Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.only has five more episodes remaining inSeason 2, as the show returs Tuesday, April 21 at 9 PM ET with"The Freney of My Enemy".Marvel’sAvengers: Age of Ultronis hitting theaters on May 1, just a few weeks beforeSeason 2comes to a close, and many fans are wondering if these TV and movie worlds will cross over yet again. While appearing on ABC’sJimmy Kimmel Live!, actressCobie Smulders, who plays Maria Hill in the MCU, reveals that she will be popping up in an upcoming episode ofMarvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Here’s what she had to say below.
“There is one coming up. I’m not a cast member, but I pop in every now and again, to kind of link the two worlds, the two worlds being the movies and the TV show, together.”
She wouldn’t specify which episode she will appear in, and it isn’t known how large her role is, or why Maria Hill’s presence is needed in this episode. Last season, the events ofCaptain America: The Winter Soldierdrastically altered the course of the show, as it was revealed that Hydra had been infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D. and other organizations for decades. It isn’t known how, or if, the events portrayed inAvengers: Age of Ultronwill affectSeason 2ofMarvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but we’ll just have to wait and see in a few weeks.
It’s worth noting that Coulson (Clark Gregg) has been on a “secret mission” of sorts lately, which could be the reason for Maria Hill’s arrival. It’s possible Maria Hill could appear in"The Dirty Half Dozen"or"Scars", the episodes directly before and after the release ofAvengers: Age of Ultron, but we don’t know that for sure.“The Dirty Half Dozen"centers on both Coulson and Gonzales (Edward James Olmos) putting their differences aside to face a new Hydra threat, which could have ties toThomas Kretschmann’sAvengers: Age of Ultroncharacter Baron Von Strucker. While we wait for more details, take a look atCobie Smulders' appearance onJimmy Kimmel Live!below.
