MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.: Clark Gregg on the Introduction of Bill Paxton’s Agent Garrett

March 4, 2014 by  

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. has been off the air for a while, but it returns tonight with a new episode and…a friend for Coulson?!

“Everybody has that friend that knows a little too much about them,” S.H.I.E.L.D. star Clark Gregg told reporters. “And I would say Bill Paxton’s character and Agent Coulson are both that to each other…I always think about this scene [in the movie] where Agent Coulson and Thor walk out with this megaphone to deal with this giant, metal death monster in the desert, and he’s like, ‘Oh, God, what do we have now?’ And I thought that was such a telling scene, because I thought, what has his week been like if this is boring to him? And when you see the [banter] between Agent Coulson and Agent Garrett, which is [Paxton’s] character’s name, you think, yeah, these two guys have been through one too many weeks like that.”

“And I also like that they’re at a similar age,” Gregg continued. “So they get to tease each other about how slow they are getting up, and stuff like that. That’s fun for me.”

Off-screen, Gregg is equally delighted to have Paxton around.

“I’m such a huge fan of his,” Gregg gushed. “He’s brought such an everyman quality of his own, and his comic flair to such amazing movies like A SIMPLE PLAN to ALIENS. Once I got over being a little starstruck by having him around, we’ve been having a lot of fun.”

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. airs Tuesdays at 8 PM on ABC.
