"Agents of Shield" Season 2 release date has finally been confirmed for September 23, 2014.

In cast rumors surrounding Season 2, it has been touted that there will be a new agent joining the cast, and that should add a bit more drama into the mix.

Season 1 was a reasonably acceptable success. The Marvel movies set the bar high, and the producers had a difficult line to walk in terms of integrating the show with the movies, while not alienating any potential viewers. Critics were lukewarm, and while it looks fantastic, the show could make the relationships and characters as complex as the action.

ABC has confirmed the "Agents of Shield" Season 2 release date on Tuesday night on September 23, 2014, however, fans should be aware that a new time slot has been agreed for the new season. That means fans will have to look out for the show at 9 p.m. ET from now on. A new time slot can mean a new life for a show, or mean the network doesn''t know what to do with it and is shuffling it around.

According to TV Line, the cast line up will be added to when the show returns. The publication has released a spoiler claiming that a "ruggedly handsome, physically fit actor to play a character who can escape any situation, is a bit of a wild card and, though he's mostly interested in personal gain, always ends up doing the right thing."

So pretty much just replacing the Ward character that tunred on the team in the first season. 

IGN asked the executive producers Jeffrey Bell, Maurissa Tancharoen and Jed Whedon about "Agents of Shield" Season 2.

"Season 1 ended with some huge changes to the status quo, in the wake of the Hydra reveal in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Nick Fury has now named Coulson the director of a new incarnation of SHIELD, which he essentially is building from the ground up. But just how large is this new SHIELD? And how official are they, given Fury himself is believed to be dead?

Jeffrey Bell: That's one of the things we're going to be exploring. Who's out there? Who went to Hydra? Who didn't? Who can we trust?

Maurissa Tancharoen: What does it mean to be the director of something that's fallen apart?

Bell: I mean, once we could say "Hydra" and there were double-crosses and spies in our midst, the show got really interesting. So continuing that with SHIELD and Coulson -- not willing to trust people, not willing to bring people in...

Jed Whedon: Right -- what happened too, because he doesn't have as many resources. We think we can keep that "Trust no one alive" [feel].

Tancharoen: And as Agent Coulson, I think it was very clear that he was the kind of man to leave no man behind. But now as director, I think we're going to explore, you know, maybe he has to make tougher decisions, harder calls.

Whedon: Last we saw them, they were being hunted. They were no one's friends. They're in a bit of a pickle when we find them."
