Agatha All Along comes out this week, and it does feature a small Parks and Recreation reunion for Kathryn Hahn (Jennifer Barkley) and Aubrey Plaza (April Ludgate). What’s fun is, the premiere of the series actually featured some more Parks cast reuniting.
Check out Amy Poehler (Leslie Knope) and Adam Scott (Ben Wyatt) meeting up with Hahn and Plaza at the red (rather purple) carpet:

Admittedly, Hahn was more of a recurring character on the series, but the main cast members were able to get a photo of just the three of them:

When it comes to the four cast members, it is worth noting that Plaza has spent her time the longest with Marvel, as she had been cast in FX’s Legion series even way before the Fox merger. Hahn has been onboard since WandaVision, and Scott was cast as Ben Parker (not officially) in Sony’s Madame Web.
Let’s also not forget that one of Marvel’s biggest stars, Chris Pratt, was in Parks and Recreation as the loveable idiot Andy Dwyer before he became Star-Lord:
So far, Poehler is the only one in the mini-reunion who hasn’t jumped the Marvel ship, but she’s doing pretty well being the voice of Joy in Pixar’s hit franchise Inside Out. I wouldn’t mind if they cast her as a Captain Marvel variant because she can definitely be Brie Larson’s older sister.
For now, fans are waiting to see just how Agatha All Along pans out. It definitely is embracing its camp and attuning to its intended audience, but there’s always a chance some ‘anti-woke’ fans will review-bomb it to hell.
Let’s hope the gays won’t let that happen.
Agatha All Along premieres on Disney+ this week.
