Most will live, but at least one will die on the season finale of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Marvel released a series of videos teasing a major character death on the series. Almost every character on the series has an R.I.P. video, but one character seems safe, at least so far: Leo Fitz. Considering that he's finally romanced Agent Simmons, the most dramatic death would probably be hers, but here's hoping that it's not: those two deserve a break.
So for the record, here is the list of character R.I.P. videos Marvel released: Phil Coulson (would Marvel really kill off another S.H.I.E.L.D. director?), Alphonso "Mac" Mackenzie, Yo-Yo Rodriguez, Joey Gutierrez, Lincoln Campbell, Melinda May, Jemma Simmons and Daisy Johnson.
So who will it be? The newest members of the team are Yo-Yo and Joey, so that puts them at the top of the odds to kick it, but for pure dramatic effect, one of the other characters could see their end. Or maybe it's none of the above and the death is for ex-agent Grant Ward, who is now Hive, the big bad villain of the season.
Here are the videos released by Marvel to tease the season finale:
If Hive does meet his end, the actor behind him, Brett Dalton, believes that Daisy will prove his downfall. Not only did she escape from Hive's influence, but now she's back with S.H.I.E.L.D. and she knows many of his secrets.
"It's kind of a like a prisoner that's escaped from the jail," Dalton said to Entertainment Tonight. "I've shared so many things with her and now she has escaped and is seemingly no longer under my control. So, that's a fly in the ointment, but hopefully it won't come back to haunt me."
The final episode of the season will also see the planet of Maveth returning to the screen. Although there's no word on how S.H.I.E.L.D. gets there, it's bound to play a large part in how the team will learn more about Hive, especially since that's where he originated.
The 2-hour season finale of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs at 9 p.m. EDT on May 17 on ABC.
