wiccan's full capabilities might be and Agatha All Along just may give a nod to this classic figure!
Wiccan in the Marvel Comics
In the Marvel Comics, Wiccan (another Billy Maximoff), inherits incredible magical skills from his mother, The Scarlet Witch.
It’s incredibly clear! The extent of his capabilities and those abilities seen in Agatha All Along have so much potential, especially as he might actually become the next, big character.
Billy Kaplan (another name for the powerful character) has incredible gifts, giving viewers something truly epic! If we consider Marvel's current vision, this show just might deliver something amazing for us!
- This young hero is capable of amazing things.
- There's precognition and telekinesis.
- Wiccan can even bend people to his will.
- His most memorable, impressive abilities! Include healing, flight and something even more crazy - reality warping!
While "Agatha All Along" may bring something fresh, many fans look to how the powers were portrayed to be super similar. What might catch your attention is that the MCU gives this new character a different style that’s shown differently. If we consider how these magical powers work for The Scarlet Witch you can see a striking contrast as Wiccan's abilities appear to show blue hues and not red, and just may become one of the newest magical talents of a completely new variety of magical power!
