As the Marvel Cinematic Universe has evolved on the big screen, the small screen has also grown through the ABC series Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which has dealt with a lot during its first two seasons, from exploring S.H.I.E.L.D.’s battle agaisnt Hydra to introducing the Inhumans. Now, in its upcoming third season, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be bringing in the Secret Warriors from the comics into the MCU for the first time. Two of the show’s core characters are Agent Leo Fitz (played by Iain de Caestecker) and Agent Jemma Simmons (played by Elizabeth Henstrdige), who have been known as the science duo FitzSimmons. However, in Season 2, the pair’s relationship started to come apart with both of them being changed after the tragic events of the Season 1 finale. And although the Season 2 finale saw the two of them stronger than ever, the fate of Simmons remains unknown after she was literally swallowed by the Kree stone.
TVOvermind was fortunate enough to participate in the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
