Fresh to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Hollywood star Aubrey Plaza has boldly raised the stakes about the forthcoming quality of her new Marvel Disney+ show, ensuring audiences eagerly anticipate its arrival.

While MCU enthusiasts are still anxiously awaiting the revelation of her role in the series, the Parks and Recreation actress Aubrey Plaza is already among the most hotly-debated Marvel newcomers in the Multiverse Saga preceding her upcoming Disney+ show.

She's already won substantial backing from seasoned MCU actors, including her former Parks and Rec co-star Chris Pratt, hinting at the commendable performance she's set to bring to her first foray into the superhero genre.

In a revealing dialogue with The Hollywood Reporter, Aubrey Plaza, a recent entrant to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, shed light on how her forthcoming Disney+ series, Agatha: Coven of Chaos, could stand as a pinnacle of Marvel's offerings to date.

The excitement brimming in her voice was palpable as she shared her enthusiasm about teaming up with Kathryn Hahn, the charismatic actor essaying the role of Agatha Harkness, lauding the show as representing the "most sophisticated Marvel material" in the franchise.

Elucidating her sentiments further, Plaza heightened expectations for her show, articulating that it would set a lofty standard within the MCU. The admiration for her co-star, Hahn, is clear, fueling speculation about the dynamic synergy they could bring to the screen.

"'Coven of Chaos' was so fun. I wanted very much to work with Kathryn Hahn, I think she's so great. And without saying anything really, I had a blast. I loved my character in that as well, and I think it's the most elevated Marvel material that's out there. So, it was cool to jump into that world with those people specifically."

Adding intrigue to the anticipation, whispers around the industry suggest Plaza may assume the mantle of the primary antagonist in Coven of Chaos, a formidable member of Agatha's coven, as the series narrative gradually unfurls. This potential role promises a captivating performance, one that is sure to keep fans riveted.

Springing from one of the MCU's most beloved Disney+ series so far, WandaVision, which also marked the franchise's inaugural Disney+ offering, expectations are sky-high for what Coven of Chaos can deliver.

The Emmy-winning performance of Kathryn Hahn as the villain in WandaVision, and her pairing with Aubrey Plaza, are already stirring excitement among fans.

This sentiment is equally shared by Plaza, who continues to fuel the hype surrounding the "significantly influential role" she will portray when she enters the realm of MCU's top-tier stars.

Given the actress's description of the show's material as "elevated," particularly amidst the delays plaguing this series and other MCU projects, Plaza's optimism should only further contribute to the show's potential as a Marvel triumph.

Agatha: Coven of Chaos is slated to premiere on Disney+ sometime in 2024.
