Though he’s not actually in full flaming-skull mode just yet, the first batch of promotional images for the upcoming season 4 premiere of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. do provide us with a glimpse of Gabriel Luna (Matador, Wicked City) as Robbie Reyes, who we will see transform into the Spirit of Vengeance at some point.
The stills also feature Agents May (Ming-Na Wen) and Mackenzie (Henry Simmons), who will be heading up some kind of top secret “specialist strike teams”. This has led to speculation that S.H.I.E.L.D.’s counter-terrorist Special Mission Unit, S.T.R.I.K.E., might also be making their debut.
In addition, ABC has released a synopsis for the season premiere, which is titled “The Ghost.” t doesn’t really include any new plot details, but the cast list does tell us that Fear The Walking Dead actor Lorenzo James Henrie will be playing Robbie’s wheelchair-bound little brother, Gabe.
Check it out below and let us know what you think.
