Marvel Makes Plans for 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' Spinoff

What could it be about? When could we expect it?

Looks like we might be getting another Marvel television series on ABC. Entertainment Weekly has reported that Marvel is planning on a spinoff from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. No further information is available except that it's being developed by AoS executive producer Jeffrey Bell and writer Paul Zbyszewski. It's believed the show could begin as early as next fall or possibly as a midseason show. Despite these plans, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. hasn't been officially renewed as ABC hasn't made their official decisions yet.

What could the show be about? What about the members of the "real" SHIELD?

Maybe we'll see Edward James Olmos' team handle things their way. Adrienne Palicki did officially become a series regular back in February. We're seeing her loyalty wavering between the two different SHIELD groups.

What about an Inhumans spinoff?

It might be too early since the movie isn't set to be released until 2019. We did see a sort of sanctuary for Inhumans that went through Terragenesis. If the movie focuses more on the traditional Inhumans like Black Bolt and Medusa, an Inhumans spinoff could lay down some more of the groundwork before the movie even begins production.

Maybe we'll see an Agent Ward spinoff?

Since his true muddy colors were revealed, he hasn't shown up too much on the show this season (although he is set to return). Could a series focusing on his dark path in the Marvel Cinematic Universe work?

If we do see spinoff from Agents of SHIELD, what does that mean for Agent Carter? The show was fantastic but unfortunately didn't have the highest ratings. It should also be noted that this is being reported as a spinoff for Agents of SHIELD. That means seeing another, unrelated, Marvel character get their own show would be unlikely.
