AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Star Chloe Bennet Talks Possible MCU Return And Takes A Shot At SECRET INVASION

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star Chloe Bennet has once again commented on the possibility of appearing in the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe, and takes a shot at Marvel Television's Secret Invasion series...

Love or hate Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., there's no denying that the show included heaps of memorable moments and characters worthy of an appearance in the wider MCU. 

Chloe Bennet's Quake falls into the latter category, and while her journey from being Skye to Daisy Johnson was undeniably convoluted, she's someone fans are eager to see on screen again. 

Rumours about a potential return have swirled for years, with Bennet both teasing and denying her involvement with the MCU on multiple occasions. Unfortunately, despite claims that Marvel Studios is bringing her back, the latest update from the actor isn't an overly positive one. 

Talking at Dragon Con (via Cosmic Marvel), Bennet told fans, "I'm not playing a bit, this isn't a joke, I don't know anything. They haven't asked me." 

She added, "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. isn’t considered canon, [but] I agree that I should've been in Secret Invasion. It probably would’ve been better." Shots fired! The series initially received good reviews (based on the first two episodes offered to critics), but when they and fans got to see the remainder of the season, the tide turned. It now sits at a "Rotten" 53%.

The debate about Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s "canon" status continues. Several MCU projects have contradicted the events of the series, and while early seasons were closely tied to the movies, that changed as time went on. 

The comic book Quake has ties to teams like the Secret Warriors and even The Avengers, so who knows how she'll be utilised by Marvel Studios if and when this supposed return happens. 

As noted, Bennet was introduced in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a newly created character called Skye. However, as the series progressed, we learned that she was, in fact, Daisy Johnson. As an Inhuman, "Skye" eventually gained superpowers and, like her comic book counterpart, became the superhero known as Quake.

Bennet shone as that version of the character, and while changes would need to be made to Daisy (we're guessing she'd be a mutant rather than an Inhuman), many franchises could benefit from Quake's involvement.  

"We're really just not included in the new Marvel - whatever universe they're in now," Bennet said last November. "Which is, I'll say it here, a shame for Marvel. I think they're undermining a fanbase and all these characters that I think have much bigger of an impact than people maybe realize. And I would love to do something again."

"I don't think I'm done playing Daisy. That's not saying I know anything. I've never been approached to do anything. It just doesn't... I just didn't feel like I'm done," she continued. "I was 20 to 27 doing the show. I was a child! I'd be interested in playing Daisy as a real adult."

IIRC, its only the last two seasons that contradict what's been in the MCU. Otherwise, Seasons 1-5 could mostly fit.

(Damnit, I want a Ghost Rider series co-starring Gabriel Luna and Nicholas Cage.)

@asherman93 - yeah

I think you could even say with all the time travel
Shenanigans of S5 that it created a branch timeline of sorts

I still hope we get Luna as Robbie in SW alongside Cage’s Johnny!!.

@asherman93 - The last two seasons and they could easily just handwave it away as then ending up on a different timeline.

I hope we do get to see her post SW but I’m beginning to doubt it more & more…

Also honestly I don’t think we need to since I liked the ending we got with her & Sousa with her half sister in tow aswell onto other cosmic adventures so I’m fine with not seeing that version again.

Also even as someone who enjoyed things about Secret Invasion , I don’t feel she needed to be in that since she was already in a better version of that arc in AOS S4!!.

I don't get the obsession with her returning to the MCU, she wasn't even the best actor or character on that show. Also, Feige hates Inhumans.

Holding out hope for this is like holding your breath waiting for Grant Gustin to be cast as the new Flash or Amell to be Green Arrow.

It ain’t happening, get over it

The use of her powers in that show was comical. Supposed to be really powerful but she just used to push people back. Then she'd continue to fight them with karate. She could literally snap their spine with the wave of her hand but a push and some hand to hand was always the decision. LOL
