James D’Arcy, Enver Gjokaj set for ‘Agent Carter’ season 2

When Peggy Carter heads out for Los Angeles in Agent Carter Season 2, Hayley Atwell’s character will have James D’Arcy (Edwin Jarvis) and Enver Gjokaj (Agent Sousa) along for the ride, both returning for the next run of episodes. Several other Season 1 stars are said to be nearing deals as well.

EW reports D’Arcy and Gjokaj will be regulars on Season 2 of Agent Carter. Additionally, Chad Michael Murray (Agent Thompson), Lyndsy Fonesca (Angie Martinelli), and Bridget Regan (Dottie Underwood) are in negotiations, but not yet confirmed, to return.

Assuming all of the deals close, it looks like Agent Carter Season 2 will proceed with most of the Season 1 cast intact.

No news yet on whether Dominic Cooper (Howard Stark) and Ralph Brown (Johann Fennhoff) might appear as well. Cooper will be busy with AMC’s Preacher, but he may makes a guest appearance or two.

The official synopsis for the next season of Agent Carter reads as follows:

“MARVEL’S AGENT CARTER” (Season 2) “Marvel’s Agent Carter” returns for a second season of adventure and intrigue, starring Hayley Atwell in the titular role of the unstoppable secret agent for the SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve). Dedicated to the fight against new atomic age threats in the wake of World War II, Peggy must now journey from New York City to Los Angeles for her most dangerous assignment yet. But even as she discovers new friends, a new home — and perhaps even a new love — she’s about to find out that the bright lights of the post-war Hollywood mask a more sinister threat to everyone she is sworn to protect.

Agent Carter Season 2 will premiere in 2016 as part of ABC’s midseason lineup.
