Kathryn Hahn’s children love the fact she’s part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
The 51-year-old actress reprised her role as Agatha Harkness in Disney+ series ‘Agatha All Along’ and she is “very proud” to be part of the comic book world, particularly because of the enthusiasm of her and husband Ethan Sandler’s teenagers Leonard, 17, and 15-year-old Mae.
She told Britain’s HELLO! magazine: “They love it, my daughter especially.
“My kids were my entrance into Marvel, so this is a big deal for all of us as a family, even if my son pretends he’s way too cool for it all.
“I feel very proud to be a small part of something so huge.”
Despite her success over the years, the former ‘Parks and Recreation’ star has found she gets recognised “way more” now as a result of playing Agatha.
She said: “It’s been a transition. When we did ‘WandaVision’ [during Covid-19], we were all still going out with face masks on.
“But as time has gone on, I’ve been recognised way more than I used to.
“I feel very grateful that we have such awesome fans.
“I’m not on social media, but I’ve seen so many wonderful messages from fans.”
Kathryn was delighted to come back as Agatha for a whole new series following her turn in 2021’s ‘WandaVision’.
She said: “I loved the whole experience as Agatha, but I had no idea I would be asked back, let alone for something more focused on hre.
“She has changed. She’s still a witch through and through but she’s not as driven by being cruel as she used to be.
“She still wants power, she’s still mean, but she’s not as determined to do it all alone…
“I love doing witchy stuff. A witch is a powerful, mysterious, terrifying and mischievous woman. That’s pretty badass, in my book.”
