The preview sees Agent Carter travel to Hollywood for action, romance and adventure. Devious Maids actor Reggie Miller appears as Jason Wilkes, Peggy's potential new love interest.

Chad Michael Murray will also return as Agent Jack Thompson, with Wynn Everett as Whitney Frost, aka Madam Masque, Currie Graham as Calvin Chadwick, Frost's husband, and Ken Marino as Joseph Manfredi, aka Blackwing.

Agent Carter premiered on ABC in January, and will return for a second season Jan. 5, 2016. The new season will follow the titular secret agent as she deals with atomic threats following WWII. Atwell also portrays the character in the Marvel cinematic universe.

"We're very much being inspired by noir films," executive producer Michele Fazekas told Entertainment Weekly in July. "We keep talking about LA Confidential and Chinatown ... [where] you're investigating one seemingly isolated crime, and it unveils a huge web of conspiracy."
