Concept and creation

edit

Agent Coulson was one of the guys who wasn't really in the comic books, and he [had] a very kind of small role inIron Man.And I was just very lucky that they chose to expand that character and chose to put him more into the universe of it.

—Gregg on the character's expansion inThor[51]

Agent Phil Coulson was created byMark Fergus, Hawk Ostby,Art Marcum and Matt HollowayforIron Man,the first feature film in the MCU.[52][53]Coulson was the first S.H.I.E.L.D. agent introduced in the MCU, and was portrayed byClark Gregg,who was offered a three-picture deal. Gregg initially balked at this due to the character initially only being known as "Agent" and having few lines, but recognized Marvel's plan for an interconnected universe;[54]the character was ultimately given the surname "Coulson" afterDanny Coulson,whose bookNo Heroes: Inside the FBI's Secret Counter-Terror Forcewas used as a dialogue reference forIron Man.[55]Gregg went on to play the character inIron Man 2,Thor,andThe Avengers,the latter film in which he was provided the first name "Phil".[56]

Throughout the films, Coulson is generally depicted as a supporting character of the protagonists and used to represent S.H.I.E.L.D.'s presence, to the point that Gregg has described Coulson as "theS.H.I.E.L.D. agent ". However, for theMarvel One-Shotshort filmsThe ConsultantandA Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer,Coulson is given "a chance to stand in his own spotlight for once". This was a "natural" move for co-producer Brad Winderbaum, who wanted to "paint a picture of S.H.I.E.L.D. pulling the strings and being responsible for some of the events we've seen in the films. What better character to represent this idea than Agent Coulson, the first S.H.I.E.L.D. agent we were introduced to?"[56]

At the 2012New York Comic Con,Joss WhedonandKevin Feigeannounced that Gregg would be starring as Coulson inAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,despite the character dying inThe Avengers,with Whedon saying "He's headlining the S.H.I.E.L.D. show and always was."[57]Gregg said of Whedon's explanation for Coulson's resurrection, "I found it so fascinating and so true to the world of the comics and mythology in general as I understand them that I was immediately in."[58]Regarding the amount of creative input he has over the character in the series, Gregg said, "I have meetings with [theshowrunners] once or twice a year and talk about what the big ideas are... They're really responsive to the fact that I've been involved with this person four, five years longer than them, but... I have no complaints with what they're doing. "[59]

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.costume designer Ann Foley described Coulson as a "company man", wearing suits in "the S.H.I.E.L.D. palette—grey, black and navy with a distinct but subtle pattern." Foley did note "subtle changes" in Coulson's costuming in the series from the films, such as streamlined suits and "more slick" ties, "now that [he] is back after being 'killed' by Loki".[60]After Coulson's hand is cut off in the second-season finale, which was realized by having a mechanical axe cut through a "faux arm made of tripe wrapped around a chicken thigh", Gregg described it as "heavy... one of those things where you're having the practical difficulty your character does. People were handing me stuff, like files, and I couldn't really open them without using my nose."[61]This practicality issue continued with the prosthetic hand Coulson subsequently has to use, with Gregg saying "the reality informs the thing. It's really hard to figure out how to use this prosthetic, and that's what Phil Coulson's going through... I'm hoping it evolves at some point."[62]Gregg also noted that in the third season Coulson would be wearing more casual clothes, partly because "he can't even seem to tie a tie" with his new hand.[63]The prosthetic hand evolves throughout the season, with a later iteration projecting an energy shield, inspired bya similar oneused in the comics byCaptain America.[64]The energy shield was created by Cosa, one of the series' visual effects vendors.[65]

There had been considerations for Coulson to return inIron Man 3andThor: The Dark World,[66]but the character was not slated to appear in any more films.[67]Whedon asserts, "As far as the fiction of the movies, Coulson is dead",[68]elaborating that "generally [he feels] like theS.H.I.E.L.D.audience andThe Avengersaudiences are not actually the same group, necessarily, "and so the films would have to explain Coulson's resurrection again for the film-only audience if he were to be reintroduced.[69]Gregg reprises the role once again inCaptain Marvel(2019), as the film is set in the 1990s.[70]Gregg is digitally de-aged by 25 years, along with co-starSamuel L. Jackson,the first time Marvel has done this for an entire film.[71]In regards to the character's resurrection within the MCU canon, however,Lokihead writerMichael Waldronsuggested that, as that show's series premiere "Glorious Purpose"implies, Coulson actually died inThe Avengersand the events ofAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.take place in a parallel timeline.[72]

