"It's not over": Clark Gregg looks to Marvel Studios' multiverse for his and the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s MCU return

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has a weird on-again, off-again relationship with canon.
When the show premiered in 2013, it was promoted as a piece of MCU canon, including statements by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige. However, the MCU movies ignored and contradicted the events of the show, and The Marvel Cinematic Universe: An Official Timeline book exiled it from continuity entirely. This opens up the possibility for AOS actress Chloe Bennet to return to Marvel in a new role, but she’s not interested in playing a different character.
“Ew, I wouldn’t want to cheat on Daisy and come back as anything else. That would be terrible. Yeah, I would love to come back,” Bennet says during a panel at Space Con 2025.
Her co-star Clark Gregg echoed her sentiments.
“I would only want to come back as Coulson,” Gregg says.
Marvel’s Netflix characters had previously been banished from continuity, but they’re currently enjoying a renaissance thanks to Daredevil: Born Again. Bennet and Gregg are hopeful that their journey isn’t over either.
“It was a hell of a great ride,” Gregg says. “I’d like to announce to you today that it’s not over, but I don’t know anything about that. Who knows these things? There’s a lot of multiverses.”
