Christian Post Report – The cast of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Even if the Marvel TV series “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D” has yet to receive a firm renewal order for another season, rumors are circulating that a spinoff series is in the works. The show’s executive producer Jeffrey Bell and writer Paul Zybyszewski are “quietly working on the spinoff,” according to reports.
Another report in E! Online says that this move supposedly has the support of Marvel and ABC, although Marvel has yet to confirm if the news is true.
Entertainment Weekly, who first reported the news, could not specify yet which characters from the current series will be moving to the new series, or if new characters will be developed. They claim that the rest of the episodes in the current S.H.I.E.L.D. season will “lay the groundwork” for the new series. It also said that the new series will not be introduced via “a planted episode” which is a usual strategy employed. By the end of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 2, the spinoff plot is expected to be clearer.
As to when the spinoff will likely be ready for a TV premiere, the report predicted a fall premiere or maybe even a midseason premiere. But this may also be dependent on the network’s decision on other pilots that are being lined up in the coming TV season.
The possible third series will be added to Marvel’s growing TV universe. Aside from “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D,” it also has the “Agent Carter” series that stars Hayley Atwell as Agent Peggy Carter, a character from “Captain America.”
“Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D” is said to average 7.4 million viewers and has a 2.8 rating for adults between ages 18-49. “Agent Carter” is also waiting for a renewal order but according to the EW report, it has a 60 percent chance of renewal.
The E! Online report also cited that Marvel is also working with Netflix on other superhero series, starting with “Daredevil” to be followed by solo shows about three other superheroes and a team-up series.
