Of all the Marvel characters in all the Marvel movies in all the Marvel universes, who would you most love to pop up in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

three letters. RDJ

Hey Chloe,

So I was browsing music videos when I stumbled upon your Chinese music video. So I must ask, what do you prefer more, acting or singing? In addition what are your opinions on the show Arrow?

Edit: Uh Oh

First off... I apologize and I feel like I owe you 3 minutes and 56 seconds of your life back...after watching that terrible video! hah I much prefer acting

What's the most awkward moment growing up with six brothers?

Iv walked in on way to many people having "alone time " then any girl should ever have to experience in one lifetime.

Why reddit?

I love cats.

Well you've certainly come to the right place. What are your views on bacon?

I ate bacon 2 hours ago. And I don't regret a thing.

Hey Chloe! Love the show. According to IMDB, you studied Mandarin. Have you ever used this "super power" to overhear someone talking about you and throw it back in their face?

a few guys in the airport were talking about me in mandarin saying that they should not stand behind in the security line because they thought I would take long...so I took my sweet time just to annoy them!

Do you ever speak Mandarin to Ming-Na?

We do! On set we talk about people in front of them, and we pretend like were saying nasty things but really we just compliment them. Its good fun

What do you think of Skimmons?

I SHIP THAT SHIT SO HARD.

What was the first day on set like?

Btw, your twitter photo is probably the greatest picture of all time.

I was shitting my pants I was so nervous

and thank you. I like cheesburgers

Hi Chloe. What is your relationship with your cast mates on S.H.I.E.L.D? and do any of the actors of SHIELD's personalities resemble their characters?

Everyone on the show is pretty similar to their characters... the only one who is absolutely not like their character is Ming Na Wen... shes A huge jokester and prankster and is alwaysssss laughing.

Are we cool?

i dont know steve... are we?

If a genie granted you 3 wishes, what would they be?

NOTE: You may not wish for unlimited wishes or the ability to wish for unlimited wishes or any other crafty bullshit.

I would wish for: 1. The ability to never have to sit in traffic. 2. Eat as many donuts as I want.. and it all just went to my boobs. 3. I want to be able to understand a football game.

Hi Chloe. How are you with technology in real life?

Im actually terrible it just took me about 20 minutes to set this AMA up!

If you could play any other character in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, even a man, anyone at all, who would you chose?

thats a good question. I would want to play Captain America---because how kind of weird would it be if captain america was a half chinese 21 year old lady who kind of also looks mexican

What's the most embarrassing thing that has happened on set, to either yourself or any of the other actors/actresses?

EDIT: Question from my mom: Who is your favourite super hero?

Please give you're mom a huge hug for me. she sounds adorable.... for her question.. my favorite is Jean grey. And I embarrass myself by tripping on an hourly basis.

Batman or Iron Man?

EDIT: Nevermind I just realized your probably contractually obligated to say the latter.

smart man. you know better.

Have you sat behind the wheel of Lola?

I have actually DRIVEN lola in real life...which is funny because im a terrible driver.

Could you tell us about meeting The Great and Powerful Joss for the first time?

The first time I met joss...I was late to the meeting because I had gotten pulled over by the cops for speeding. I think I was also a bit sweaty. hah so. yeah I think it went pretty well

1. Will Skye ever show up in one of the Marvel movies?
2. Which one would you most like to appear in?

I work for Marvel who are the real life SHIELD so you know I cant tell you super top secrets like that!

Favorite quote from Agents of SHIELD?

"with great power comes... a ton of weird crap that you are not prepared to deal with."

Hey Chloe, so I have three questions for you:

• Did you read/watch/follow the Marvel universe as a child?
• What's your favourite quality in your character Skye?
• What similarities and differences are there between you and Skye?

Thanks for Redditing with us Redditors and can't wait to see the next episode of Agents of SHIELD

okay 1. yes loved/love marvel. 2. Her drive. 3. Im shit with computers, she way cooler and smarter then me. She also wears much more flannel then I do.

I'm early to the AMA, I have a chance to ask a great question!

So, uh, umm... What's your favourite colour?

