Title: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Post by: Saxman on May 20, 2013, 01:18:29 PM

Anyone else interested in seeing how this does? I think it's a VERY intriguing opportunity by Disney/Marvel. Yes, there's been TV spinoffs of films (and vice-versa) in the past, but I can't recall one that's been directly connected to an ongoing parent franchise in the same way as this would be. It would be ESPECIALLY cool if they're able to bring in characters like Fury, Thor, Black Widow and Iron Man for the occasional guest spot.

I'd actually love to see Fox do something similar with the X-Men franchise. A live-action TV series would be a great way to build up interest in some of the less familiar characters before bringing them into the films. X-23 especially would be a great character for a weekly hour-long series.

Clark Gregg will be reprising his role as Coulson...somehow (it's a comicbook show, death is a revolving door).
