AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Has Cast A Young Baron Von Strucker For An Upcoming Episode
It looks like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will once again delve into HYDRA's past because an actor has been found to take on the role of a young Baron Von Strucker in the Marvel series. Read on for details!
It's been confirmed today that Joey Defore has been cast as a young Baron Von Strucker in the March 30th episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. titled "Rise and Shine." As you'll no doubt recall, Thomas Kretschmann played the character in Avengers: Age of Ultron and he was portrayed as the new leader of HYDRA after the villainous organisation was disbanded in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
The character's son appeared in the series a couple of years ago but Strucker himself has never actually shown up (mostly because he was killed by Ultron after just a few paltry minutes of screentime).
This episode of the ABC series is going to feature flashbacks exploring General Hale's past and her ties to HYDRA. We're also going to see a younger version of S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Jasper Sitwell, a character revealed to be loyal to the villainous organisation in The Winter Soldier.
