when does agents of shield season 5 take place
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (season 5) The season was ordered in May 2017. Alongside Clark Gregg, who reprises his role as Coulson from the film series, principal cast members Ming-Na Wen, Chloe Bennet, Iain De Caestecker, Elizabeth Henstridge, and Henry Simmons return from previous seasons, while Natalia Cordova-Buckley was promoted to the principal cast after appearing in a recurring role since season three. Due to its broadcast schedule, the season was split into two "pods": the first sees the S.H.I.E.L.D. team transported to a future in which the Earth has been destroyed; in the second, they attempt to prevent this future in the present. The end of the season dovetails with events of the film Avengers: Infinity War. Gregg made his directorial debut on the series during the season, which features the series' 100th episode that was promoted with a special commemorative art program.
