Kathryn Hans Enjoys Being The First Woman In MCU To Showcase Nudity.

It’s rare to expect Marvel to show nudity, but when they do, it's iconic, whether it be Chris Hemsworth's chiselled back in Thor: Love and Thunder or Tom Hiddleston’s torso in Loki series. However, there was never a female actor to express nudity in the Marvel Cinematic Universe until Agatha showed up.

Agatha All Along star Kathryn Hahn reprised her role from WandaVision as the Witch Agatha Harkness, who, in the first episode, made Marvel history by being the first woman to be butt naked on the screen. While appearing in a recent interview, she revealed that it was her idea to be nude. “When we see Agatha at the beginning, she's completely without her powers, and she has to bust out of the spell with help from some mysterious characters,” she said.

When asked about her part in the scene, she said, “When she first realises it, I think the description was like, 'she puts on a robe and goes outside.' I was like, 'I wonder if she would put on a robe? Because she's in a feral state.' I think she was just feral. She wouldn't even be thinking of who she is,” she said.

The nudity in the first episode was filmed not just for comedic relief but also to showcase the state of mind she was in after finding out that she had lost her powers and had been under a spell for three years. She revealed that she used a lot of double-sided tape during the scene, and she laughingly said, “So every time I moved, it was like squeak, squeak, squeak. But it was deemed necessary."

She also recalled not knowing that she would be the first woman to be butt-naked on a Marvel project. She said, “I didn't know it at the time, but also to know it's behind Thor is pretty great. Thor and me. Just our butts encased in gold — that's my dream.” Her scene was not only loved by her but also by her fans. Now, with seven episodes in Agatha, a character has become a beloved among the fanbase.

The series will release its last two episodes on 31 October, 12:30 PM IST. All previous episodes are available to stream on Disney+Hotstar.
