AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Will Have Big Impact on AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.
One of the things that I like most about Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is how it ties into the Marvel cinematic universe. I enjoy seeing the ramifications of all the craziness of the films spill over into the series. I wish that they would go a little bigger with the scale, though, when it comes to the movie crossovers. Maybe they will eventually down the line!
In a recent interview with EW, Executive producer Jed Whedon teased that the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron will tie in with a larger storyline that is going to be in the TV series. It's not a big surprise, but it's still good to know that it's happening.
“You should expect something. The Avengers is the big tent that all the franchises play under. Obviously, we’re included in that.”
I'm interested to see how it will all come together leading up to the Age of Ultron and after the insanity plays out. Executive Producer Maurissa Tancharoen added,
“I don’t think any movie has the potential to impact us in the way that Captain America 2 did, but there will be connections.”
That kind of took the fizzle out of everything. I was really hoping for something mind-blowingly big, but it looks like we're going to have to wait on that. Maybe they're just playing it cool though. Regardless, all this Marvel movie and series crossover talk makes me wonder when we might see the first intergalactic character introduced into Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
