Jaimie Alexander Returns To AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. As 'Sif'
The Thor: The Dark World actress reprised the role of Lady Sif in a season 1 episode of Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D, and now she's set to return... but without her memories! Sif will also be battling a yet-to-be revealed super-powered villain. Click on for more details...
TV Insider report that Jaimie Alexander will once again play Asagardian warrior Sif in an upcoming episode of Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D, and the manner in which she'll make her Earthly return sounds very intriguing indeed! According to the site, Sif will show up in her civvies (see the pic above) on the Portuguese coast, where she'll engage in a battle with a "foe whose superpowers are equal to her own". Marvel won't reveal this baddie, so all speculation is welcome -- but chances are it's another Asgardian?
Anyway, their smackdown makes the news and prompts the S.H.I.E.L.D. guys and gals to investigate, discovering Sif has lost her short-term memory. "Sif has no idea who Thor is or that she serves a king, and we're going to have fun with that," says executive producer Jeffrey Bell. "It'll give us some much-needed humor in a season that's been full of betrayal and death. Sif can't even recall who she came here from Asgard to stop, but Agent Coulson [Clark Gregg] and his team will try to help her figure all that out." Sif still knows who she is and where she comes from however, and apparently Coulson and co. will try to tap into her knowledge of other alien races to better understand what's going on with Skye since her "Inhuman" incident. Sif returns in the episode following the March 3rd midseason première.
