Speaking to ComicBook.com, former Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Grant Ward (Brett
Dalton) discussed his new predicament on the show, from prisoner to "man
on the run".
"I think ever since we found out Ward was a wolf in sheep’s clothing,
he’s been very interesting to watch. He’s a wild card, and in particular - this
season we have no idea what to expect. He has gone rogue! He has all of these
skills, knows how to use them and there's no stopping him. Before, there was
someone always telling him what to do and now, he’s his own boss.
Being on the run has its downsides too. I don’t get to be around the team
members as much as I’d like, but there is so much that the fans get for free.
Put Ward in a room with Fitz, and you get that feeling of betrayal. Put Ward in
a room with Skye, and you get the possible romance. Put Ward on screen with
Coulson and there’s the defiance. Those little undertones make it all worth it
for me and make it a blast to be a part of.
Now, with his allegiances ambiguous, it’s going to be very fun to see his
relationships with everyone on the show evolve in this new landscape. Will he
help? Will he fight? We’ll just have to see."
The ABC series took a turn when Captain America: The Winter Soldier came
out, but will take another one with Avengers: Age of Ultron?
"Well you know- we didn’t expect the title of our show to be called
into question when Captain America happened. Here we were, Agents of
S.H.I.E.L.D. and our organization is gone. Poof. We work for nobody now. Can
you get bigger than that when it comes to affecting the show?
We’re all on our toes this time around. Who knows, if Ultron decides to
show up on the show, that could be fun. All I know is, seeing those two minutes
have made me more excited for any movie ever. It's kind of crazy."
Finally the actor revealed what he wants fans to take away from Ward before
the season ends.
"I hope fans start to understand a little bit of Ward’s psychology. I
want them to understand his journey and the events that led to who he is. There
are a lot of things that happened in the very beginning that people just
assumed was “Evil Ward” and I think that’s unfair to Grant. It’s too
easy to go to."
