Season 7 (The Avengers)

The seventh season of the American television series The Avengers, based on the Marvel Comics team of the same name, follows the Avengers as they try to save humanity following the disappearance of Steve Rogers. The season is produced by ABC Studios, Marvel Television, and Mutant Enemy Productions, with Kevin Feige, Christopher Markus, and Stephen McFeely serving as showrunners.

Timothy Olyphant once again returns to star, alongside series regulars Justin Hartley, Michael C. Hall, Evangeline Lilly, Katie Cassidy, Anthony Mackie, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Damon Wayans Jr., Brie Larson, and Chadwick Boseman. They are joined by Tom Holland and Sebastian Stan, promoted from recurring roles in the sixth season. The seventh season was ordered in March 2016, and filming took place from that July until December.

The seventh season premiered on ABC on January 6, 2017, and ran for 13 episodes until March 31. It debuted to much lower ratings but stable viewership from the previous season, and remained consistent. The season received positive reviews, with praise for its plot and pacing, which critics credited to its' shorter run of episodes, in comparison to previous seasons. Critics also praised the performances and writing. In September 2016, before the season debuted, ABC renewed the series for an eighth and final season.

Finding Steve Rogers
Eight months after destroying the Kree and Skrull motherships, rogue factions are still fighting the war. Carol Danvers leads Natasha Romanoff, Sam Wilson, Bucky Barnes, and Sharon Carter in trying to find Steve Rogers, after he was replaced by a Skrull. The team of four capture a Skrull and interrogate him. They learn the Kree took many Skrull prisoners during the war, meaning Rogers may be on Hala. They set a course for Hala, until their ship is taken by a tractor beam, by Ronan the Accuser.
