Speaking to IGN about the ABC show's return, Gregg said that he is eager to explore the science fiction element to the Inhumans.
"It's just a part of the world that I really love," he explained. "I always clicked the most with the stuff that feels the most… all my favourite sci-fi, all my favourite comics, they were always about stuff that felt like a way you could look at stuff that was too hard to look at in real life."
He continued: "There's a way that stuff like the Inhumans… Whether it's in X-Men or whether it's Inhumans, they always represented people who evolved in a different way where some of them were outcasts or treated like something was wrong with them and yet, perhaps, in many ways represented a vital new part of what we're supposed to be.
"You can't read the news or watch society change without seeing fertile ways that that represents who we are. All the ways that you watch the headlines, and people are part of super secret organisations slaughtering people on the street."
The actor went on to say: "It makes the kind of fight to protect us from them something that's not just a fantasy comic world but connects to real life. Inhumans are a really important part of that for me. I'm really excited to see how they use that part of it on our show. It's one of the things that's fun about being on this show.
"When you understand what it is, you see Winter Solider and it's 'Agents of Nothing'. Right when you think you know what that is, there's the attack at the end of the season and he can't stop carving [symbols]. It keeps adding new elements to it.
"That said, we're at 9pm, with a darker tone - less ICERS, more bullets. I think it's finding its way to be more and more; its own central self that can withstand having things brought into it."
The Tomorrow People's Luke Mitchell is soon joining the series as the Inhuman known as Lincoln.
Marvel's Agents of SHIELD returns tonight (March 3) at 8pm ET on ABC. Channel 4 airs the series in the UK.
