Haley Atwell Hopeful for Agent Carter To Show In The UK Later This Year

Hayley Atwell ("Captain America: The Winter Soldier") attended the 2015 Jameson Empire Awards and presented the award for best Male Newcomer. While she was there she was asked about the status of Agent Carter airing in the UK.

"I think it will later on in the year," Hayley Atwell said. "There is a really chance that the UK is going to get it. There must be a slight bidding war for the channel at the moment. Fingers crossed it won't be too long."

All 8 episode of Marvel's Agent Carter mini-series have aired stateside on ABC, but for fans across the pond they'll have to hold their breathe as the show doesn't currently have a UK broadcaster. The UK's Channel 4, which aired Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., already said they have no interest in acquiring the rights to Agent Carter.
