Lilli Birdsell Cast In Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Lilli Birdsell has landed a recurring role in the upcoming fourth season of the ABC comic-based drama Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.

According to Deadline, Birdsell will play “Lucy, a beautiful woman with a haunting quality. She has a very violent streak in her inner self, because of things that have happened.”

Where might you know Birdsell from? She portrayed Hannah in The Walking Dead Webisodes and made guest appearances on numerous television shows like Angel, Becker, NCIS, Cold Case, Two and a Half Men, Good Luck Charlie, Castle, Bones, and, most recently, TURN: Washington’s Spies.

Season 3 ended with a flash-forward to Coulson and Agent Alphonso “Mack” MacKenzie in the field trying to chase down Daisy Johnson, who went AWOL after Lincoln’s death. Coulson has apparently stepped down as director of S.H.I.E.L.D.; meanwhile, transhumanist scientist Holden Radcliffe is preparing to introduce the world to the androids called Life Model Decoys. Season 4 will feature Gabriel Luna as Robbie Reyes, though you know him better as Ghost Rider.
