Simon Kassianides Joins AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. As 'Bakshi'
Deadline report that British Quantum Of Solace actor Simom Kassiandes has signed on to appear in the second season of the Marvel tv series as a (probable) villainous character called Bakshi, who seems to have been created for the show.
Ever heard of a Marvel Comics character named Bakshi? Me neither, but that's who British actor Simon Kassianides will be playing in the second season of Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. According to Deadline it's be a major recurring role, and Bakshi is a "confident right-hand man who’s not afraid to do the dirty work." The site don't mention if that's good guy or bad guy dirty work, but based on the wording I'd say it's a safe bet it's the latter. Kassianides has previously appeared in the likes if Quantum Of Solace and tv's Burn Notice. Season 2 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premieres Sept, 23.
