Wiccan Revealed! Joe Locke Teases Agatha: Coven of Chaos' Explosive Finale!
Agatha: Coven of Chaos: Joe Locke on the Wiccan Reveal and What's Next!
Holy moly, folks! Agatha: Coven of Chaos finally revealed Teen's true identity as Marvel's Wiccan – and actor Joe Locke (who you might know from Agatha All Along) is spilling the tea on what's coming next for this unbelievably powerful character! The show's already halfway through; the stakes couldn't be higher for Agatha Harkness and her coven of witches and a shocking and well-received revelation occurred at the very end of the fifth episode; showcasing this surprise ending that no one seemed to see coming and revealing much of that anticipated and very long speculated twist!
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Locke opens up about the huge moment everyone learned that Teen is Wiccan and also teases Wiccan's enormous future in the MCU. Here's what he said: "I'm in the U.K. The episode drops at 2:00 a.m. I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep, so I'm just going to drug myself and then wake up to my phone blowing up, which it did. The thing that I've kept so secret, guarding it with my life is now just in the ether. The show starts with Billy being very much the familiar, the secondary to all the witches. Now we know he is also a witch, and that changes things. Also, we now know that he has the ability to cause harm to them. Therefore, he is now the most powerful person on the Road. What does that change in the dynamic of the group and how does that change the future of those relationships?"
