AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 5 Is Reportedly Looking To Cast An Actor To Play Kree Assassin Sals-Bek

Possibly signifying that an Inhumans crossover is on the horizon, a new report reckons Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 will introduce a Kree character named Sals-Bek, who has ties to The Royal Family...

We have already heard that an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D./Inhumans crossover is something that's more than likley being considered, and now a new report might just confirm that it is indeed in the works.

According to That Hashtag Show, the fifth season of Marvel's flagship TV series is currently in search of a stunt actor for a Kree character named Sals-Bek, who has ties to Black Bolt and co. in the comics. In the issues he's featured in, Sals-Bek was one of three Kree assassins charged with hunting down the Inhuman Royal Family before being exiled to earth.

Of course, this doesn't guarantee that a crossover will happen - but it would make sense when you take into account the direction both shows seem to be heading in.

What do you guys think? Be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 is set to premiere on December 1.

I dunno how i did it...but i just managed to watch the first 4 episodes of Inhumans back to back and i have only a couple of things to say:

@Doomsday8888 - Oh my god yes, i have so many thoughts.

Ok first off. It looks terrible. We dont need to say anything more on that, it looks bad.

Second off whats with the shitty fight scenes. I mean i was hoping for defenders quality.

What the [frick] was with the sets, looks like they were made out of cardboard. It doesent look epic or cool in anyway. Looks like it was unfinished.

Maximus doesent really seem to have any reason to fight. The chinese dude was wasted, what was gorgons super power?

The whole plot is cliche as hell. I was hoping some reason other than "we have to defend ourselves by attacking" has been done to death.

@Doomsday8888 - AND THAT WAS ALL FROM THE FIRST EPISODE. THE FIRST EPISODE I WATCHED.

I seriously don't know where do begin i mean...ppl were giving shit to AoS 5 years ago (some still do), then IF, and yes i include myself in this, although i always stated that it was not terrible, but these....Inhumans?
Some people are ok with this piece of shit show?
Like, forget how it "LOOKS" because i think we were all pretty prepared for that, it's cheap, no question about it.
But the storytelling? The acting?

The f*ck??? How the f*ck did Buck managed to make a tv serie such as IF?

I don't want to exagerate here, this is NOT the worst thing i've ever seen in my life, same thing i've read in this site which lead me to watch the show, i was kinda angry at some of you guys, but it's not your fault, it's mine.
I misunderstood, cause
"Not the worst thing ever" =/= "actually good".

I'll say this tho...If this was an '80ties show, this would be ACTUALLY really good.

@Doomsday8888 - Its just..did he spend all that money on drugs....

I noticed people on the new mutant trailers say it looks cheap.

CaptainElrond
CaptainElrond - 10/14/2017, 6:23 AM
@Doomsday8888 - But even if it was cheap. I could still accept some good storyline. Not this cliche turd we got.

Just reboot and give us the black bolt movie.

Yeah tell me about it...

Thing is, i really really like Iwan Rheon, he's a good actor, and goddammit, even he seems like a shitty ass actor!
Serinda Swan is the only one that seems...good in terms of acting, eventhough she's not better than Iwan in my book, but on this show, it's different.
When it comes to characters, i hate everyone lol, but Maximus is a likable guy all things considered.
Which is so wrong! :P
Now they've even started to add some love story (outta nowhere) with some of those characters, which feels forced as f*ck.

@Doomsday8888 -

I've only watched the first two episodes, and it pains me to say that I'm in no haste to watch the rest. The MCU completionist part of me definitely will, eventually, but I don't see it happening eny time soon. Probably before Agents of SHIELD returns in December, or during the firt couple of weeks of that month.

As for the actors, I don't really know what you guys see in Rheon. Not to hate on the actor, but his character is written as the most one-dimensional carricature of the bunch. Not really a fan of what they're doing with Karnak's perception either, and as much as I defended Medusa's wig, it looks just as PS3-era as Lockjaw. I feel like Anson Mount is being wasted there, especially with the mannerisms he's been given. His hand gestures work perfectly, but his face seems to contort to weird, almost cartoonish expressions at times.

@OedipusGrex -
lol i agree, being a nerd sometimes means being a masochist as well, and that's the only reason i'm watching this! :P

When it comes to Iwan, i mostly know him for GoT, and (as you can probably tell from my avi :p) imma big fan of that show and his character over there.
Buy here...i can barely recognize the guy...
I pity those ppl that will judge him just from this terrible show.
But as a character, eventhough he's pretty different from the comics, his storyarc isn't that bad.

Tbh, i'm finding it hard to point out the good parts for this show, i'm trying but... it ain't easy! :P

@Doomsday8888 -

Making Black Bolt a dumb fish out of water who's not familiar with how th outside world works is what makes me cringe the most. I mean, it's almost infuriating, you know? Especially when you have a guy like Anson Mount portraying a member of the f*ckin' Illuminati! I mean, come on! What the hell is this?!

Hmm i was wondering if they written this season to include to an Inhumans crossover. It seems so. I wonder if they're nervous as all hell about it now that Inhumans has not been going down well. I would be.

But tbh even if Inhumans was spectacular, i wouldn't want a SHIELD crossover. If they're crossover with anything let it be Matty Murdock! Or have Coulson cameo in DD.

CaptainElrond - 10/14/2017, 6:27 AM
@TheManWithoutFear - Unpopulor opinion. But i want it to be a small scale thing, don't announce, just coulsen comes in looking for metahumans with Jessica Jones

Same with the mcu. Daredevil is fighting some villain, someone comes down an elevator. A object spins between daredefvil and the fight, and its a shield thats very American.

Of course josh wilding and other editors would spoil that.

Regarding the latest episode of Inhumans: Can anyone tell me why Medusa and Black bolt would just leave ‘Mortis’, the so-called deadliest Inhuman alive to possibly threaten innocent lives?

They just up and leave and Black Bolt (supposedly) has the power to defeat him. But the run away and leave him alive to do what ever while he is on Earth.

Inhumans is by far the poorest written show of the superhero genre right now. It’s simply terrible.

Thank God Karnak’s weed growing girlfriend has fantastic boobs. We got to see them twice in her bra so clearly this show has run out of ideas already.

Can we just forget this crap ever happened and do this over again as a proper movie in a few years?
