Captain America (season 5)

The fifth season of the American television series Captain America premiered on ABC on September 25, 2016, and concluded on May 7, 2017, with a total of 22 episodes. The series is based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, a costumed crime-fighter created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, and is set in the Marvel Television Universe, sharing continuity with other MTU television series. Justin Hartley stars as Steve Rogers, with principal cast members Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, Mike Vogel as Clint Barton, Adrianne Palicki as Bobbi Morse, Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson, Chloe Bennet as Daisy Johnson, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes, Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff, Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, and Andre Braugher as Nick Fury also returning from previous seasons. They are joined by new cast members Frank Grillo and Katrina Law.

The series follows Steve Rogers, a super-soldier from World War II who was frozen in time for nearly 70 years, before being retrieved by S.H.I.E.L.D., where he leads a team of agents and other superheroes, while he struggles to fit into the 21st century lifestyle. In the fifth season, Steve and the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. are forced to take on the new iteration of Hydra, this time led by Ophelia Sarkissian, better known by her codename Viper. When the Superhuman Registration Act is ratified, this threatens to not only split the team, but split up all of Steve's allies, especially Iron Man. This leads to numerous S.H.I.E.L.D. agents being named criminals.

The series was renewed for its fifth season on March 3, 2016, and filming began in Los Angeles, California on July 13, 2016, and ended in March 2017. The season received positive reviews from critics who viewed it as an improvement over the third and fourth seasons. The political commentary and themes throughout were especially praised. This season includes the fifth annual Marvel Television Universe crossover with TV series Iron Man and Spider-Man. The series was renewed for a sixth season on December 14, 2016.
