"There are gods and aliens," Jed Whedon said.
"So we have a lot to play with. There's a spy aspect of the show and SHIELD is some of the most sci-fi in the Marvel universe because it's about gadgets. So we have a lot of different things to play with. It will be a mixture of both. We will be focusing on having every story having a beginning, middle and end." Jed went on to say
"some of it will be mythology and some of it will standalone. And our character runs will continue through all of that." Maurissa Tancharoen added that
"Marvel is a very vast and diverse universe." Well she is very correct about that! What villains do you want to see appear on "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Sound off below!
"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." will premiere on ABC tonight, Tuesday, September 24, at 8 p.m.
