John young agents of shield

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. saw the team encounter a familiar face in their current timeline.

James Garrett (played by Bill Paxton) was last seen in the ABC show in 2014 when the S.H.I.E.L.D. member turned HYDRA agent was vaporized by Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg).

The ABC show's most recent episode, however, saw a younger version of the character appear.

Bill Paxton, the actor who originally played the character in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., died in 2017, and so the show paid tribute to the Aliens actor with the actor they chose to replace him.

Who played John Garrett in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7?

In Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 7, Episode 10, John Garrett is played by James Paxton.

If that surname is familiar to you, that is because the actor is the son of former Garrett actor Bill Paxton.

Before taking on his father's role in the Marvel show, Paxton has appeared in movies like Spy Kids 3-D, Netflix's Velvet Buzzsaw, and the John Travolta movie The Fanatic.
