The Latest Mandalorian Had Maybe a Little Too Much Fan Service for Its Own Good

Oh, so you thought Baby Yoda, jet-pack wearing Mandalorians, beskar, and camtonos made The Mandalorian a geeky, self-referential entry into the Star Wars canon? You haven’t seen anything yet. The latest episode of the show was so packed full of Star Wars winks, nods, and callbacks you’ll either love it or hate it. Personally, I…

Say Hello to Ming-Na Wen’s Badass Mandalorian Character

Ming-Na Wen. Badass. Interchangeable descriptions, really. Vanity Fair has just dropped a sneaky new teaser for The Mandalorian. It’s got some new footage compared to even last week’s trailer, one that, shock of shocks, actually features a lot more than just Werner Herzog Werner-Herzogging all over the show. Actual dialogue, albeit brief! We get to…

The Cast of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD Told Us Just How Crazy Things Are About To Get

The fact the set of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD is so quiet on a Wednesday afternoon is in direct opposition to the insanity of the show itself. We visited the Culver City set and there was nothing going on in Coulson’s office. Fitz and Simmons’ lab was silent and the common area was deserted. But…

In this clip from the pilot episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen) is reluctant to return to the field, and so Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) turns on the charm to pull her from S.H.I.E.L.D.’s bureaucratic basement. Come on, Agent May, how can you resist that Whedony dialogue? Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premieres Tuesday,…

Meet Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.‘s deadliest, most mysterious operative

We’ve met Agents Ward, Fitz and Simmons; now it’s time to meet the resident badass of Coulson’s special ops S.H.I.E.L.D. team, Melinda May. Play by Ming-Na Wen, May seems to be the team’s equivalent of Black Widow — except this team doesn’t have Thor, Cap, Iron Man, Hulk, or even a Hawkeye. Something tells me…

Meet the First New Agent in Joss Whedon’s S.H.I.E.L.D.: Stargate‘s Ming-Na.

Ming-Na Wen, formerly from ER and Stargate Universe, will play a “soulful” and “damaged” pilot named Melinda May in Joss Whedon’s new S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show. Melinda May is described as “an ace pilot, a weapons expert and a soldier who can – and has – gone beyond the call of duty.” And apparently she’s the…
