Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. adds Jason O’Mara for Season 4!
At the end of Season 3, there was a six month time jump where we learned a new director had taken charge at S.H.I.E.L.D. The mystery is now over as we learn that Jason O’Mara has landed that role. He will be playing a character “who’s Marvel roots go back to the 1940s.”
Here’s what Marvel TV chief, Jeph Loeb had to say on O’Mara’s casting:
“Bringing Jason into the mix as the new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. forces everyone, particularly Coulson, to reevaluate their role in the Agency. Jason has both the physical presence and acting dynamics that will connect with and challenge even the most loyal agent.”
O’Mara’s other TV credits include Terra Nova, Complications, and The Good Wife.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns for Season 4 on Tuesday, September 20th at 10/9c.
