AtwellCarterFollowing the release of atmospheric one-shot short Agent Carter on the Iron Man 3 Blu-ray, Marvel are reportedly working on developing the concept into a full television series, just a week before Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. debuts on ABC.

The short saw Hayley Atwell reprise her role as Captain America’s girlfriend Peggy Carter. As an agent wannabe in an early 1940s version of S.H.I.E.L.D., she more than proves her worth to the organisation, despite obstruction from sexist superiors.

A writer is in the early stages of developing the series, and it is as yet unclear if Atwell would be involved in recreating the role for a weekly television series.
