With a new management having taken over earlier this year, they’re establishing what they’re going to do going forward with some projects from related company Marvel TV as they’ve given the axe to Agent Carter and passing on the pilot for Marvel’s Most Wanted. Agents of SHIELD previously got a renewal for the fourth season so that show is safe. Fans of Hayley Atwell won’t be too surprised this as she had a position in a new ABC drama series called Conviction which did get a pickup as the network wanted to treat her right since she’s been a great player for the Disney family for some time now.
With the pilot for Most Wanted, it got mixed reviews from those presiding over its fate and was passed over in favor of other more solidly choices in this view. Now we’ll wait and see if the two main actors are brought back into Agents of SHIELD after departing recently from there for the pilot.
Interestingly, this leaves no “bridge” show between Agents of SHIELD with its two halves, which means we could have quite the gap.
Agent Carter starred Hayley Atwell with recent confirms of James D’Arcy, Dominic Cooper and Enver Gjokaj as coming back and others being finalized.
Agent Carter Concept: Dedicated to the fight against new atomic age threats in the wake of World War II, Peggy must now journey from New York City to Los Angeles for her most dangerous assignment yet. But even as she discovers new friends, a new home — and perhaps even a new love — she’s about to find out that the bright lights of the post-war Hollywood mask a more sinister threat to everyone she is sworn to protect.
Marvel’s Most Wanted starred announced Adrianne Palicki, Nick Blood, Oded Fehr and Delroy Lindo as the announced actors.
The show was created and written by S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Jeffrey Bell and Paul Zbyszewski who executive produce with Jeph Loeb for Marvel Television and ABC Studios.
Most Wanted Concept: Centers on Bobbi Morse (a.k.a. Mockingbird) and Lance Hunter of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., two ex-spies and ex-spouses who are on the run with no friends, no S.H.I.E.L.D. and a long list of enemies looking to claim a bounty on their heads. Able to trust no one but each other, Bobbi and Hunter form an uneasy alliance with Dominic Fortune, a rogue adventurer with a wealth of resources and even more adversaries, who agrees to protect them so long as they help him with his own agenda. These two heroes will help anyone in need, all while trying to uncover the conspiracy that put their own lives in jeopardy.
