I don't think Aaron Sorkin can write a character who isn't really funny.

More quotes by Clark Gregg
I'm just an actor who happened to love these [Marvel] comics when I was a kid, and got to rediscover them.
Clark Gregg
I was an 'Ironman' fan. It was in the '70s. I definitely liked comics and drew a lot of panels on my notebook when I should have been studying - probably why I ended up in the arts.
Clark Gregg
Because I'm stern and scolding [the characters] sometimes, I'm sure I'll get a ton of grief.
Clark Gregg
There's always changes in the way they do that in the cinematic universe. I think, with the S.H.I.E.L.D. 2.0, you're seeing some of the first ripples of those different points of view on what S.H.I.E.L.D. should be when it's rebuilt. I'm very, very curious to know which side Coulson will end up on in that struggle.
Clark Gregg
I think most of the actors that I know that I think are good are kind of funny people. There's just something about being alive to the truth of a moment that makes a good joke that also makes a good actor.
Clark Gregg
I had worked in this New York theatre company for my first eight or nine years out of college, acting and directing there, and I'd begun to write a little bit.
Clark Gregg
I thought there would be more time in my trailer to write during 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' but I seem to be always flying in a harness and conquering supervillains instead.
Clark Gregg
It was cool to me, as a fan of the comics, to see some of the villains that end up finding them there, and the way that they abuse Coulson before the superheroes come. I'm always, in the movies or in the animated series, getting into trouble that a superhero has to bail me out of.
Clark Gregg
Joss Whedon and all the writers of 'Iron Man' and 'Thor' found a way to keep Coulson saying something that keeps you guessing. I'm really lucky because a lot of people play agents and don't get nearly as much fun stuff to do.
Clark Gregg
I guess what we know about the Avengers is there's a reason why all of the heroes that we've been meeting, from Thor to Captain America - everybody - they need to work together.
Clark Gregg
Sometimes you can do Shakespeare and you're still not an actor.
Clark Gregg
What I think is incredible about what Marvel has done and with Jon Favreau I think really maybe helped come up with, is what the template is.
Clark Gregg
When I got the episode where Spider-Man meets Aunt May (voiced by Misty Lee), it was another one of those things where I was like, I can't believe I have a scene with Aunt May. That's just amazing to me. And they drew her a lot younger and hotter then the Aunt May that I remember.
Clark Gregg
There was a day on the set of Iron Man where I said, I remember some of this stuff. I definitely had some Iron Man books. But, S.H.I.E.L.D. is a little bit of a weak spot for me.
Clark Gregg
I'm not in Captain America because it takes place in the '40s. Both he and Bruce Banner are relationships that evolve during this - two more rock stars that I got to get on stage, ready to play ball.
Clark Gregg
All the PG-13 superhero movies are depriving me of the gore that I need.
Clark Gregg
For me, one of the really cool things about this is that throughout these movies, there have been - and I enjoyed it this way - hints at what S.H.I.E.L.D. is and how they function within this Marvel movie universe which, as you know, is deeply based in the comic books.
Clark Gregg
I'm not secretly on the board of Marvel.
Clark Gregg
I felt like people really do their best work when they're having a really good time and feel safe to push the envelope and make a jackass out of themselves.
Clark Gregg
What I love about Coulson is that he manages to do that and he manages to wrangle the diva superheroes, and really keep a sense of humor about it. And, you can tell that he really loves his job.
