Well this came a little out of no where, but Chloe Bennett, who plays Skye on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. seemed to unknowingly reveal the race of the blue alien we saw in the episode T.A.H.I.TI.I. as Kree. While it was suspected that this could be the case due to similarities with Ronan in the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy, this is the first form of any confirmation we’ve received.
The reveal came during a quick interview by Fanboy Comics at PaleyFest 2014. In the video below, Chloe speaks some about her character and her development, and refers to the blue alien as a Kree “which we all know, as they say it”. So it seems like she’s confused with what episode we’re up to in the seasons (can’t blame her there with all the breaks) and that it sounds like we’ll get confirmation on the show itself at some point, that the blue alien was in fact Kree.
You can check out the video below to hear Chloe talk about Skye. If you just want to hear the Kree portion, fast forward to the 1:30 mark.
“It’s not a Frost Giant. We had to talk with the Marvel Studio because they’ve got aliens coming up in some of their movies, so we had to make sure that we fit within that, and we wanted to do it in a limited way. We’re not saying there are these people running around on the planet. There’s this thing that could’ve been there for thousands of years that they found.”
