The piolt was directed and co-written by Joss Whedon with Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen. Clark Gregg returns (all will be explained in the series we have been told) as Agent Phil Coulson. The rest of the cast includes Brett Dalton, Ming-Na Wen, Iain De Caestecker, Chloe Bennet and Elizabeth Henstridge.
The show is describe as “an epic adventure that showcases the hope and wonder of the human spirit. This is a world of Super Heroes, aliens and the unusual – of action, spectacle and world spanning stories. The show will speak to the human condition through the lens of our very human, non-powered S.H.I.E.L.D agents – that together we are greater than we are apart, and that we can make a difference in the world.”
The first promo of the show will be seen during the season finale of ONCE UPON A TIME Sunday, May 12.
