Agatha All Alonghoto by Chuck Zlotnick
Just in case it wasn’t clear, Kathryn Hahn isn’t looking to say goodbye to Agatha Harkness any time soon.
The actress celebrated her very first Golden Globes nomination Monday morning, receiving a nod in the Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series — Musical or Comedy category for her role as the titular witch in Marvel’s Agatha All Along.
Amid speculation about a Season 2 renewal, Hahn mentioned in a recent interview that the series finale of Agatha All Along was a satisfying way to “say goodbye.”
But, on Monday she clarified to Deadline, “I think I meant that we were very satisfied by the way that Agatha All Along ended the arc of that story being told there.”
She continued: “I think everyone would be thrilled to come back, of course, in any capacity. It was a very life altering, deep experience in Atlanta, Georgia, with just this very small cast on the soundstage, day after day after day.”
Hahn’s nomination is one of two for Marvel at this year’s Globes, along with Deadpool & Wolverine for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. It’s not every day that Marvel receives recognition from the major award shows, particularly in acting categories.
“I’m so proud, and I’m so thrilled for Marvel. They were so supportive of this tiny, fabulous, female- and queer-led show,” Hahn gushed on the heels of the nomination, adding that she hopes the recognition will be a “buoy” for investment in diverse, character-driven stories, even from the bigger franchises.
Hahn, who spent the weekend at Disneyland narrating the Candlelight Processional, said she had forgotten that Golden Globe nominations were being announced on Monday, which was a nice surprise to start the week.
How will she celebrate?
“We were going to pick out our Christmas tree tonight. I don’t know. I mean, life just goes on, and I’ve got kids, so I’m hoping I have a glass of champagne tonight,” she laughed. “Maybe I’ll buy myself flowers. The whole thing is really giddy, then you just immediately feel like, ‘Okay, I can’t wait to get back to work.’”
