The identity of Agnes' husband, Ralph, because something of a weekly talking point for WandaVision fans. We all suspected from the start that she was really Agatha Harkness, of course, so surely "Ralph" had to be a character like Mephisto or Nightmare?
Well, those were good theories, but we'd later learn that he was, in fact, not her husband at all, and instead just some random Westview resident who lived in the house she decided to take over.
The oddly named Ralph Bohner was a man-cave loving wannabe actor who Agatha would later use to fill in for Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver. That was done in the hope he could be used to get some information out of Wanda about how she had created the Hex around Westview.
Of course, a lot of fans weren't happy about this, especially as Ralph was played by Dark Phoenix star Evan Peters. His Marvel Cinematic Universe debut didn't signal the introduction of mutants or the Multiverse in WandaVision, and Deadline asked showrunner Jac Schaeffer if the actor has a future as Pietro.
"What I can say is that I think Evan Peters did an incredible job with this role," she replied, "and I found it to be such a joy to both work with him and watch him on screen, and you know, as a fan, I’m interested to see whatever he does next."
Given the fact that he is just Ralph Bohner (heh, "boner"), chances are that's it for the actor, though we are still hoping to see that Señor Scratchy scene.
"The idea is that Agatha came to town and took over the neighbor’s house in order to sort of be undercover, and there happened to be a young man named Ralph Bohner who was already living in Westview," Schaeffer added. "In the writers’ room, we enjoyed writing Agatha’s sense of humor, and so the idea that she would actually be talking about her hostage through the entirety of the series really tickled us."
Things may not have played out the way some wanted, but there's no denying that this was a clever use of Peters (it's also not a bad thing that Marvel Studios won't be making Fox's X-Men canon).
