Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Characters Transition to New Show Begins

Bobbie Morse and Lance Hunter have began their move to Marvel’s new Most Wanted.

Though the current season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. still has some episodes left, Morse and Hunter made their departure from the show last night.

Though this was planned, they had to fit the story in to this episode as the pair had to move on to the now already filmed pilot episode of Most Wanted.

Most Wanted Showrunner Jeff Bell had this to say about why their departure had to happen now

“Because they physically had to go leave to shoot the pilot. Pretty simple. We’ve shot the pilot and we’re in post on it, but they had to stop being on SHIELD and get ready for the pilot and then shoot the pilot and all of that, so it didn’t make sense for us to have all these episodes with them and then not have them in two or three episodes, and then go, “Oh, we were just over here,” and then come back and go away again. On many levels, it was a practical issue. It’s also anything can happen at any time on this show, and I love that about the show as well.”

He also confirmed that the order for the show is still just the pilot and that they are currently just finishing the edit of the episode so it has yet to be shown to Executives at ABC.