Characterization

edit

Gregg has stated, "I think of Agent Coulson, after all these years, as a guy with a full life. I think every day he's somewhere doing something for S.H.I.E.L.D., and yet I don't always know what that is... There's always a different twist. In this one he gets to show more of his wisecracking wit, and in this one he's a little bit more of a badass."[56]Despite Coulson being called "the most recognizable face in the Marvel Comics movie universe", he is depicted as an "everyman"in a universe full of superheroes—" the glue that binds "the characters together. Gregg explained his portrayal of the character as" just a guy grumbling about his job... he's tasked with handling these kind of diva superheroes, you know? 'Oh, really, Asgard? Dude, just get in the car.' "[73]

By being so front and center inMarvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.in a way that he wasn't as much in the films... he's gotten some power. He's at the front lines, and what is the cost of that going to be?

–Gregg, on how starring in the television series can affect Coulson differently to appearing in the films.[74]

On whether the resurrected Coulson would be the same as before he died, Gregg said "I don't know how you could not change going through what he went through. I think if he hadn't gone through some kind of change, it wouldn't be any good. That said, I don't know if he understands how much he's changed."[58]Later exploring some of those changes, Gregg stated "In some ways, he kinda finds himself not nearly as cold or ruthless as he would like to be, or as he has been. And at the same time, putting together this team, he feels driven by motives inside of himself that he can't quite always make sense of and that feels very new to him."[75]

After Coulson was promoted to Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Gregg said "He kind of got his dream job that I don't even think he would have ever dreamed he would be given... he's got a little bit more of an idealistic, big hearted side of him [than Nick Fury does], some of which is going to be extinguished by the hard decisions he has to make." Speaking about the evolving nature of Coulson's relationship with his team, Gregg said "There's a way he can afford an intimacy with all of them when they're part of a small, elite squad on the Bus. It's different than what's possible for him as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D."[74]Discussing Coulson's character progression through three seasons in relation to him killing Ward on the alien planet, executive producerJeffrey Bellsaid, "First season Coulson would have beat Ward up and then thrown him over his shoulder and brought him back to Earth and locked him away. Season two Coulson would have defeated him and left him there on the other planet to fend for himself," while season three Coulson paused while the portal to Earth was already closing to take the time to kill Ward.[76]

For the fourth season, Coulson is demoted back to field agent status. Gregg said that the reasoning for this "makes sense given that S.H.I.E.L.D. is coming out of the shadows. There are people that will want their person in charge." He felt that Coulson would actually prefer this, saying, "I always felt like Coulson was happiest in the field. Neither I nor Coulson loved playing and listening while his agents went into dangerous situations. And there are more dramatic possibilities when you have a boss that you have to deal with."[77]

Alternate forms

Reception

edit

In his review forAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s first season, Evan Valentine at Collider named Clark Gregg as one of the high points of the series, noting that the actor was "one positive I consistently point out in each and every episode". Valentine stated that "What made us fall in love with the character from the firstIron Manto his death inThe Avengersis still alive and kicking. Coulson was able to throw out quips like none other, while also turning on a dime, and expressing serious rage in moments... Gregg raises the S.H.I.E.L.D. banner high ".[78]Reviewing the episode "The Writing on the Wall",which concluded the majority of Coulson's storyline in the series up to that point, Kevin Fitzpatrick of ScreenCrush praised how Coulson had become" unglued "throughout the series, which had" pushed the newly-minted director into some dark places ".[79]Eric Goldman, reviewing forIGN,was also positive of the "unhinged version of Coulson",[80]as well as the more serious leadership role the character took on for thesecond season,with Goldman finding Coulson's decision in "Making Friends and Influencing People"thatDonnie Gill"either went with them or had to be taken out" to be especially notable.[81]

Clark Gregg won forBest Supporting ActorinThe Avengersat the39th Saturn Awards.[82]