I DONT HAVE ONE. THERE ARE SO MANY GOOD ONES HOW CAN I JUST CHOOSE ONE? WHY AM I ANSWERING IN ALL CAPS? I DONT EVEN KNOW

How do you feel about having your own subreddit? And do you check it out often? lol

I didn't know I had one...

Hi Chloe! This past week’s episode had a couple pranks featured in it, but do any pranks happen on set? Who’s usually the one plotting them?

We actually have a prank war going on between Brett and Iain (Agent Ward and Fitz) and me and Elizabeth. I just pranked Iain last wednesday, I told him we had a sex scene in the next episode!

Chloe! you think any firefly characters will guest star?

I hope nathan does a cameo

Chloe, do u ever see Skye getting to meet Nick Fury?

well shit, I hope so.. I love Sam Jackson

Hello Chloe! How are you?

Im so full from thanksgiving I cant move... I think I may have eaten a whole pie myself... how are you??

what's one thing you miss about Chicago that you can't get in LA?

Normal people who arent fame-whore-y....and the pizza. :)

I know that you have been called "Sparkles", but have you ever met Cobie Smulders?

I have, she is quite lovely.

Dude you're the shit!! :D

dude! You're the shit!

Is Skye ever going to get to show off all the fighting skills she's learned from Agent Ward?

Maybeeeeeee you will have to wait and see :)

What do you think about doing an AMA with Reddit? Was it something that was suggested to you by PR people or is it something you suggested? I am curious how people that do AMA's view the process.

I love reddit. So i suggested it.

If you weren't an agent of SHIELD, what superhero would you want to be?

my favorite marvel character is JEAN Grey... so her edit: thats awkward I spelled my favorite super heroes name wrong...

Skyeward or Mayward?

SKYEWARD

Can you ask Ian to use his twitter account because I have a little crush on him...

I have a crush on him to. So im going to be selfish and say...no... just kidding yes I will

What do you and the cast do in all the spare time you have on set?

We eat MnM's and make fun of eachother

Which scene did you do for the audition?

I had three scenes. One was the scene from the pilot with me and mike in the diner. And the others were made up

what was the weirdest thing a fan has ever said to you?

They asked me to sign their babys forehead..

Who is your favorite character in the show? :3

I really would not be able to choose. I really love FitzSimmons though. They are perfect humans

Which Hogwarts house do you think you would be sorted into? And which one would Skye be in?

I would hope for Gryffindor...but id probably end up in something like Hufflepuff or something. Cause no one wants Hufflepuff..

Tequila?

yes.

Hi, Chloe! Love the show! I have to know one thing, though. Is there a shower on the Bus? And if not, how do the agents look so good all the time?

(Okay, two things. Cubs or White Sox?)

You know what... I ASSUME there is a shower on the bus. but honestly I have not yet seen it with my own eyes. (Yes. You're thinking correctly.. I have not showered since I began shooting) and SOX. I enjoy watching real baseball ;)

Hi Chloe, can you settle an argument for us? Is it Skye screaming in the promo for 1x10 or someone else?

skye is.

Is there ant scene in SHIELD in which anyone from the cast actually did improv and the take made it to the final cut? :)

Iain did improv at the "HUB" episode when he was trying to get through the glass doors. funniest shit ever.

DO you have any idea how much Brazil loves you????

I DONT HAVE ANY IDEA?!

Hi Chloe. Thank you for doing this. I like you and Skye so much. What ir your favorite moment of the Show? What do you think about the relation between Skye and Simmons? And about Skye and May? What was the hardest scene to do in your opinion? And the most funny?

The hardest scenes for me are when we all decide to act like children and goof off.... Clark often likes to start rapping the dialogue..so then we all start rapping and then laughing and most times we cant stop! Thats the most difficult AND funny. And my favorite relationship on the show is that of Skye and Coulson...I just think its a really sweet and endearing make shift father daughter relationship.

If AoS had a proper theme song, what other theme song would you want it to be most like?

I would just want the Fresh Prince of Bell Air theme song..

