Marvel's Cinematic Universe continues to expand, not only in cinemas, but in television as well.

Though previous promos showed Agent Carter at work, this time, ABC has released its latest promo for "Agent Carter" and it features Atwell's character as she deals with sexism in the work place and while undercover.
In the promo, Agent Carter steps out of the elevator, and her boss could be heard saying, "Agent Carter, all hands on deck." Later, a man looks lasciviously at her while saying, "I didn't know our government had such good taste in secretaries. What's your name darling?" She replies, "Agent."
