00:00 I was so patient, waiting for you to reveal your true self.
00:08 We knew we had something special on our hands,
00:10 but I think we were all flabbergasted by the reception.
00:15 People were hungry for something that felt nostalgic
00:20 and something that everybody could sit around and watch
00:24 and wait for on Friday nights.
00:26 Friday nights, like who stays at home on Friday nights
00:28 and watches something with their family?
00:30 You have no idea what you've unleashed.
00:33 You're going to need me.
00:34 You know, I started talking to Marvel
00:40 about developing something else.
00:41 And so we had early conversations about,
00:44 you know, what could that be?
00:45 And maybe it's this property, and maybe it's this property.
00:47 And everything that I pitched included
00:49 a storyline about Agatha.
00:52 I remember Kevin saying to me, like, we really should think
00:54 about an actual Agatha show.
00:57 And I was like, where do I sign for that job?
01:00 Yeah.
01:00 We got this.
01:01 We got it.
01:02 The character is so deep and heartfelt and dangerous.
01:07 And continuing the story of Agatha
01:09 and getting to know her more was immediately an imperative
01:12 for us as creatives.
01:14 There would be nothing more delicious to Agatha Harkness
01:18 than to be in a spin-off.
01:20 The whole thing made total sense to me,
01:23 and I was just so excited and thrilled.
01:26 I love you guys so much.
01:28 Love you, Kathryn.
01:28 Love you back.
01:30 To be playing a witch in the MCU is amazing.
