A Whedonverse vet has stealthily invaded Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D.ABC declined to comment, but sources confirm to TVLine that Joss Whedon — who is shepherding ABC’s Avengers-themed drama — has cast his former Angel charge J. August Richards in a super top-secret role.

MY BABY
ReplyDeleteGunn!
ReplyDeleteOh yes! Hope we get pick up news soon.
ReplyDeleteGood. There are rumors he's also appearing in the next Arrow episode.
ReplyDeleteOh I knew it that Whedon would not resist the temptation of adding whedonverse actors. banking on some more of them(*cough*amyacker*cough*) :P
ReplyDeleteOk, now I'm a little conflicted. If Whedon is doing what he usually does and recruited people he apparently like to work with, I'd love to see Amy Acker be a regular in a show again... but being a regular on an ABC show would mean she wouldn't be able to play Root on Person of Interest.
ReplyDeleteSigh... but anyway Richards is pretty good. Love to see what he can bring to the show.
Woohooo. Nice to see Buffyverse vets getting some good work!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to this show!
ReplyDeleteNo.NO.NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Then what about POI???????
ReplyDeleteThere aren't rumors. He IS appearing in the next episode of Arrow. lol You can see him in the extended promo for Home Invasion.
ReplyDeleteI can handle having Amy Acker on two shows :P
ReplyDeleteAnd since she is not becoming a lead in POI any time soon there should be no problems ;]
YAY!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah but he is not listed in the press release
ReplyDeleteOh,on two shows no problem! I misunderstood what you meant.And i am so glad she isn't a lead on POI...better for us!
ReplyDeleteActually networks tend to not like their stars to guest star on rival networks. If Amy Acker stars on an ABC show I seriously doubt she'll be allowed to guest star on CBS.
ReplyDeleteSo...? He's IN the promo.
ReplyDeleteNice to see Gunn once again! It'd be great to see Alexis Denishof in some capacity. I haven't seen him in anything since the Hplus web series
ReplyDeleteMy least favorite Angel alum. Oh well, he's still great though! :)
ReplyDeleteThe rumor is that the person is particularly suited to the role. I think his spot in the past isn't at the core of it.

ReplyDeleteMy Guess at his super top-secret role.
Cant wait to see Gunn back in action.
YAY Gunn!!! Seeing Weddonite vets is never a bad thing.
ReplyDelete(I still think he should cast Enver and Diechen in everything though. I just get so pumped every time Enver shows up during all my Avengers rewatching.)