Now this is a tv show all about how / I work for the super secret good guys now / And I'd like to take a minute, all will be revealed / I'd like to tell you how I became an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. /

Grew up as an orphan, born and raised. / Hacking databases was how I spent most of my days. / Rising Tide missions, taking stuff from the man, / And distributing it out from my unsuspecting van. /

When this superstong guy who was up to some good, / Got S.H.I.E.L.D. agents all up in my neighborhood. / They interrogated me and I got real scared and said / "I'm moving in with Coulson to a Bus in the air." /

I joined up with S.H.I.E.L.D. and I met Ward and May / They were kinda jerks to me but I was spying, so hey. / Fitz and Simmons were nicer but their accents were rough. / So I thought nah, forget it, I'm still gonna hack stuff. /

I pulled up to the HUB around seven or eight-er / I almost learned my parent's secrets but Hey, maybe later. / Until Coulson's real Tahiti trip's no longer concealed / I'll just hang on the Bus as an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. /

shameless plug - my podcast Mad Bracket Status

thats actually amazing.

Hi Chloe!

How similar are you and Skye? What's the funniest thing that's happened on set?

Thanks for doing this AMA! Love the show!

Well me and skye definitely look a lot alike.... What we do not have in common is that Im actually quite shit with computers! And the last episode was really fun to shoot because the scene where the mop falls down out of the closet we were all laughing so hard while shooting we had to take a 15 minute break from each other...

Hi Chloe! Thanks for doing this :) Ok, so here's my question: Going into this project were you aware of the Whedon fan-base coming from past Whedon works like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, and Dollhouse? Also, what's your opinion on hula hoops? yea or nay?

well my edgerunner friend. You should know. I have a sparkly purple and pink hula hoop in my trailer that I play with on set. So that being said. Im quite fond.

If you could have your character appear in a crossover with any show on tv right now, what would it be?

I think it would be funny if I did a crossover on NCIS. I would steal their viewers and then bring them back to my show.

Hey Chloe! Who's winning the prank war on set now?

The girls are for sure... but I may be biased.

After seeing you in S.H.I.E.L.D, honestly thought you're one of the best on there, as intended I'm guessing. You're also gorgeous.

But after reading your replies, I just gotta say you seem hella cool and down to earth. Hope Hollywood doesn't change that!

Enjoy the fame and all the best in your career pursuits!

Thank you... I really appreciate that! At the end of the day... All I do is play dress up for a living. I cant take myself to seriously.

Do you know when we'll find out who Skye's parents are?

you know i cant tell you that :)

If you have as much charisma in the show as you do in life, then i will be looking forward to you on the big screen one day!

Thanks! To make things move quicker you could just buy a really large tv.

If you could change on thing about The Bus, what would it be?

I would add a bathroom. Just for starters.

can you eat 3 whole can of beans?

I have never tried... sounds tempting

If you were forced to share an apartment with one superhero in real life, who would be the most helpful with chores, cooking, cleaning, etc.?

Iron man hands down. He has the nicest house.

Who's your Favorite Pokemon ?

Ninetails

Hey Chloe, i was just wondering..... how tall are you?

5'6 with good posture

Clark Gregg. Awesome or extremely awesome?

double extremely awesome

Hi Chloe. I enjoy your show and I'm really digging your AMA. You are obviously angling to be the next Goddess of Reddit, and I support your candidacy.

Well shit. Thank you, I will never be more impressive then a Norwall. So I will never truly be a reddit goddess.

Favorite Marvel super hero. GO!

Im so distracted by your user name I cant respond to you're question. SIX steamy hippos? why six?

I'm having my wedding in Chicago. Will you be coming and should I put you down for a plus one?

first, CONGRATS. second. yes I will be bringing all 6 of my brothers. so prepared for all your food to be gone

How old is Skye supposed to be on the show? Your age? Younger? Older?

Actually I have no idea..

What sport would you be most apt to try if offered a professional contract to all of them? :)

I kinda want to be really good at an incredibly random sport. Like the sport during the winter olympics where they just sweep ice around or something. What is that called?

Hello Chloe, thanks for doing this! I'm going to be greedy and ask you 3 questions but they're all similarly themed, so forgive me :)

1.What's the last album you listened to?

2.What's your favourite song/band of ever?

3.Will there be a musical episode/ would you like there to be one? (a la:Buffy's 'Once More, with Feeling')

The last album I downloaded was A band called "The Wild Feathers" I could never choose a favorite band there are way to many I love I would mostly love to do a musical episode just so I could see Clark rap

Chloe, say something random.

snuggies are just backwards robes.

