Television news site TVLine is reporting that either Tony Stark or Captain America may appear in the first episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season Four. According to the popular news site, the cameo was filmed earlier this month in ‘Star Wars-veil level of secrecy’.
This wouldn’t be the first time a high-profile character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe has appeared in the TV Series. Samuel L Jackson and Cobie Smulders both appeared in the show’s first season as Nick Fury and Maria Hill respectively.
As for who is most likely to appear, my money’s on Tony Stark. Robert Downey Jnr filmed a scene earlier this month and many assumed it was for this November’s Doctor Strange. So what if it was actually for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
I’d like to see Iron Man fight J. August Richard’s Deathlok, for instance.
When asked during a Reddit AMA whether he would appear in the show, Robert Downey Jnr replied ‘Nothing is impossible’ so he clearly isn’t against a cameo appearance.
On the other hand, a Captain America appearance would make sense given that Coulson is possibly the Cap’s biggest fan. A scene where Coulson reveals to Steve Rodgers that he is still alive could be a magical moment for the show akin to the eleventh Doctor’s conversation with Tom Baker’s Curator in the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special The Day of the Doctor.
Chris Evans hasn’t spoken out on whether he would be willing to appear, although during the rap battle between Agent Carter and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. he was on Agent Carter’s side so it’s clear where his loyalties lie!
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to the U.S. on Tuesday 20th September on ABC. E4 have yet to confirm a UK return date.
