Can we get a scream Marvel fans? There was a big reveal at Comic Con for AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D., the big reveal being that Cobie Smulders will be reprising her role as Agent Maria Hill in Joss Whedon’s new TV show!
It was unclear to begin with whether Smulders would be joining the cast because of her commitments to HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, but it was thought that producers ABC Studios and Marvel Television had worked out a deal. At the moment she will only be making an appearance in the first episode but with HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER coming to a close, could we expect a much more permanent face in the next series? In a statement, Joss Whedon said:
“I wanted very much to have Cobie in the pilot because as much as anyone else, she IS SHIELD. She’s cool and commanding, and has the dry humor that plays so well with Clark’s. Also, if she’s in it I get to hang out with Cobie.”
We’ll take that as a yes then!
Fans at Comic-Con are getting a huge exclusive of the full episode one of AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. but as this news breaks, it is to believed that none of them actually know the news. What a surprise indeed!
