The SSR agent will head to Los Angeles this winter, but the City of Angeles is no safer than the Big Apple. First up, there is Madam Masque (Wynn Everett). Now, Marvel has announced that Joseph Manfredi (Ken Marino) will enter the mix as well.

Described as a "volatile leader in the Maggia crime syndicate," Manfredi will aid Peggy's (Hayley Atwell) season 2 nemeses. While he clearly has a temper, the mobster will be as charismatic as he is violent.

"At Marvel, even our villains need a certain degree of charm as they make life difficult for our heroes," executive producer Jeph Loeb told Variety. "Ken brings a quality to Joseph Manfredi that only serves to make him even more menacing, adding another layer of depth to our already outstanding supporting cast."

Marino will join fellow newbies Lotte Verbeek (Ana Jarvis) and Currie Graham (Calvin Chadwick). Returning for their second year will be James D'Arcy (Jarvis), Dominc Cooper (Howard Stark), Bridget Regan (Dottie Underwood), Chad Michael Murray (Jack Thompson), and Enver Gjokaj (Daniel Sousa).
