The rise of Marvel television as a force to rival its cinematic output continues, with the news that ABC have ordered the pilot for a third Marvel show. Following Agents of SHIELD and Agent Carter, the network is looking to create a new show centered around Mockingbird, one of SHIELD‘s central characters, reports Variety.
Entitled Marvel’s Most Wanted, the new shows will focus upon Mockingbird–aka Bobbi Morse, played by Adrianne Palicki–and fellow agent Lance Hunter, portrayed by Nick Blood. An Agents of SHIELD spinoff was first reported earlier this year, but ABC’s subsequent decision to keep these characters in the main show and not move them to a second programme seemed to suggest that the project was dead.
According to Variety, Marvel’s Most Wanted will focus on Morse and Hunter’s “continuing adventures”–what this means for their continued presence on SHIELD is unknown at present.
Agents Of SHIELD returns for a third season on September 29, with Agent Carter season two coming to screens in January 2016. Elsewhere in the Marvel TV universe, the first season of Netflix’s Jessica Jones is expected later in 2015, with a second dose of Daredevil action following next year.
