| His Name is Agent |
Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) didn't die in the movie, in my opinion he lived. So it doesnt suprise me in the slightest that Marvel announced him for the cast of the S.H.I.E.L.D. live action tv show their producing.
Here's my hypothesis to back up my argument: Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) realized that the cards Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) pulled out in the speech/debrief after Loki (Tom Hiddleston) was rescued/freed by his minions weren't in Agent Coulsons pocket at the time when he was attacked (they had been in his locker), to which Nick Fury says "They needed the push".
So in my opinion what happened was Loki's spear missed Agent Coulson's important organs, he was still injured and probably thought he was going to die so due to this and his bloodloss he passed out (or fainted which is common in people who have serious injurys, especially once the adrenaline is gone), and then Nick Fury made up this story as an oppurtunity to unite the team, going so far as to retrieve the cards from Agent Coulson's locker and smear them with blood (pretty manipulative eh?).
My next point is the golden rule in action films and horror films for that matter, if you dont see the body they aren't dead. Now I know Joss Whedon has a habit of killing characters to create tension (I mean look at Buffy by my count she's died and been raised/reborn at least 3 times (which isn't alot compared to Sam & Dean in Supernatural but i digress)), however I doubt Marvel would allow their most popular and competely orginal character to be killed off. But that's just my opinion.
And incase you cant tell I love what Marvel have done in creating their own Marvel Cinematic Universe, it was a big risk and I honestly thought it couldn't be done, but it has been done and it's exceeded my wildest expectations.
