Along with the evolution of Skye’s Inhuman powers in Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.Season 2 came the official reveal that Chloe Bennet has in fact been playing the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s version of Daisy “Quake” Johnson from the Marvel Comics universe.

With the character moving in a more super heroic direction, and the reveal that Season 3 of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be inspired by and feature characters from Secret Warriors – the series that defined Daisy as a character by putting her in the lead of a group of young, powered S.H.I.E.L.D. protégés – perhaps we’ll see Skye take on more of Daisy’s comic book superhero look.
Bennet is a little worried about the practicality of such an outfit, saying “It feels like it’s going to be hard to pee in,” but is otherwise excited about the idea.
“It would be such a fun thing to kind of get to go to work and dress up like a superhero,” she told ComicBook.com while at Comic-Con International: San Diego.
Season 2 of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. already took steps to make Skye look a bit more like Daisy, taking her out of her mostly civilian clothing from Season 1 and dressing her as a proper S.H.I.E.L.D. field agent. We even got to see a couple different versions of Quake’s signature gauntlets.
But another aspect of the character’s look that makes her instantly recognizable as Daisy is her short hair, which is a far cry from Bennet/Skye’s long locks. Could a severe shortening be in the character and actress’s near future?
“We’ll see,” Bennet says. “I want to stay true to the character, but she is different than how she is in the comic books. I think we’re going to do something a little bit edgier, and we’ll see.”
As we learned earlier this week, it looks like Chloe is getting a haircut, but how short? We’ll have to wait and see.
Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to ABC for Season 3 on Sept. 29.
