    Is Samuel L. Jackson cheaper than Scarlett Johansson and/or Jeremy Renner?

    Sounds more like a wish-list to me than actual news.

    At a standard rate? Probably not. The difference is Samuel L. Jackson just loves campy roles and is happy to do things like this on a TV budget. Johansson and Renner are movie stars so they'd probably be reluctant to do a TV appearance anyway and certainly wouldn't be enthusiastic about doing it for less.

    You're confusing two characters
    Sharon Carter is Emily Van Camp's character in CA:TWS. Peggy Carter is Hayley Atwell's character in both CA movies and the upcoming Agent Carter series.

    Knowing Marvel they may have put something in their contracts that makes them obligated to make X number of appearances in tie-in productions.

    We have a pretty good idea of what their contracts are and that they don't include TV tie-in appearances. Samuel Jackson has specifically said his TV appearances were separate from his movie contract.

    Granted, had they known about the TV show far enough in advance, they might have done that, but I don't think they accounted for it.

    The expense of an AoS appearance by Johanson or Renner could easily be written of as a promotional expense for Age of Ultron. Synergy.

    I don't doubt that. I'm just saying the uniqueness of Samuel L. Jackson places him in his own category that doesn't lend itself to examples with others.

    Yeah. Point taken about Jackson taking his gigs where he knows or expects to have a certain amount of fun in the process. And I am absolutely grateful for that.

    The others would be Nice to Have Around as well, but...we'll see what can happen, I guess. Maybe Jackson talks them around to his way of thinking at some point, maybe something else happens, maybe nothing does. In any case, we'll get by.

    Thanks for clarifying...though i think that is still a clear & obvious tie to connect the two.

    It definitely sounds fannish. But I was jesting-- the quality of the writing has no effect on how substantial the rumors are.

    I don't care because this is basically a rumor anyway (and Marvel has been really crappy about keeping guest appearances on the show a secret), but I just want to point out that it's really easy to figure out what's in the spoiler code based on the rest of the posts.

    Has there been any official word yet on whether B.J. Britt will be promoted to star and Brett Dalton will be demoted to guest star?

    ^Sciencefiction.com talks about season 2 but doesn't go in too much detail, but the cast they list are:

    They do mention the show may be darker and the fact there won't be breaks (between Agents of SHIELD and Agent Carter which will be played halfway through AoS):

    It hasn't been announced, though. That just uses first season's cast combined with what has been announced (such as scheduling).

    I wonder if there will be any focus on any of the other escaped inmates from the Fridge. There's got to be more guys as dangerous as Blackout.

    And not all of them would have been caught by Coulson and/or May. The lack of familiarity could be as much a challenge to their recapture as any grudges.

    I know we're probably going to see more B list heroes. Deathlok is just a stepping stone to something bigger.
