As Agent Carter winds down, the midseason premiere of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is set to give fans glimpses into “a new world order,” following the events of last year’s finale. In the episode “Bouncing Back,” Coulson becomes more determined than ever to end Gideon Malick and Hydra once and for all.
To do that, it seems that the long-teased Secret Warriors might finally become an organized team to face Hydra, not to mention the rising threat of a possibly evil group of Inhumans. And let’s not forget that S.H.I.E.L.D. has the looming danger of Ward hanging over their heads, who has been confirmed as Secret Warriors villain Hive.
[zergpaid]The new episode of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premieres Tuesday, March 8th on ABC. The network also released a handful of new images from the premiere, which give a sneak peek at the return of MCU president Matthew Ellis (William Sadler) and a few new mysterious faces.
Check out the images below, along with the lengthy description for “Bouncing Back,” and let us know in the comments where you think the show will go as it heads towards the end of season three.
“BIGGER THREATS LOOM AHEAD AS THE TEAM TRIES TO STRIKE DOWN HYDRA, ON THE MIDSEASON PREMIERE OF “MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.” ON ABC
In the midseason premiere, “Bouncing Back,” in the aftermath of his trip to Maveth, Coulson is more determined than ever to get to Gideon Malick and put an end to Hydra once and for all. Meanwhile, Daisy and the team encounter more Inhumans who have powers like they’ve never seen before, but will they be friends or enemies of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
No longer able to keep powered people out of the public eye, Daisy and Mack press forward to find more Inhumans, building a team of secret warriors whose mission is to train and protect powered people. However, the growing presence of Inhumans proves to be a polarizing issue, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. team must face conflicting public opinions and defend their team from groups who have a more extreme ideology.
The divide between those who want to protect Inhumans and those who seek to destroy them is constantly widening, and Hydra, now strengthened by Grant Ward, looms once again. However, Ward is no longer the same villainous traitor that they once knew, and the team faces an all-new enemy, whose motivations, goals and strengths are unclear. Uncertain about who (or what) they are facing, the stakes for S.H.I.E.L.D. and their assembled group of Secret Warriors are higher than ever, bringing some members of the team closer together and driving others apart. Will S.H.I.E.L.D. be able to stop one of the most powerful Inhumans to walk the Earth?”
