Bridget Regan Joins Marvel's Agent Carter

This casting announcement is coming straight out of Marvel with Bridget Regan joining the upcoming Agent Carter series on ABC. Regan will move in next door to Peggy as Dottie, a small-town girl from Iowa who’ll have a huge impact on the life of Agent Carter.

"Bridget Regan brings the nuance and complexity of Dottie to life in a way that leaves no doubt as to her importance to Peggy," said Jeph Loeb, Marvel’s Head of Television.

"Marvel's Agent Carter," starring Captain America's Hayley Atwell, follows the story of Peggy Carter. It's 1946, and peace has dealt Peggy Carter a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad.

Inspired by the feature films "Captain America: The First Avenger" and "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," along with the short "Marvel One-Shot: Agent Carter."
