Fan-favorite Hayley Atwell, who portrayed Peggy Carter in the Captain America films and will return to the role in Joss Whedon's upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron, will also thankfully be gracing our TV screens with her presence next January in her own series: Agent Carter. The first season will consist of 8 episodes and will air on ABC during Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s winter hiatus. The series will focus on Peggy's life post-Cap and how she eventually helped start the organization formerly known as S.H.I.E.L.D.
Amongst other things, she reveals that the series will start shooting near the end of September giving her a few weeks to get into tip-top shape. She also spoke in length about her favorite part about playing Peggy:
"My favorite part is something the audiences haven't seen yet. It's the development of her character throughout the series which will be someone who is kind of more three-dimensional, something that women can relate to, as not just the competent, strong, intelligent woman in this workforce, but the psychological, emotional cost. What it takes for a woman to have to sacrifcie personal relationships in order to find her place in the world and to fulfill her kind of destiny."
Check out her full interview with TVLine's Michael Ausiello below:
It’s 1946, and peace has dealt Peggy Carter a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad. Working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), Peggy must balance doing administrative work and going on secret missions for Howard Stark.
