Recommended Videos

After reporting last week that Marvel is developing an Agents of SHIELD spinoff for ABC, Entertainment Weekly has also revealed that Marvel is collaborating with writer-producer John Ridley on “a mysterious new TV series.” According to EW,

In addition to writing and executive-producing 12 Years a Slave and the upcoming Ben Hur remake, Ridley is also executive-producer on ABC’s American Crime.

Although the thought of Agent Carter not getting a second season honestly makes me resentful of this SHIELD spinoff, if SHIELD 2.0 does turn out to be Ripley’s mysterious project, I’ll definitely be a little more intrigued. What do you think Marvel’s cooking up for us, gang?
