With the return of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” this March, the series has already added a new villain to face our heroes with Emmy-winning actress Drea de Matteo!

Matteo will play Karla Faye Gideon, a Gifted woman with a grudge to bear against S.H.I.E.L.D. who joins forces with Skye’s father, Cal.

“We’re thrilled to have Drea join us as yet another great villain to challenge our cast,” said Executive Producer and Marvel’s Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “We relished the opportunity to work with her in such a menacing role.”

Matteo earned an Emmy for her role as Adriana La Cerva in “The Sopranos,” and since then has starred in series such as “Sons of Anarchy,” “Desperate Housewives,” and “Joey.”

"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is Executive Produced by Joss Whedon ("Marvel's The Avengers," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"); Jed Whedon & Maurissa Tancharoen, ("Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." pilot co-writers, "Dollhouse," "Dr.Horrible's Sing-Along Blog"); Jeffrey Bell ("Angel," "Alias"); and Jeph Loeb (“Marvel’s Agent Carter,” “Marvel’s Daredevil,” "Lost").

"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is produced by Marvel Television and ABC Studios. "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." returns on Tuesday, March 3 at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC.

  2. "Gifted"
    So she's an Inhuman? They used similar terminology for Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver (who are now Inhumans).

  6. Ooo I love her!! As always when a new AOS character is announced I googled the name to see if they have a comics counterpart and Karla Faye Gideon is in the comics but as a minor minor character and with no powers, sometimes they just like to use the character names. Though she does have a connection with Daredevil which is interesting.

  14. Joining forces with Cal. I guess he's going to hold a grudge against Coulson for Whitehall. I wonder if she might be the woman with the agents surrounding her in one of the promos?
