'Agents Of SHIELD' Season 2: How Is Ming-Na Wen Similar To Agent May? Actress Dishes On The Calvary [VIDEO]
Agents of SHIELD's Melinda May is perhaps the polar opposite of actress Ming-Na Wen, except for one particular aspect.

Wen can take down her enemies nearly as well as the Calvery herself.
"Whenever somebody asks me what form I studied, I say 'the acting form. It's very, very popular in Hollywood.'" Wen said at Sydney's Supernova 2014, according to Capsule Computers. "I think the training that I've had with dance, as well as with Tae Kwan Do, the Tiger Claw Kung-Fu method and a little bit of Wu-Shu - which, I don't think you can actually do just a little bit of Wu-Shu, but in my world, yes - really helps me prepare for these kinds of roles."
However, May and Wen's similarities stop there. While May has more of a stoic, taciturn personality, Wen is generally the opposite.
"It's just fantastic because in reality I am completely the antithesis of Agent May," Wen told CCTV. "I am so opposite from her. I smile all the time, laugh all the time. I'm goofy, I'm geeky, and she's none of those things. So its fantastic to just be able to go into this being that is so silent and strong, an she gets to play with really cool toys."
