Rumour has it that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will wrap up with its fifth season and that leaves the door open to Clark Gregg making his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We already know that's happening in Captain Marvel (presumably during 90s set flashbacks as opposed to the present day) but what about Infinity War or Avengers 4? Could Agent Coulson finally be reunited with The Avengers?
Asked at the Avengers: Infinity War press conference whether or not we should expect to see the fan-favourite character's return, Anthony Russo replied: "I'd like to talk more about bass fishing."
That was a reference to something Chris Pratt said earlier on when he dodged a question about Star-Lord's response to meeting Earth's Mightiest Heroes by talking about going bass fishing instead.
He followed that up by adding, "We thought about everybody in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and how they could play a role in the story." That's a frustratingly vague response but if Coulson is going to show up, it would be best for it to be a surprise as there are countless ways he could make an appearance in this ensemble. Do you think we'll see him meet back up with Iron Man and company?
