As the season premiere of the next Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. draws near, the show's producers are releasing fresh information and spoilers to whet the appetite of its millions of fans across the globe.

In an exclusive report, Entertainment Weekly  revealed that actress Constance Zimmer will be casted in the upcoming Season 3 of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to lead a dubious group of government agents that will hunt the Inhumans, directly clashing with the S.H.I.E.L.D's agents.

Zimmer, known for her roles in Entourage, House of Cards and UnREAL, will play as a major antagonist of the next season and will see her with several confrontations with Director Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg). She will be seen in the season opening episode, the report said.

To recall, the season ending episode of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. showed of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents fighting a group of Inhumans led by Jiaying Grant Ward (Brett Dalton) leading Hydra's remaining members.

In the next season, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents will be facing not only the Inhumans but Zimmer's team as well. It is not yet known what Zimmer's character name in the next season.

Executive Producer and Marvel Television Head, Jeph Loeb, commented on Zimmer's character, "When casting this role, we needed someone that could go toe-to-toe with Coulson. Constance brings a level of wit and spark to the role we could have only dreamed of, and we're beyond excited to add her to our already stellar cast going into the new season."

However, Zimmer will not be the only new villain to be introduced in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. new season. Aside from the usual Inhumans and Secret Warriors anti-hero, another Inhuman character named Lash, was introduced during the latest Comic-Con.

At the San Diego Comic-Con, Chloe Bennet, who plays Skye, said she will be using her birth name, Daisy Johnson (a.k.a. Quake) in the next installment of Marvel's 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Aside from the name change, Skye will also be sporting a new Daisy's pixie hair style as she cut her long locks to make her look more like the comic book character.

The 23-year-old Bennet told People in an interview, "The comic book version of Daisy Johnson has very short, Miley Cyrus-esque hair. We wanted to stay true to the comic book character fans love; I wanted to please them but also make sure there was still some movement and length and sexiness in the hair."

She added that she should have brought a tequila while she was having her hair cut adding, "My confidence is apparently attached into my hair. It was crazy. I cried a little bit, to be honest, and definitely had some anxiety. I should have brought tequila with me. 100 percent."

Fortunately, she said she liked the outcome of her new 'do.

The new pixie hair cut is important for her new role as Daisy and Bennet explained it is important that she stays true with her character. She promised fans to expect some changes in the upcoming Season 3 of Marvel's 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
