Thor: The Dark World is to heavily impact the plot of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., it has been announced, as an upcoming episode will pick up the plot threads left over from the big-screen adventure.
The episode, due to air on November 19th in the US, titled 'The Well', will follow on from the events of The Dark World, which is released Stateside on November 8. The movie is already out here in the UK.The official synopsis reads: "In the aftermath of the events chronicled in the feature film Marvel's Thor: The Dark World, Coulson and the Agents of SHIELD pick up the pieces - one of which threatens to destroy a member of the team."
None of the big-screen stars have been announced as appearing, although the guest cast does include former 24/Ghostbusters 2 star Peter MacNicol as Professor Elliot Randolph.
While this is all very exciting, and it truly is interesting to see the show acknowledge and interact with the main Cinematic Universe, one of the main complaints about the series thusfar is the fact that it has initially struggled to find its own identity. It would be nice if Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. could find its own feet a bit more before becoming more entrenched in the mythology of the movies.
