Could Agent May Be Leaving S.H.I.E.L.D.?

After a much needed break from S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Melinda May is back, but will she stay?

This season we find our favorite ass kicking agent struggling to decide whether the agency she has devoted her life to is still worth the sacrifice. Played by actress Ming-Na Wen, Agent May has always been the stoic member of the team with a hard exterior and cold personality the mission was always her focus.  This time around May is questioning that focus and reevaluating her priorities. Speaking with TVGuide.com Wen had this to say.

"In any situation when someone is so devoted to their work as May was, but then realizing over the last two years that S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't really what she dedicated her life to," Wen says. "That there was definitely a lot of corruption to S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as uncertainty now with the Inhumans being brought in by Coulson. It's going to be figuring out her final decision in Season 3 and I think Andrew will probably play a part in it."

To make matters worse Andrew, May’s ex-husband played by actor Blair Underwood who had been unhappy with S.H.I.E.L.D. now seems to have gotten over his grudge, and will be taking an active role in the organization. “What's interesting is now May is disgruntled by S.H.I.E.L.D., but last season when May came to Andrew with the idea of coming back to S.H.I.E.L.D., he was disgruntled and had left the agency," Underwood says. "But now he's back working with them and the Inhumans."




One guy who has no qualms about his organization is Grant Ward (Brett Dalton). Assuming the leadership position of Agents of Shields Hydra faction, Ward will be a dangerous enemy for Coulson and his team this season.

"Hydra's different this time," Elizabeth Henstridge (Simmons) said "It's been completely dismantled, and Ward's kind of taking it on. He's got huge scores to settle and nothing to lose, so he's a very dangerous character."

From the sounds of it Ward will actually become the savior of this fractured organization.

"I think that Hydra doesn't have a sense of leadership at this point. We've had the Hydra with Strucker, we've had the Hydra with Whitehall - all of these other versions of Hydra - and, you know, it's a ship in need of captaining," Dalton continued "Ward has elected himself, and he's a hero in that story."


With an all-new Hydra and the Inhumans storyline Agents of Shield appears to be finding it’s stride. Let me know what you think. Leave your comments below.

Yeah, Shield's cast is getting a little too big at this point. May's time should be up as Daisy starts to model herself after May. And it's about damn Ward started making his moves. TaskMaster time??

We all know who the true MCU Taskmaster is.

I know he wont be the TaskMaster but i'm hoping he does suit up in some kind of fashion. Shield needs better Villains

@KurtWagner1225 Lol our convos are article hopping at this point. I think they're all good on their own. But this show needs a true enemy who can carry an entire season. Whitehall's death was too early and very anti climactic, whereas Jiaying and Garett didn't turn until the last few episodes. Am I making any sense?

If may does leave, wonder if mockingbird will take over her conflicted pilot/soldier role, read another article where Morse is still crippled both physically and mentally after injuries inflicted on her in ward's torture chamber

Think so that Agent May will be leaving AoS as whole. After what happened to Ward, he will surely blame May for Kara's death. And maybe will kill May in the process.

@Deonox: You know, that's what I love in AoS, you will never know who is the real enemy. Its more like a spy show than a comic book show and perfectly depicts the uncertainty of their line and to the extent the uncertainty of humanity itself. Simmons and May actually just perfectly depict what I said.

In terms of villains, never expected Garrett to be the main Villain, I loved him. And Jiaying's unexpected heel turn was the most shocking thing in AoS. It actually showed how manipulative she was after all those years of immortality.

My favourite CBM show. Season 2 was [frick]ing Bonkers.

Ward being the big bad this season is going to be awesome. He's easily in the top 3 villains in the entire MCU. Him, Loki, and Kingpin. The order just depends on my mood.

Can't wait to see how the Secret Warriors storyline plays out, and just what Mack's role will be within that arc.

And lest we forget, what the [frick] happened to Simmons?

Haters can hate, but AGENTS of SHIELD out did Gotham and Arrow. The cheesy ending to Arrow was barfable.

DareDevil, AOS, Agent Carter and Flash were the top comic book tv shows.

Ward's not going to become any character we know from the comics; just accept it. He's more fun as himself.

That said... He could still conceivably become Moon Knight. But he won't.

I cant wait for this show to return. Ward is going to be awesome as a Hydra Head, Simmons is going to change, probably to be Inhuman after that black goo sucked her up. on top of that Secret Warriors. Score!!
