The “S.H.I.E.L.D.” pilot is going to be all about Agent Coulson.
Though Clark Gregg’s beloved, by-the-book agent seemingly met his tragic death in the 2012 blockbuster hit “The Avengers,” Agent Coulson will be at the center of the new Marvel television show produced by Joss Whedon.
“We all love Clark Gregg, there’s no doubt about that,” Whedon said via taped message to attendees at New York Comic-Con in October 2012. “From before we made ‘The Avengers,’ we discussed whether there was a way for him to be a part of the Marvel Universe, perhaps a part of a TV show even after his death.”
