We’re catching up all things Comic Con as this year’s event sadly comes to a close. On Friday evening at the Gaslamp 15 cinema across the road from the convention center in Downtown San Diego, a special presentation of the new Marvel ‘One Shot,’ AGENT CARTER took place. The short stars Hayley Atwell, who was at the presentation, along with Louis D’Esposito, Director & Marvel Studios Co-President, producer Brad Winderbaum, and writer Eric Pearson.
Marvel invited Comic-Con fans to attend a special screening of MARVEL ONE SHOT: AGENT CARTER, followed by the filmmaker/talent Q&A panel to celebrate the release of IRON MAN 3 on Blu-Ray, DVD and digital download in September. The short appears as a bonus film on the release.
Here’s the synopsis:
Picking up where the events of CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER left off, “Agent Carter” tracks British operative Peggy Carter (THE FIRST AVENGER’s Hayley Atwell) as she joins the nascent S.H.I.E.L.D. organization. As she searches for the enigmatic “Zodiac” key, Agent Carter also battles her sexist, bureaucratic boss, Agent Flynn (THE WEST WING’s Bradley Whitford), who thinks women have no place in the secret-agent business.
Co-starring Dominic Cooper (CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER) as Howard Stark, “Agent Carter” is the fourth entry in the fan-favorite “Marvel One-Shot” Short Film Series, which exists within the continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
