Evan Peters could return to the MCU for more projects beyond Agatha All Along, per industry scoopers. In Agatha All Along Episode 6, Peters reprises his role as Ralph Bohner, a character that originated in the 2021 miniseries WandaVision. Notably, the actor previously portrayed Peter Maximoff / Quicksilver in Fox’s X-Men movie series.
Evan Peters will allegedly return to MCU following Agatha All Along cameo
A new scoop from the entertainment industry claims that Peters’ Ralph Bohner could appear in more MCU projects after Agatha All Along.
According to @MyTimeToShineHello, the character “will return again,” though not in the Kathryn Hahn-led series. The scooper quoted one of their previous posts on X (formerly Twitter). In it, they accurately claimed that Bohner was making a return in Episode 6.
Check out the X post below:
Initially in WandaVision, Peters’ character is established as Agnes’ unseen husband, before he appears as Wanda’s brother Pietro. Previously, Aaron Taylor-Johnson portrayed Pietro Maximoff in 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. It is later revealed that Evan Peters’ “Pietro” is actually a Westview resident named Ralph Bohner.
Agnes / Agatha Harkness had magically forced Bohner to pretend to be Wanda’s brother. Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) eventually helps him escape Agatha’s control by taking off his magical necklace. Bohner reappears in Agatha All Along Episode 6. The intermediate three years haven’t been kind to him.
Moreover, Bohner has understandably become quite paranoid because of his experiences during the Westview anomaly. Searching answers about himself, Joe Locke’s William Kaplan, accompanied by his boyfriend Eddie, meets up with Bohner. He tells them about what transpired in Westview three years ago.
In April 2012, Jac Schaeffer, the creator of WandaVision and Agatha All Along, explained Peters’ MCU casting during her appearance on The Empire Film Podcast. “We had a grief counselor come to the [writers] room, and we did some research on grief, and there’s a lot about how people remember faces,” she explained.
Schaeffer added, “The anxiety of not remembering the faces of your loved ones, misremembering, or actively misremembering things as a self-preservation tactic – all of that became fascinating to us, and we thought that by casting Evan [Peters] in the role, it would not only have that effect on Wanda, but it would have this meta layer for the audience, as well.”
Perhaps, as the MCU continues to expand, its storytellers would find more use for Evan Peters’ Ralph Bohner, leading to more appearances, just as the scooper claimed.
