AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 5 Stills Introduce New Cast & Characters, Including A NuHuman Known As Flint
The first official stills from the upcoming fifth season of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. are now online, and they introduce four of the new faces we'll be meeting when the show returns to our screens...
It was recently confirmed that The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. would be sent into space for the upcoming fifth season of Marvel's flagship TV series, but at least they'll have some company.
EW has debuted the first official promo images for the returning show, and they introduce four brand new faces, one of which - at least - is an established Marvel Comics character.
Check out the stills below along with character breakdowns.
Grill (Pruitt Taylor Vince)
Grill is a gruff taskmaster, lording over those under his command with an unforgiving temperament. He has no illusions about the world he lives in and this makes him a man not easily fooled, or crossed.
Flint (Coy Stewart)
Flint is a young man who’s been forced to grow up fast in a tough environment, but hasn’t lost his desire to make something of himself. When he crosses paths with our S.H.I.E.L.D. team, he just may get the chance to prove that he’s capable of big things. Fun fact: Flint is based on a character from Inhumans comics who has the ability to control rock and stone.
Tess (Eve Harlow)
Tess is resourceful, striving to be self-sufficient in very desperate circumstances, but she has hung on to her hopes for a better future for herself and those closest to her. She is living proof that even in the toughest of times, good people will still fight for each other.
Deke (Jeff Ward)
Deke is the ultimate survivor and roguish scavenger, the guy who can get people what they need, but at a price of his asking. With his sharp mind and quick wit, he is both a real asset in a tight spot and a hard man to trust.
There's been a lot of speculation that the team might have been abducted by S.W.O.R.D., but that still hasn't been confirmed. These characters certainly sound like they'll be living on some type of prison ship though, right?
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will return with a two-hour premiere on Friday, Dec. 1 at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.
