"Quite the physical specimen and 'cool under fire,' he sometimes botches interpersonal relations. He’s a quiet one with a bit of a temper, but he’s the kind of guy that grows on you."
Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D. will centre on the Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division - a.k.a. S.H.I.E.L.D. Dalton joins a cast featuring Iain De Caestecker (The Little Vampire), Elizabeth Henstridge (The Thompsons) and Ming-Na Wen (Street Fighter), while Clark Gregg, who starred in Marvel films such as Iron Man, Thor and The Avengers, will also reprise his role as Agent Phil Coulson.
S.H.I.E.L.D. will be directed by Joss Whedon (The Avengers, Serenity), who will also co-write the series alongside his brother Jed Whedon (Dollhouse) and sister-in-law Maurissa Tancharoen (Oliver Beene). The show is expected to begin shooting in January 2013.
