Aubrey Plaza is rumored to be among the cast of Marvel Studios' Agatha: Coven of Chaos.

The new was broken by The Illuminerdi and later confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter.

As is typical with early Marvel casting calls, little is known about Plaza's role in the piece.

Plaza initially broke out as a comedic actor on the tv series Parks & Rec, where she also worked with Coven lead Kathryn Hahn. She has appeared in numerous films and TV series since, most recently seen in the current season of White Lotus.
