Will Supernatural Actor Mark Sheppard Appear In The Avengers?

Based heavily on his sly response, Supernatural actor Mark Sheppard was recently asked (again) whether he'd be re-teaming with Joss Whedon, and appearing in The Avengers.

At last year's San Diego Comic-Con, Clique Clack caught up with Supernatural actor Mark Sheppard, where they asked whether he'd be re-teaming with his Firefly & Dollhouse director, Joss Whedon, being that hes helming the assembly of The Avengers. And Sheppard responded by only revealing his interest to do so. However, at this year's SDCC, when asked again, his sly response hinted at the possibility prospering. While it could be looked too much into, watch the very end of the video interview below.



If true, the role could evidently be minor, though with the casting of actress Amanda Righetti as a "SHIELD Agent," and the secondary villains anonymous, who knows. Sheppard has appeared on several TV shows, including Chuck & Battlestar Galactica.


Marvel's The Avengers picks up when an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security. And Nick Fury, director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster. With director Joss Whedon at it's helm, and an ensemble cast including Chris Evans (Steve Rogers), Robert Downey Jr. (Tony Stark), Chris Hemsworth (Thor Odinson), Jeremy Renner (Clint Barton), Mark Ruffalo (Bruce Banner), Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanoff), Clark Gregg (Agt. Phil Coulson), Cobie Smulders (Maria Hill), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury), with Tom Hiddleston (Loki Laufeyson), and Stellan Skarsgard (Professor Erik Selvig), the film releases worldwide May 4, 2012!

He plays Badger, the Irish mobster who makes two appearances (the pilot episode and Shindig) as a reoccuring character who commissions the Cap'n in Firely.

Who knows?

Badger wasn't Irish. That was a Cockney accent if ever I heard one.

I'll always remember him as the firestarter guy in a goofy early X-Files episode.

The guy is everywhere. lol He was in the first two episodes of the latest Doctor Who season as well. He gets around.

Now let me see which member of the Masters of Evil he could play the best. Somebody quick stick a sock over his head! See if he can play Baron Zemo. Or Malekith the Accursed . . .

If he does play someone I'm sure it'll be yet ANOTHER SHIELD agent! A la Coulson! And then they might expand his role in the short films/TV shows...

Could be cool, he was good as CROWLEY in SUPERNATURAL!

But yeah...smelling a SHIELD AGENT, but that's completely okay!

i remember him from his run on "Soldier Of Fortune, Inc."/"Special Ops Force" where he played a demolitions expert. He'd be a perfect fit for S.H.I.E.L.D. Maybe as a certain eccentric scientist with a penchant for adventuring...?
