Agent Carter

Quote:
Today Mirror UK announced that Marvel has landed Hayley Atwell to reprise the role of Agent Carter in ABCs Agent Carter! Agent Carter is a period TV series that will follow the events of the Marvel: One Shot Agent Carter and the formation of S.H.I.E.L.D:
“This is a massive deal for both Hayley and Marvel comic fans. It’s Marvel’s major project of 2014, and it will be a big budget production. Hayley is absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity and is incredibly grateful to Marvel fans who have basically been campaigning for a spin-off show for the past six months. It means moving to LA for six months but her friends and family are all behind her, and this is a huge opportunity."
Hayley Atwell adds about coming back as Peggy Carter...
"The one-shot was so successful, the fanbase were like, ‘We want more of Peggy! I think Marvel probably take that very seriously, and it’s certainly something I would be a part of doing. I’d be interested to show different sides of Peggy. Although she’s kick-ass, and she can be aggressive and just as competent as the men, it’d be nice to show that she’s a feminist in a way. It’s not just about her being aggressive and as aggressive as the men in those action sequences, but being able to be a little bit more rounded as a person.”
This will be the second Marvel show on ABC. Again its a prequel to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. It is expected be out Fall 2014

Looks like Marvel is testing the waters with a tv show before a big budget production with a female lead.

This is going to be quite expensive being a period drama. But I always thought it would be so much more interesting than AoS. Seeing Stark and his creations alongside Carter will be interesting.

Oh I know. I'm just saying this has potential to be more expensive to produce than AoS. They are certainly putting their money up.

Hopefully they will announce some animated movies too. Compared to DC their animated features are mostly miss than hit so far.

They have. There is something called Big 6 which is a Marvel/Disney co-op.
