Jed Whedon spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the upcoming season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and how it would connect with the latest MCU film Doctor Strange.
There most likely won’t be any Doctor Strange name drops in S.H.I.E.L.D., but just the very existence of the film justifies the show being able to do its own thing with magical forces.
Given that the show is introducing the supernatural just as the MCU does the same with Doctor Strange, there will be some minor connective tissue, but not to any extreme degree.
S.H.I.E.L.D. will be introducing its take on the supernatural Ghost Rider, who will bring his own “strange elements” to the show.
