Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Spinoff Gets Pilot Order

Posted on August 21, 2015

Deadline reports that the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. spinoff is definitely happening. The new show will be called Marvel's Most Wanted. It will star Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. cast members Adrianne Palicki as Barbara "Bobbi" Morse/ Mockingbird and Nick Blood who plays Bobbi's ex-husband and on and off boyfriend Lance Hunter.

The duo has amazing chemistry together and they have been a great addition to Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.. This project was announced earlier this year, but then the word was that it was on hold. Yet now ABC has greenlit a pilot for the show. Adrianne has been down this path before. She was cast as Wonder Woman and a pilot was shot for NBC by David Kelly. The script and the pilot leaked and the reaction was vicious.

One complaint was that the script read like an Ally McBeal episode and that Wonder Woman cried too much. Other complaints were made about the pop music used during chase scenes. We never saw the pilot. Surely it couldn't have been that bad? Apparently the NBC brass thought it was a disaster and buried it. Adrianne and Nick are great together and we can't wait to see this pilot.
