Most Wanted, ultimately at the end of the day, did not feel as strong as some of the other pilots that we shot. We talked about it with Marvel and we all came to an agreement that we want to figure out what the next show is that we do together, is something that we all feel is as creatively strong as it can be.
- So, ABC appears to want to follow it up, by ordering a pilot for Mockingbird: Marvel’s Most Wanted. For those unfamiliar, the pilot would follow SHIELD agent Bobbi Morse (Adrianne Palicki).
- Marvel's Most Wanted is an unaired American television pilot created by Jeffrey Bell and Paul Zbyszewski for ABC, based on the Marvel Comics characters Bobbi Morse and Lance Hunter. It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and acknowledges the continuity of the franchise's films and other television series.

- Therefore, this petition is specifically directed to new ABC Entertainment President Channing Dungey and president of Disney/ABC Television Ben Sherwood to ask them to re-consider their repeated decision to pass on Marvel's 'Most Wanted' and to, at the very least, decide to air the finished pilot episode on television - simply to see what the.
Agents of SHIELD has been superb this season, and Agent Carter‘s second season looks like a promising followup to an excellent series. So, ABC appears to want to follow it up, by ordering a pilot for Mockingbird: Marvel’s Most Wanted.

For those unfamiliar, the pilot would follow SHIELD agent Bobbi Morse (Adrianne Palicki) and her ex-husband Lance Hunter (Nick Blood) as they hunt down supervillains, HYDRA agents, and assorted scum of the Marvel Universe. Well, Bobbi will hunt down supervillains. If this season of Agents of SHIELD is any indication, Hunter will screw up her operations with his machismo and complain a lot.
It’s not clear exactly how much it will cross over with its mother series, or who else might be cast, although ABC has been oddly insistent that the show is not a spin-off. That said, as Agents of SHIELD has embraced its superspy-meets-superheroes concept and stepped away from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it’s become great in its own right, so it’s not clear exactly what this new take could bring to the table.
One thing Marvel and ABC might try, and which would be exciting, is to make it a limited summer series that picks up once Agents of SHIELD ends in May. Agent Carter, Daredevil, and Jessica Jones all benefited enormously from shorter runs, and one arc, or a few short arcs, of hunting specific villains would suit the idea well.

The plan appears to remain that the pilot will air as an episode of Agents of SHIELD and if response is positive enough, it’ll go to series next year. Although we’re kind of hoping Fitz gets his own series, considering what a badass he’s been this season. Come on, ABC, you’ve made him a Scottish Indiana Jones, that deserves some play.

With the continued success of Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' ABC is not stopping itself from coming up with new ideas for new shows at the network. According to an IGN report, Marvel has reportedly ordered a pilot for a spinoff of the 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'
The spinoff, which is tentatively called 'Marvel's Most Wanted', will reportedly star the character Mockingbird, otherwise known as Bobbi Morse in the hit superhero series. In the series, the character is played by Adrianne Palicki and with the pilot order, she is expected to cross over to the new series if needed. The project will also reportedly feature Morse's on-and-off partner Lance Hunter, who is played by Nick Blood.
The IGN report also mentioned that as early as April 2015, rumors about the spinoff project were already circulating but were quickly followed by news that it was no longer pushing through.
Recent reports however point to a revival of the project. Another report in BGR mentioned that the project was junked early on, but ABC president Paul Lee himself later hinted that 'the show might rise from the ashes after all' and added, 'It certainly is a possibility of spinning them off.' The report also said that the network has yet to decide if it will eventually run the spinoff as it all depends on how the public will respond to the pilot. If this is the case, then the upcoming season of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' may possibly touch on how the characters of Morse and Hunter will be leaving the team.
The IGN report identified Jeff Bell and Paul Zbyszewski as the show's creators and writers. They are also named as executive producers and showrunners. Jeph Loeb, who is Marvel's head of television, will also be executive producing.
An earlier report described the series as 'an entirely new project solely focused on the two characters to continue their story. 'Marvel's Most Wanted' will follow the pair and their adventures together.'
