Oscar-Winnng Writer to 'Re-Invent' MARVEL Superhero For Secret New ABC Series:
Entertainment Weekly is reporting that John Ridley, writer/producer of the award-winning film 12 Years A Slave, is working with Marvel Studios on a new television series for ABC. This would be the third Marvel series for ABC after Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter - fourth, if you factor in the reported Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. spinoff in development.
EW's sources tell them that Ridley's Marvel project "involves reinventing an existing Marvel superhero character or property" but don't narrow down the field.
Ridley is no stranger to comics, having written several titles for DC's now-defunct Wildstorm imprint including The American Way and a one-shot of The Authority.
I didn't know he'd written comics!
Finally! The Devil Dinosaur show we've all been waiting for.
I thought Dichen Lachman did a lot better in Dolhouse portraying different characters than Eliza Dushku

No question. I thought she was great on that show and feel something is off about her here. Feels very forced.

Maybe that's a deliberate choice. Maybe some of the ruling elders/WSC/Hydra/Kree (or whoever's pulling the strings) are forcing her in some way.
Or she's already gone through the mist. She apparently doesn't age, and she managed to recover from being vivisected, with help.
I have to wonder what Skye's mother is up to.
Yeah, I don't trust her, either. And it seemed like there was something shifty in the "I'm 26?" conversation, but hell if I know what. I assume it'll come back up.
I kept waiting to care what was happening with Skye.
I loved her shirt, tho. Couldn't quite tell if it was denim or chambray.

I love that that is your take-away!
I want more Fitz and less Skye. And I don't hate Skye, but I really love Fitz and Simmons and Coulson and everybody else more.
