Was Adrianne Palicki Initially Eyeing A Different MARVEL Superheroine?

While speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Adrianne Palicki stated that accepting the role of Mockingbird on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was "scary" because it meant she would "never be able to play another Marvel character."

EW spoke to newly minted Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. actress Adrianne Palicki on her turn as the newest addtion to the show, Bobbi Morse, better known to fans of Marvel Comics as Mockingbird. It seems Palicki had a bit of hesitancy about accepting the role of Mockingbird because that meant she understood she wouldn't be able to play any other Marvel characters, at least not for Marvel Studios. Explained Palicki on ultimately accepting the role---

"They approached me and were interested in me for the role. Of course, I’m a huge comic book fan and have been forever. My brother’s a comic book writer. Playing an action hero is always exciting, but it was scary, because I was like, “I will never be able to play another Marvel character if I go forward in this role.” There was a lot of questions and a lot of weighing the options. The showrunners were very convincing. I’m glad that we all came together and I got to be this character."

Of course, the question of whether Mockingbird could appear in a Marvel studios movie was asked and Palicki was quick to state that was definitely a possibility.

"Absolutely. That’s the nice thing. It’s the first Marvel show that’s been on television and the crossovers have happened multiple times. I hope there is that potential for the character. Anything is possible in that world, which is wonderful."
 
Over at EW, Palicki also discusses the similarities between her character and Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow, Mockingbird's relationship with Lance Hunter (Nick Blood) and Tripp (B.J. Britt), as well as whether Mockingbird will be sticking around Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. for the duration of the season.

I wouldn't be surprised or against it if she did.

I liked her, but the ex-wife thing was really bland TV writing.

It's like the shows writers actually have a list of cliche things to do in the show.

I think the announcement of AOU will give it a small viewer boost, then people will hopefully realize the show is really good and stay

@TheDirtyMexican I'm actually a bit scared that they're turning Lance Hunter into AOS Clint.



She was awesome though.

This season feels as if the team as a whole has much more mature members now. Last season felt like the high school team of SHIELD with Ward, Skye, Fitz, and Simmons. This season feels like the members are more mature and have had prior field experience with Morse, Lance Hunter, Trip, and not Luke Cage (the mechanic, can't remember his name). Overall this show has gotten much better since last season. Should have started the show this season with the events of Winter Soldier being the intro into the series.

I also found the change from Cold Ruthless Hydra Security Chief to.. "Just Bobbie" Perky S.HE.I.L.D. agent to be lazy writing too.
