In the most recent trailer of “Agatha All Along,” a mysterious person was shown in a curious shot. With the season halfway through, things are looking grim for Agatha Harkness and her coven. They seem to have a sinking feeling about what’s to come. A new trailer might provide answers for the upcoming episodes, but it also raises more questions.

Who Was That Trench-Coated Man?

Marvel released a mid-season trailer for Agatha All Along on Monday, October 14. The trailer is packed with intriguing and spoiler-filled details. One of the most significant mysteries teased in the trailer is a single shot at the 51-second mark of a mysterious person. The person is seen from the back, wearing what appears to be a trench coat and a hat.

Now, the identity of this individual is completely unknown, but that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating and coming up with theories about who it could be. Some are wondering if it could be Mephisto, who is essentially Marvel’s version of Satan. He has a sinister appearance with crimson red skin. Mephisto was mentioned in the third episode of “Agatha All Along,” when Jen Kale revealed that Agatha once gave her own son to Mephisto.

If you recognize the name, it’s probably because during the release of WandaVision in 2021, fans kept connecting many of the show’s major events to Mephisto. However, Mephisto ultimately didn’t appear in WandaVision, which left many fans disappointed.

Could the MCU be planning to finally satisfy all those Mephisto enthusiasts from three-and-a-half years ago? Well, there are rumors that Borat star Sacha Baron Cohen is set to play the character in certain Marvel projects. However, it’s not confirmed whether Agatha All Along is one of them.

There is another theory suggesting that the person in the trench coat is Vision, specifically the rebuilt White Vision from the later episodes of WandaVision. He was last seen flying off to an unknown location, possibly on a journey to discover himself (or a Vision Quest). Considering the original Vision’s connection to Billy Maximoff, and the fact that Billy has been confirmed to be the true identity of Teen (Joe Locke) through Agatha’s marketing, it is possible that Vision has been drawn back to Westview due to his son’s emerging supernatural powers.

Other guesses, which can be quickly ruled out, include Michael Chiklis’ Ben Grimm from the 2005 Fantastic Four movie, who once wore a trench coat and fedora (surely, a Reed Richards-level stretch), and the shadowy “Stranger” character from the closing scenes of 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Not even the Multiverse Saga could make those suggestions fly.

Whoever this mysterious player may be, they already feel akin to WandaVision’s infamous Beekeeper from its second episode. Hopefully, a more narratively satisfying answer is provided for the face behind Mr. (or Mrs.) Trench Coat.

Marvel Television’s Agatha All Along releases new episodes on Wednesdays, with the next one coming on Wednesday, October 16.

Mephisto was officially revealed in the MCU in “Agatha All Along” Episode 3 after years of speculation about his debut. In the world of Marvel Comics, Mephisto essentially serves as the devil and has long been rumored to join the on-screen franchise in some form. This speculation dates back to the days of “Wandavision” when Mephisto became a popular name for speculating about who might have been behind Wanda’s spell-binding plight.

Mephisto Finally Gets His MCU Reveal

In Episode 3 of “Agatha All Along,” a Marvel Comics character, Mephisto, was revealed to exist in the MCU. The character was mentioned in a conversation between Sasheer Zamata’s Jennifer Kale and Joe Locke’s mysterious Teen. Zamata’s character, a centuries-old witch, warned the young boy about the selfish and ruthless actions of Agatha (Kathryn Hahn). Kale told the Teen to “watch your back with Agatha,” revealing to both Locke’s character and the audience that the series’ villainous witch “traded her own child for the Book of the Damned” (also known as The Darkhold).

“No one really knows what happened to him,” she continued. This is when she finally namedrops The Lord of Evil for the first time in the MCU, suggesting, “They say he might be… an agent of Mephisto.”
“No one really knows what happened to him. They say he might be dead. Others say he might be a demon or an agent of Mephisto. But hey, that is what happens when you have Agatha Harkness as your mom, right? I doubt she would recognize her own son if he showed up at her doorstep.”

The conversation ends there without any further explanation from Kale, but it opens up a whole Pandora’s box of demonic possibilities for both the series and the MCU at large.

What Does the Mephisto Name Drop Mean for Agatha?

After years of speculation about when Mephisto would officially join the MCU, fans may finally have their answer. Although the character has yet to take on any sort of corporeal form in the franchise, his name has been mentioned, meaning he is officially on the board.

The context in which his name came up is interesting. This conversation between Jennifer Kale and the yet-to-be-named Teen is a personal moment between the two and almost gives the impression that Kale may be insinuating that the Teen himself could be the long-lost son of Agatha’s.After years of speculation about when Mephisto would officially join the MCU, fans may finally have their answer.

I think it would be interesting if Joe Locke’s character in the series turned out to be either an agent of Mephisto or Mephisto himself. This idea is especially intriguing considering the build-up of Joe Locke’s character in “Agatha All Along,” which led fans to believe he could be Wanda Maximoff’s son Billy. It would be a surprising twist to have the character initially assumed to be Wanda’s son, only to reveal that he is actually Agatha’s.

There have even been theories suggesting that the “M” that occasionally binds Tesn’s mouth could be connected to Mephisto. This could be a coincidence, but it may also be a hint of a potential devilish turn for the character. Whether Tesn is related to Mephisto or not, it seems like Agatha is setting itself up for a proper introduction to the iconic Marvel villain. It was previously reported that Mephisto would have a significant part in the upcoming Ironheart series. So, Agatha’s potential involvement with the character could serve as some nice narrative table-setting for that future streaming story. Agatha All Along continues to debut new episodes on Disney+ every Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET.
