Marvel has given us our first look at Lucy Lawless' character in the upcoming season two of Agents of SHIELD. Lawless will be playing Isabelle Hartley in the show. The character is described as a "long time agent of SHIELD who always has a knife by her side."
"She's a SHIELD agent, longtime SHIELD agent, so she has a history with Coulson," said S.H.I.E.L.D. co-creator Maurissa Tancheon while promoting Season 2 of the series at San Diego Comic-Con. "She's great, she's badass, she's everything that we love about Lucy Lawless. We've been huge fans of hers and we worked with her on 'Spartacus,' so we're just thrilled that she's joining us."

It is currently unknown which side she will be on, SHIELD or HYDRA, as last season saw most of SHIELD agents being undercover HYDRA agents instead.

It will be interesting to see where the show picks up at in season two, as by the ending of season one the old SHIELD had pretty much disbanded, and left Coulson as the Director of the new SHIELD.
Marvel's Agents of SHIELD will return this fall on September 23rd on ABC, and will be aired continuously in two blocks, with a break in between for Marvel's Agent Carter series.
