Marvel presented its new One Shot, AGENT CARTER, to lucky fans during SDCC and it can be seen in its entirety on the upcoming IRON MAN 3 Blu-ray. AGENT CARTER follows the events portrayed in CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER, with the British operative Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) having become an agent of the newly formed S.H.I.E.L.D.

Check out the first clip below…

Official 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.

After watching this I’d like to see much more of the 40s based Marvel Universe. Although a movie of this sort featuring characters other than Captain America is highly unlikely, perhaps a 40s pulp inspired TV series (a spin-off prequel to AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.) might be possible? Make it happen Joss, make it happen.

IRON MAN 3 is released on Blu-ray September 9th.
