Can "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. mystery hero (played by J. August Richards) fly? [via SFX Magazine]

Richards: "This is a role I’ve been preparing for since I was nine years old. It’s literally a dream come true. Because as a boy my favorite show was Superman and my favorite movie was Star Wars – along with other science fiction shows and movies. And I always wanted to fly. I’m surprised I’m not one of those kids that jumped off the roof and hurt himself. But you know, I got to fly. As an actor and as a person this is monumental for me."


Here are some season 4 teases from "The Walking Dead" executive producers Gale Anne Hurd and Scott Gimple. The duo addresses whether the large departure from the source material in the season finale is a indication that season 4 will also make radical changes. [via SFX Magazine]

Hurd: "What I would say is we look for organic storytelling. So there was a decision this season to introduce Michonne in a really dramatic fashion, and to do that we had to split Laurie Holden’s character off from the group. When that happened we had Michonne and Andrea out in the woods and the story of the Governor. And there was a decision. Michonne left and Andrea stayed. And those consequences pay off over the course of the season."

Gimple: "I think you’re going to be incredibly surprised where we’ll find everybody this coming season. I think we’re gonna do things in a little bit of a different way. And the characters are going to go in different directions. You’re going to be surprised at where they start, and you’re going to be surprised at where they finish."



Actress Maisie Williams who portrays Arya Stark on HBO's "Game of Thrones" discusses what's in store for Arya next season.

If
Anthony Mackie wasn't in wInter solider, J. August Richards would be a great falcon.

It will be interesting when that first trailer for the Crow hits.

I'm really thinking that Richards might actually be Wendell Vaughn. I can see Project: Pegasus working into the SHIELD show pretty well.

I love Brandon to death but the Crow movie he was in didn't do the book any justice. The book if anyone has read it, is powerful and deep and profound. its a work of art unlike anything. the poetry and violence is just jawdropping. hopefully, in the remake they make it more in line to the emotion that the book was trying to convey instead of some action movie. we'll see.

Hmmm, Wendell Vaughn? Quasar? I like the idea but I doubt they'll introduce the Kree through this show.

How old is Maisie Williams? The remaining Stark kids are becoming unbelievably too old for their parts. The show will need to jump ahead a few years to account for all the kids getting older.

He'd better stop saying he likes Superman while filming with MARVEL. Damn near every user here will be hiding in his bushes with bats.

No, Gladiator of the Shi'ar is the Supes of Marvel. He has all the same powers.

After viewing trailers for 'Agents of SHIELD', was beginning to wonder if the show has a kind of "HEROES" feel to it...anyone else think so?

I am convinced that J August Richard's character has got to be Captain Marvel/Mar-vell becuase...

a) Richards praised Marvel for being color blind (so he is not playing a traditionally black character. Mar-vell in the comics is depicted in the 616 as looking like a blond-blue eyed male
b) he has a device on is his arm that could very well be a 'universal beam' which is apart of Mar-vell's power set
c) his character can fly...so can Mar-vell
d) It makes perfect sense that Mar-vell would have come to Earth as a result of the Avengers defeating Loki and the Chitari army, and making an intergalactic name for themselves and therefore making Earth a target for the Kree and Skrull.
e) If Joss set this up right, Richards could periodically show up on the show in a 'Q' like capacity to test the people of earth's capabilities, much like Q did with Picard in star Trek TNG.
