Agents of SHIELD Is Getting A Spin-Off!

On the eve of the debut of Marvel's third television show, Daredevil, it appears the studio is making moves on a new TV show. Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive scoop that some kind of spin-off of Agents of SHIELD is in development, though they don't know who the program would center on or an exact release date.

Interestingly, unlike on Agents of SHIELD, Joss Whedon won't be an executive producer in the program, though it is retaining an executive producer, Jeffrey Bell, and a writer of AoS, Paul Zbyszewski, as developers of the show. I'm not sure there's a ton of options for a spin-off for this show, though two possibilities that leap to my mind are a prequel show focusing on a younger Melinda May and a show focusing on Mockingbird (who needs to be in Captain America: Civil War!)

I'm sure we'll hear more news shortly, as official confirmation on what shows ABC actually wants for this forthcoming TV season will be coming in early May.
