I guess if AoS basically becomes a straight up Secret Warriors show, this could work.

 

[Jigorath]

Umm why? Just keep them on SHIELD.

 

[fallengorn]

Would rather they stay on SHIELD unless they end up going all in on Secret Warriors.

 

[Asbel]

OT but why hasn't this motherfucker gotten his own show yet?

Edit: Sorry. Will like AoS less without Bobbi and Nick but will give new show a chance.

 

[maxcriden]

The show has been ordered to pilot.

Marvel's Most Wanted has been ordered to pilot!

"Insiders say the series is not a spinoff, per se, but rather an entirely new project solely focused on the two characters to continue their story. Though plot details are scarce at this point, 'Marvel’s Most Wanted' will follow the pair and their adventures together."

(Thanks Madridista for the info!)

 

[Berek]

Uhh...I don't get it. How is that different from a spinoff?

 

[SuperEpicMan]

I am a huge fan of the MCU but I don't like the sound of this. I would hate to see them spread themselves too thin.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Yes.

Uhh...I don't get it. How is that different from a spinoff?

AoS is sorta like a spin-off of the MCU.
So this would be a spin-off of a spin-off.
I guess they just don't want to use that term because it might seem degrading.

 

[MutonCommander]

I don't think I want this. I guess we'll see.

 

[bananafactory]

I wonder if this is set before Agents of SHIELD?

 

[Berek]

Yes.

Yeah. It seems like PR semantics.

Marvel's Most Wanted |OT| Don't call it a spinoff

I was confused. That article is from August 2015.

This is the new info.

“We are making it in the next few months,” Lee said during a TCA panel today. “It’s a really good script.”

The project, originally developed last season and then reworked after the upfronts, comes from S.H.I.E.L.D. executive producers Jeffrey Bell and Paul Zbyszewski.

 

[LumpOfCole]

The only way I see this working is if Civil War causes a long split even on AoS, where these two turn into outlaws that fight for good or something but are basically enemies of SHIELD.

 

[jon bones]

booooo

keep bobbi and hunter on agents, go fwd w Damage Control

 

[Steeped in a Sea of Games]

Do we really need 3 shows with so close a theme (SHIELD, Agent Carter, and this)?

 

[MHWilliams]

Damage Control is still coming. Hell, even John Ridley is still talking about his Marvel project as of December 30, 2015.

 

[anaron]

yesssss

though just call it mockingbird, god.

 

[Claude Augario]

Have they ever called Bobbi Mockingbird on AOS?

 

[udiie]

those two actors are awesome and have great on screen chemistry

Spoiler

and i havent even seen season 3 yet...

 

[Pachimari]

Have they ever called Bobbi Mockingbird on AOS?

Once or twice.

 

[Broken Joystick]

not that I recall...could be wrong

edit: probably wrong

 

[VanWinkle]

I think that's the bad part about shared TV and movie universe. Marvel is playing it so safe on the TV side (though at least they're doing some pretty cool stuff on Netflix).

I used to be against the separated universes that DC is doing, but I've really come around to it, since they can use pretty big characters and do anything they want with them.

 

[Slayven]

Love AoS, but Marvel needs a show with a bit more energy and tighter cast

 

[Penguin]

I did my whole I don't get why ABC continues to pour resources into Marvel show thing when this was originally re-announced

So guess go the other direction, where would they stick this?

Someone suggested getting rid of Agent Carter and having this be the winter fill-in, which could work. Also would allow them to still be on SHIELD for the most part.

Or I guess could do AoS, Agent Carter in the winter break and this over summer break.

I think they're getting rid or swapping this out for Agent Carter. Can't tell you why, it's just a hunch I've had. Damage Control would kind of fill the female-led show vibe too.

 

[FartOfWar]

Garbage spin offs of garbage spin offs.

 

[Father_Brain]

Really weird that they have three new Marvel shows in development (this, Damage Control, and the John Ridley project), and yet the only one they're full steam ahead on is the direct spinoff of a show with middling (if acceptable in the current broadcast climate) ratings.

Though Powerless being ordered to pilot probably doesn't help Damage Control's chances.

From his recent interview doesn't sound like Ridley show is in production for next season. Though could do midseason or he just likes being vague.

But I've given up trying to understand their logic with this brand.

First casting (sans the leads)

Delroy Lindo

Lindo will play Dominic Fortune, who first appeared in 1975's Marvel Preview #2 in a story written and drawn by comics legend Howard Chaykin. A rogue and adventurer in the 1930s, Fortune craved wealth and excitement with his globe-trotting odysseys.

Damn you, Penguin.

Thou has foiled my plans once more.
