Speaking with Collider about his
new film, Trust Me, actor Clark Gregg dropped some hints about the upcoming
second season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., including the mixed schedule that the
show will have with newcomer, Marvel's Agent Carter.
“It’s going to be low-fi. You’re going back to basics.
You’ve got to rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D. from the ground up in a much more dangerous
world where your group is outlawed. So it feels like the early, Sean Connery's
James Bond with the brass knuckles and not afraid to knock somebody off.”
“I thought there were so many things stacked against us last year,” said Gregg, “and one of them was where the ABC television schedule would put us on for three episodes and then take us down for four weeks. Nobody could get a momentum going and when the show started to be on consistently and having story that carried over in an episodic way, that’s when things started to click. So the great thing about the announcement was, A., we’re moving to nine, where it can be a little darker, like I think Marvel needs to be. Then they’re going to show, I believe it’s ten [Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes], eight of [Agent Carter], then twelve [more Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]…For the most part, this is straight runs of our show, which is when I think it really works.”
