The MCU is and always will be comprised of all the films …. for the last 7 years she’s been played by Chloe and when she shows up in the films or other tv shows. Added Bell: “The chemistry was even more than we’d hoped.” “They were a very unlikely match, but we knew that it would work,” said Tancharoen. But he’s so solid and so confident in liking strong women and all that, it just felt great. “She’s always calling him a dork and just kind of laughing at him. The trick was “finding the angle, because they don’t, on paper, seem compatible,” Whedon observed. “Enver’s great, he could do anything,” Whedon noted, “so was one of those things that we had hopes for, but only when he came on did we kind of cement that idea and run with it.”

Whedon and Tancharoen of course had worked with Gjokaj before, as writers/story editors for Fox’s Dollhouse, so they knew that he could rise to any occasion. “Seeing them on-screen and seeing them play, we were pretty confident that it would work.” “We were hopeful that would have chemistry, and we felt like we could write Sousa into a place, and her into a place, that felt like it would be organic to them,” he continued. “But one of the good things about TV is you can make decisions as you move.

“We instantly fell in love with the concept during the season of bringing him in and letting him play with us for a little bit,” Whedon recalled. That happy ending was something the producers could only hope for. When all was said and done, Sousa not only stuck around for 10 of the farewell run’s 13 episodes, he also wound up Zephyring off into the sunset with the formidable Daisy Johnson aka Quake (played by original cast member Chloe Bennet).
