‘Agents of SHIELD’ season 5 details, adds Jeff Ward, Eve Harlow, Coy Stewart and Pruitt Taylor Vince
Details about Season 5 of ABC’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. are finally being released.
Marvel.com on Thursday released the first photos of four new characters that will figure into the new, outer space storyline: Deke (Jeff Ward), Tess (Eve Harlow), Flint (Coy Stewart) and Grill (Pruitt Taylor Vince)
Season four ended as Agent Coulson and the team saved the world with help of Ghost Rider. In a rare moment of celebration, the team’s night off was interrupted by a mysterious man and an elite squad. The next thing we saw was Coulson on board a ship… in deep space!
New to the Season 5 scene are as follows:
Jeff Ward (Channel Zero) is playing Deke, “the ultimate survivor and roguish scavenger, the guy who can get people what they need, but at a price of his asking.” He is is described as “both a real asset … and a hard man to trust.”
Eve Harlow (The 100) is playing Tess, a resourceful young woman striving to be self-sufficient in very desperate circumstances — and thus far “has hung on to her hopes for a better future for herself and those closest to her.”
Pruitt Taylor Vince (The Mentalist) is playing Grill, a “gruff taskmaster” who lords over those under his command with an unforgiving temperament. He is not easily fooled, nor crossed.
Coy Stewart (Nickelodeon’s Bella and the Bulldogs) is playing Flint, a young man who, when he crosses paths with the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, may get the chance to prove that he’s capable of big things.
“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” returns for its fifth exciting season with a special two-hour premiere, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1 (8:00-10:00 p.m., EST), on the ABC Television Network.
