The events of Avengers: Infinity War will open storytelling opportunities for Agents of SHIELD and showrunner Jed Whedon is very excited about it.
One of the biggest unresolved plotlines in the MCU is the Avengers still believing that Agent Phil Coulson was killed by Loki during The Avengers in 2012.
Considering Agents of SHIELD‘s play on the timeline, it’s possible that folks behind the series can work their way around the matter.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 continues Friday, March 30th with ‘Rise and Shine’ at 9pm on ABC.
