"someone"? That someone is Joss Whedon who made the Avengers. He also made Dollhouse, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and he's currently working on Avengers 2. So yeah, he's not just someone who's trying to make a buck from a Marvel series (not sure what you mean by that since this is an original show and not based off of any comic book or whatever), lol :p

According to TV Line, David Conrad (Ghost Whisperer, CSI: Miami) has landed a recurring role in ABC's highly anticipated television series Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., which premieres Tuesday, September 24th at 8 PM EST. As expected, details on his role are being kept under lock and key, and we don't know which episode will be his debut on the show. But the site adds, "the show has been casting the role of a brilliant and quirky scientist that matches Conrad?s description (i.e., male in his 40s)."

A character named Michael Peterson (in the comics a friend of Slapstick) will be a focus in the pilot after he acquires powers via the Extremis virus. He will be played by J. August Richards.

EW report that Ian Hart will be joining Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D in a recurring role. The site don't reveal which character he'll play, but do say that he will be a scientist -- while also divulging a little more info on the show's apparent "unwritten rule": "All super-powers introduced on the show must be explained by science ? not magic or supernatural forces." That narrows down any cameos from certain Marvel characters fans might have been expecting to see! Hart will be best know to Harry Potter fans as Professor Quirrel, but he is a veteran of British and Irish film and television, and has most recently appeared on US screen in the likes of A&E?s Bates Motel, HBO?s Luck, and FX?s Dirt.

^I'm betting life model decoy. The blood made it pretty clear that it was a living thing :p I also don't think the latter could keep someone from dying after such a devastating shot.

Channel 4 has acquired the UK premiere broadcast rights to ??Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?, the hotly anticipated new series from Marvel Television and ABC Studios. The series will premiere on Channel 4 in autumn, soon after its launch on the ABC network in the US.

??Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?, is Marvel?s first live-action television series about the worldwide law enforcement agency S.H.I.E.L.D. Behind the production is US producer, director and co-writer Joss Whedon, creator of the series ?Buffy, the Vampire Slayer?, ?Angel?, ?Dollhouse? and director of the movie ?Marvel?s Avengers Assemble?.

Clark Gregg (?Marvel?s Iron Man? and ?500 Days of Summer?) returns in his role of Agent Phil Coulson from feature film ?Marvel?s Avengers Assemble.? Coulson assembles a small, highly select group of Agents to investigate the new, the strange and the unknown from across the globe protecting the ordinary from the extraordinary.

Coulson's team consists of Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton ? ?Blue Bloods?, ?Army Wives?), highly trained in combat and espionage; Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen ? ?ER?, ?Eureka?), expert pilot and martial artist; Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker ? ?The Fades?, ?In Fear?), brilliant engineer; and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge ? ?Hollyoaks?, ?Shelter?), genius bio-chemist. Joining them on their journey into mystery is new recruit and computer hacker, Skye (Chloe Bennet ? ?Nashville?, ?Intercept?).

Channel 4 Chief Creative Officer, Jay Hunt says; "Like the Super Hero universe from which it has come, ?Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? is big, bold and absolutely exhilarating. Featuring the production values you?d expect from Marvel and ABC Studios, this is family entertainment at its most exciting.?

Catherine Powell, SVP & GM, Media Distribution, The Walt Disney Company, EMEA : "This stand-out series has universal appeal with the excitement and thrilling action we have come to expect from Marvel, brought to life by a superb cast playing fantastic characters. It's terrific news for viewers that "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is launching on Channel 4."

    • This is how much iPhone 18 Pro could cost after Apple's price hike confirmed

      By Phillip0web · Posted

      They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      By Steven P. · Posted

      24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though
    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event. Particularly, Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 wireless earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever with limited Prime deal offering 33% and 24% discounts, respectively. Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations. Furthermore, when it comes to the connectivity, it is provided through Bluetooth 5.4. Additional features include an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, in-ear detection, a low-latency mode, and a Find My Earbuds function. Moreover, through the Nothing X app for Android and iOS, users can access custom EQ settings, a bass enhancement algorithm, customisable controls, Find My Earbuds, low-latency mode, dual-device connectivity, an ear tip fit test, and firmware updates. The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery.

Battery life is rated at up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off.

      The entire world moved to the vastly superior and now universally supported Dolby Atmos technology a very long time ago, mate.
