Agents of Shield season 2: Avengers Age of Ultron tie-in confirmed by producers, watch mid-season finale live stream online

Update: In his latest interview with Entertainment Weekly, Agents of Shield executive producer Jed Whedon reveals that the series will connect to Avengers: Age of Ultron.

"You should expect something," Whedon says. "The Avengers is the big tent that all the franchises play under. Obviously, we're included in that."

"I don't think any movie has the potential to impact us in the way that Captain America 2 did," executive producer Maurissa Tancharoen adds, "but there will be connections."

The explosive mid-season finale of Agents of Shield season 2 airs tonight (9<sup>th December) and promises to bring all missing pieces of the puzzle together to reveal the big picture.

The official synopsis for the upcoming episode titled What They Become, reads:

"Coulson and Whitehall's forces meet in an explosive confrontation that dramatically alters everyone's fates. Meanwhile, Skye discovers shocking secrets about her past."

According to Forbes, the mid-season finale is "quite possibly the best episode of the series to date." In its spoilers-free review, the website states that "where the episode goes in its final act is to a place few ever expected the series would dare."

As per the report, fans must brace themselves to discover the answers "to every immediately important question they've had since the premiere."

Meanwhile, in his latest interview with Comicbook.com, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Clark Gregg (Phil Coulson) responded to Arrow star Stephen Amell's recent comment that he would like to do an Arrow and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. crossover.

Last week, in a Facebook Q&A in advance of the Arrow and The Flash crossover, Stephen Amell was asked what other show he would like Arrow to do a crossover with. Amell responded, "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Just because...because why not?"

When Comicbook.com asked Gregg if he would be interested in sharing the screen with Amell, here's what Gregg had to say:

"I was really flattered to read that. He's a fantastic dude and that show is so great! Are you kidding me? I'd love to have a scene with him."

Gregg added, "I have so many fantasies that involve so many crossovers, not only with the DC Universe, but a galaxy far far away! Magneto! Spidey! I got to work with Spidey in animated form. I have my hopes. I hope the lawyers get together like the World Security Council and suddenly peace on Earth will reign."

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 2, Episode 10 'What They Become', will air on Tuesday, 9<sup>th December, at 9 pm EDT on ABC.
