Marvel are in danger of killing the golden goose with so many movies and now 'meh' tv shows.

The Mirror can be a bit hit & miss at times:

“It means moving to LA for six months but her friends and family are all behind her, and this is a huge opportunity.” In October the actress, who has previously stared alongside Keira Knightley in the Oscar-winning 2008 film, The Duchess, addressed speculation about the mooted series.

Congratulations to her.

Kylo Ren

Calling it now. It won't make it to season 2.

I gave up on Shield after 4 episodes and I can't see what they can do with this and I was a massive Marvel fan growing up with roughly 5000 comics from 20 years ago

Is this going to Netflix aswell?

On the strength of the short this is based on, I have high hopes.

I do like Hayley Atwell...

If they can get Dominic Cooper as Howard Stark in then this really could be a winner.

I know he appeared in the one-shot so fingers crossed.

I hope we see some of the Howling commandos reprise their roles as well!

Agent Coulson

Neal McDonough doesn't look like he is in any up coming tv series on imdb so maybe Dum Dum Dugan might appear

Triplett in Agents would be a good way to link the shows as well having his grandfather in this.

It looks like Agent Carter is only getting an 8 episdoe run and will be shown in the midseason break of Agents of Shield.

This hopefully will be a good thing one story told over 8 episodes with no filler episodes fingers crossed.

heard that, it looks like well get a good 28 week block of marvel next season, the breaks really take away from the enjoyment of the show,

Agent Coulson

Dominic Cooper is in!

This just got a whole lot better

Atwell let slip that Cooper would be joining her on the set of “Agent Carter.”

Honestly, I want to see the script and outlines for this show; the short film was interesting 'n all, and Carter seems like a potentially much more interesting figure than some of the other SHIELD agents given her era, but ultimately it's all down to the words on the page

Cooper almost ruined Captain America for me. Ditto Mamma Mia. He has the kind of face that's screaming to be punched...

Enver Gjokak is an unreal actor; really hope he gets to show his chops.

I'd probably have given this a go anyway but with Gjokaj in it I'm now really looking forward to it. Can't wait to see him on screen again, he's fabulously talented.

It's Official: Dominic Cooper Boards ABC's 'Agent Carter'

:D

Marvel made the announcement Tuesday, confirming that the actor will reprise his role as Howard Stark from Captain America: The First Avenger. Cooper reprised the character in a cameo in Marvel's Agent Carter one-shot, which served as the origin story for what would become ABC'sAgents of SHIELD bridge sho

Marvel's Agent Carter, which premieres on Tuesday, January 6th at 8/7c on ABC, will kick things off with a two-hour premiere.

Agent Carter is now being called a "seven part" television event since this two-hour premiere is most likely the combination of two episodes, changing the initial reports of the show being eight parts.

It's 1946 and peace has dealt Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell), a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad. Working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), Peggy finds herself stuck doing administrative work when she would rather be back out in the field, putting her vast skills into play and taking down the bad guys. But she is also trying to navigate life as a single woman in America, in the wake of losing the love of her life, Steve Rogers – aka Captain America. When old acquaintance Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper, “Marvel’s Captain America: The First Avenger”) finds himself being framed for unleashing his deadliest weapons to anyone willing to pony up the cash, he contacts Peggy -- the only person he can trust -- to track down those responsible, dispose of the weapons and clear his name. He empowers his butler, Edwin Jarvis (James D'Arcy), to be at her beck and call when needed to help assist her as she investigates and tracks down those responsible for selling these weapons of mass destruction. If caught going on these secret missions for Stark, Peggy could be targeted as a traitor and spend the rest of her days in prison – or worse.

No channel this side of the world has picked it up yet.

Advantage of getting them as they air in the States is at least we know we get to see it when it's intended. So unless RTE and Channel 4 get it to air during the SHIELD break, then there could be stuff happening in SHIELD viewers won't get.

Agent Coulson

Teaser from episode 1.

The style of the show looks amazing.

flazio

Damn that RTÉ continuity announcer getting my hopes up for a second.
He said there was more from the Marvel universe to come, before announcing that Avengers Assemble would be airing over Christmas.

No it looks like neither have picked it up.

Netflix might because of there deal with Marvel if the others don't pick it up soon but thats just a guess.

Netflix won't be allowed to air it on their UK Ireland site as it airs on US TV, they'll have to wait for a few months.

If they buy the rights they can air next night. They did it with breaking bad when no one picked up the rights to that show one episode a week

Agent Coulson

That was so fun and I loved the whole feel and style of post WW2 America.

Joeface

Have not got around to viewing yet , usually give new series 3 eps and decide then.
But is Agent Carter really just Marvel flooding its own market .

Nervous Wreck

Gonna watch this later. Anyone who's seen it able to tell me if it follows directly from the one shot of same name or incorporates parts of it or what? Haven't watched the one shot in a while so will probably watch them back to back.

follows on almost directly includes clips of it and the film to show what she was up to...

Machismo Fan

Very good first two episodes. Setting really helps set it apart from the rest of the Marvel stuff and Atwell is great.

Ludo

I'm about 6 episodes behind US pace on agents of SHIELD....does that matter to the storyline or anything? Should I catch up fully with agents before starting into this?

RobbingBandit

Jarvis as the bumbling sidekick is quite funny, it's good so far will watch episode 2 later.

Am I right in thinking there are only 8 episodes planned?
