Jason O'Mara Cast in Agents of SHIELD

ABC and Marvel have cast Jason O'Mara (Complications, The Good Wife) in Agents of SHIELD as the new director. They have not revealed the actual name of his character. Personally, I was hoping May or Hill would be the new director. Jeph Loeb commented

Bringing Jason into the mix as the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D. forces everyone, particularly Coulson, to reevaluate their role in the agency. Jason has both the physical presence and acting dynamics that will connect with and challenge even the most loyal agent.
