Powers Boothe Joins Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'

The 'Sin City' and "Deadwood' actor has a recurring role on the ABC show.

No Caption Provided

A mystery man who doesn't reveal his loyalties named Gideon Malick is coming to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. The new recurring character will be played by Powers Boothe (Deadwood, Sin City) as revealed by Marvel. Boothe appeared in The Avengers as a member of the World Security Council.

“Gideon is incredibly menacing and in him we have a character that even the stone-cold Grant Ward would fear,” said Executive Producer/Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “Only someone of Powers’ caliber could deliver the type of ominous and powerful performance we needed.”

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. appears on ABC on Tuesdays at 9PM/8C.

I want him to actualy go angry and start screaming at P.O.T.U.S for creating ATCU

I wish In the end It is Revealed that he actually is Kree and Created ATCU to hunt down the Inhumans

I wonder if Gideon Malick is a whole new character in the MCU or did Marvel Studios finally gave a name to Powers Boothe's unnamed World Security Council character in the first Avengers movie?

@metroplex02: there might be a possibility that Gideon Malick has a connection to Albert Malik aka imposter red skull who was responsible for the parkers murder.

Adding Power's Booth to just about any cast, is like adding more cheese or bacon to a pizza. It is never a bad decision.

Didn't even connect those 2. Good call.
