Details about ABC's S.H.I.E.L.D tv series have been few and far between, we've known the cast, and a loose idea, but nothing concrete had been revealed until now. Recently ABC's All Access, called a media planning and buying resource, released information on Joss Whedon's series, as well as revealing the actual name of the show, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. The information below reveals what was on the press release, read on to learn more.
Joss Whedon (MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) shows
us not all heroes are super with MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.
Fresh from his role in the summer’s box office smash, MARVEL’S THE
AVENGERS, Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) returns to the worldwide law
enforcement organization S.H.I.E.L.D. He puts together a small, highly trained,
team of Agents to tackle the cases that haven’t been classified yet, the new, the
strange and the unknown. That team consists of straight arrow Agent Grant
Ward (Brett Dalton), an expert in combat and espionage; pilot and martial artist
Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen); and brilliant if socially awkward scientists
Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth
Henstridge). They’ll be joined by civilian new recruit and computer hacker Skye
(Chloe Bennet).
Prepare for an epic adventure that showcases the hope and wonder of the
human spirit. This is a world of Super Heroes, aliens and the unusual – of
action, spectacle and world spanning stories. The show will speak to the human
condition through the lens of our very human, non-powered S.H.I.E.L.D agents
– that together we are greater than we are apart, and that we can make a
difference in the world.
Executive Produced and co-written by Joss Whedon, Jed Whedon & Maurissa
Tancharoen (Dollhouse, Dr.Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog), Jeffrey Bell (Angel, Alias
) and Jeph Loeb (Smallville, Lost, Heroes) comes Marvel’s first live-action TV
series, MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.
We'll learn more in the months to come, but Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D was already a can't miss series for Marvel and Joss Whedon fans alike. If interest wasn't already at fever pitch, just imagine as we start to learn more in the weeks to come. ABC has a hit on their hands, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D looks like it'll be a series that no one will dare want to miss.
