In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the character of Ralph Bohner, portrayed by Evan Peters, was introduced in “WandaVision” with a twist that left fans both puzzled and intrigued. Initially presented as the X-Men universe’s version of Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver, Ralph’s true identity and purpose were shrouded in mystery. It was later revealed that he was under the complete control of Kathryn Hahn’s character, Agatha Harkness, and was merely a pawn in her grand scheme. This twist not only shocked audiences but also added a layer of complexity to the narrative, showcasing the depth of Agatha’s manipulation and the extent to which she would go to achieve her goals.
The connection between Ralph Bohner and the character of Quicksilver from the X-Men universe was a deliberate misdirection by the show’s creators. This tactic played on the expectations of long-time Marvel fans, who were familiar with the character’s history and his relationship with Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch. The reveal that Ralph was not Quicksilver but a Westview resident named Ralph Bohner, controlled by Agatha, served to subvert these expectations and introduce a new dynamic to the story. It also highlighted the theme of identity and control, as Ralph was forced to play a role that was not his own, under the influence of a powerful sorceress.
In “Agatha All Along,” Ralph Bohner’s return provided further insight into his character and his experiences within the Hex created by Wanda Maximoff. Through a flashback sequence involving Billy Maximoff and his boyfriend, Eddie, Ralph shared his perspective on life in Westview under Wanda’s control. He described it as being trapped in a “weird, sad sitcom plot,” unable to act or speak on his own, likening it to “watching yourself on TV inside your own head” with no way to stop it. Ralph’s situation was particularly dire, as he was not only a victim of Wanda’s unintentional imprisonment but also of Agatha’s manipulation. He confessed to being “hijacked” by Agatha, forced to hold Monica Rambeau hostage, and to negatively influence Wanda and Vision’s children. This revelation not only deepened the audience’s understanding of Ralph’s character but also underscored the themes of power, control, and the consequences of manipulation that run throughout “WandaVision” and “Agatha All Along.”
