Kevin Feige Says Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Will Fill In The Blanks For AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON

With Avengers: Age of Ultron already out in theaters, many of you may still have questions that you want to be answered. Well, in a new interview, Marvel CEO Kevin Feige revealed that Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. will indeed answer some of those questions! Check it out!

If you did not yet see Avengers: Age of Ultron and all its awesomeness, do not continue to read the rest of this article because it contains spoilers for the film.


In Avengers: Age of Ultron, The Avengers had to evacuate everyone of off a flying city! When this seemed impossible, Nick Fury returned with a Helicarrier! This allowed the Avengers to get everyone to safety, and destroy the island, before it destroyed the world. So, what does this new Helicarrier mean? Did Nick Fury re-assemble the “loyal” side of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Is he now the Director once more? Well, in an interview with Slash Film, Marvel CEO Kevin Feige revealed that these questions will be answered on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “I think it’s fair to say you could fill in some of those blanks in the coming weeks on Tuesday at 9.”

How will the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron tie-in to Agents of Shield? Also, how will Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. tie-in to Captain America: Civil War? Well, according to Clark Gregg in a separate interview with ComicBook, that TV series will have an important role in that story-arc just as it did in the comics. “If you’ve ever read any of the Civil War comics, you’ll know that S.H.I.E.L.D. is very much part of a group that’s trying to register the superheroes, and that really divides and forces some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents – especially those with connections to people who have powers that can feel personal – to really decide which side of that conflict they’re on. Iron Man and Cap end up on, in the comics anyway, opposite sides of it.”

Even though it happened that way in the comics, Clark Gregg says it might not be the same way because in the MCU, things constantly change. “There’s always changes in the way they do that in the cinematic universe. I think, with the S.H.I.E.L.D. 2.0, you’re seeing some of the first ripples of those different points of view on what S.H.I.E.L.D. should be when it’s rebuilt. I’m very, very curious to know which side Coulson will end up on in that struggle.”

As you saw, the Shield agent from the Captain America: Winter Soldier was onboard the Helicarrier, as well as Maria Hill. Will Shield be united once more during the events of Captain America: Civil War? As of now, all we can do is what we do best...Speculate! In the comment section below, tell how you think Shield will fare during Civil War and Infinity War! Sound off below with your thoughts!

OK, I have a question, maybe someone could answer it.

In Age of Ultron, while in the cabin, Fury mentions that someone is preventing Ultron from getting nuke codes. Do they EVER reveal who that is? If they don't, I figure it's probably Coulson and etc. I just can't remember them saying who it was.

@AxE @Verzwei Thanks guys.

There was so much going on, and I missed some stuff....partly cause I had to watch it in 3D so I was trying to keep up with the story while trying to see everything properly. I really need to watch the movie again. lol

@DrunkenNukem can't be so sure. Coulson was a lot more idealistic back then. Being killed, brought back to life, and then betrayed about 7 times can change a man.

I'd love to watch, read and learn every bit of the MCU lore, but this show is unbearable for me. In my OPINION, it is not canon.

@gentlemanlyBatman

Lol people keep misinterpreting Whedon's words. He never said the show wasn't canon to the MCU. All he said was, as far as he and the movie story is concerned, Coulson is "dead". Meaning he'll probably never be revealed as alive to the Avengers. A lot of the other things he said regarding the show was him joking around, but that was the gist of it.

@MrPagBrewster Absolutely. Cap is now my favourite character in the MCU, because of the reasons you just stated, and much more. Evans is brilliant.

Yea the really filled in a lot gaps.*eyeroll gif*

And what they "filled" everyone could already assume so it wasn't that serious.

@ManCalledSting

I think Marvel TV is just covering for Whedon's lazy writing.

There was nothing left to be explained in Winter Soldier. Instead, the show supplemented the events.

I find it even funnier how people were taking his "Coulson's fever dream" comment seriously.

does Coulson side with his childhood hero Capt or his friend Tony. what about Bobbi ? She seems to have a relationship of sorts with Barton. He's an Avenger first now, Shield agent second.

@YeezuzWept Seriously. As long as I've known Whedon as a writer, it's that 3/4 of what he says is dry sarcasm. But then half the internet was all 'OMFG Agents of SHIELD isn't can0n wTf!?"

It's very simple. Coulson is "dead" to the Avengers and the movies. Coulson is actually alive on TV. Agents of SHIELD is canon to the MCU.

LOL at all these gifs.

Going back to the article, I'm glad Feige cleared things up. AOS is canon and is vital.

PS: Quake and Daredevil in Civil War please.

There are things in the movie that don't "have to" be explained. Like the Hellicarrier coming out of nowhere. The audience can fill in the blanks and figure that Nick Fury must have kept a Hellicarrier stashed away somewhere that survived the Winter Soldier events.

But people who watch the show get a more detailed understanding of how things happened, which is an extra reward for watching the show.

I think that's pretty awesome.
It's all connected.