Can you tell me a story of when you were a child?

I once crazy glued my arm to my friends arm so we could have a sleep over.

Quick plot summary for anyone that doesn't watch the show.

A show about a world full of superheroes seen through the eyes of ordinary people. And its a Joss Whedon show. So hes awesome.

I want to hug you so bad

DO IT. cyber hug

We Skyeward shippers have declared you the captain of our ship. I hope you're up for it :)

IM THE CAPTAIN?! well shit. thats exciting. im so game.

Hello Chloe! Love the show and your twitter feed. What's your favorite sports team? Do you have any say in what you wear on the show? I somehow imagine you walking around in the same look as Skye or Chloe. Dat red dress doe http://imgur.com/eMAhm9u

I do have a say.. I actually have a lot of the same clothes...Including the exact Leather Jacket! and Im glad you like my twitter feed!

I just found out you were the chick in that Big Bang video. Is TOP as dreamy IRL as I imagine?

yes... yes he is.

Okay so before I ask my question, I just want to say you’re so unique because you have this non celebrity vibe to you and I feel like that’s what makes you such an amazing and natural actress, which is why the fans of the show have really taken a liking to not only your character but your real life personality as well, so please don’t ever lose that by going all “Hollywood” on us hah! And with that being said, my question is... What does Chloe Wang really look for in a guy?

Well thanks! I think I have my brothers to thank for that. They basically just love to continuously remind me that I am and will forever be a huge loser. And what do I look for in a guy? haha uhmm. They have to be funny.

Hey Chloe! I'm a big fan, love you in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.! If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

I would be able to teleport myself to anywhere... I actually contemplate having that power allll the time. Maybe someday if I think about it enough I will magically get it..

Hi Chloe! 2 questions, What do you think Marvel did right that led to its bigger success compared to DC and who's your favourite character from each side?

Marvels characters have always been more relatable. And marvel brings a unique sense of humor into everything that they do.

Are you a feminist? Joss Whedon is known for his strong female characters on television. How do you feel playing your role from a gender-critical standpoint?

I dont think it should be such a huge deal that their are strong female characters on shows or in the media. I grew up with a working mother who was a doctor. And I was raised with the mindset that woman can do anything men do. You dont see the media talking about "strong male characters" why do we continue to act like its rare that women can be strong, confident, and in control?? Its not.

Hi Chloe! Huge fan of SHIELD here :D Read that you've moved to Beijing for a while to pursue a music career. I currently live in China and was just wondering, what did you think of China?

I loved China, I lived in Beijing and Shanghai... I will actually be going back next year for a few things. I cant wait.

If your boogers would taste like your favorite food, would you eat them in public?

What kind of question is that?!!!....................absolutely.

This might be a bit cheesy, but I just wanted to thank you for being you :) Like, the other day I was having a rough day, and I came home to that video of you dancing around Brett, having the time of your life, and it just made my day a lot better. So, thank you. I love you <3

Aw thank you. That is cheesy but very sweet. I appreciate that. If you are having a bad day just force yourself to dance. It always works.

two questions of varying importance: The REALLY important one- Lou Malnati's, Giordano's, or Gino's East?

The "less important" one- How familiar were you with the Marvel universe before auditioning for AoS and how much research (comics, movies, novels, etc.) did you do after getting the part?

one: Lous Malnati's----DUH.

two: growing up with 6 brothers... I really didn't watch any disney princess movies or anything like that. I was all sports and comics. So I was pretty familiar... Getting to work for marvel now is a fucking dream. Most girls wanted to be princesses I just wanted to kick ass.

What are your favorite 'hidden' places to eat at in Chicago? (minus Gold Coast/River North/anythingthatexpensive kind of places) Or just favorite hidden spots in Chicago in general?

My dads house. He just cooked his face off for thanksgiving..

what you most enjoy doing with your brothers? I LOVE YOU

My brothers all love reddit.. so we are all sitting here on reddit together.. but they actually just got bored so they are now playing xbox

Does Bretty make a lot of puns on set?

He does... ha
