Ian Hart Joins AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D In A Recurring Role
Which role? Not too surprisingly Marvel and ABC are keeping the Harry Potter actor's character under wraps for now, but we do know he'll be playing some type of scientist. Read on for what we do have courtesy of Entertainment Weekly..
EW report that Ian Hart will be joining Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D in a recurring role. The site don't reveal the name of his character or if he'll be a part of Marvel canon, but do say that he will be a scientist -- while also divulging a little more info on the show's apparent "unwritten rule": "All super-powers introduced on the show must be explained by science — not magic or supernatural forces." That narrows down any cameos from certain Marvel characters fans might have been expecting to see! Hart will be best know to Harry Potter fans as Professor Quirrel, but he is a veteran of British and Irish film and television, and has most recently appeared on US screen in the likes of A&E’s Bates Motel, HBO’s Luck, and FX’s Dirt.
