TVLine Interview

Well, there had been various calls and various suggestions, the showrunners had spoken to me a couple of times about the possibility of coming back….. I think I first heard through Iain. I think he texted me probably when he wasn’t meant to. He told me what they were planning, and it was very nice to get the opportunity to get a whole episode of me and Iain. We had a lot of fun and were really looking forward to it.[Laughs] Thankfully, Hunter has been absent so he was as much in the dark as I was! I didn’t have to do too much catching up. I got the basics and then just ran with it.The thing is, because they do such an amazing job of building sets, you’re used to things constantly changing. But seeing what was the [S.H.I.E.L.D.] base transformed into another sort of place is kind of weirdly family but very different at the same time.Well, he’s been up his usual tricks, doing some mercenary work and bickering with Bobbi. He doesn’t necessarily have access to all the bells-and-whistles and gadgetry that S.H.I.E.L.D. did, so he has to use his charm and his wit to break down doors, and call in a few favors from his dodgy friends — who at times are quite unreliable!
