The fifth season of the NBC American supernatural drama series Grimm was announced on February 5, 2015. It premiered on October 30, 2015 and concluded on May 20, 2016. The season consisted of 22 episodes. The series was created by David Greenwalt, Jim Kouf and Stephen Carpenter, and produced by NBC, GK Productions, Hazy Mills Productions, and Universal Television. It follows a descendant of the Grimm line, Nick Burkhardt, as he deals with being a cop, and trying not to expose his secret as a Grimm.
Rodriguez returned as Chavez in the episode "The Grimm Identity", as she revealed on her instagram account. In late August, Carlson Young was cast as Selina Golias, a character forced to hide the survivor of an attack that resulted in her boyfriend's death, resulting in Selina becoming the target of a Wesen "Rat King" who doesn't mind if she becomes collateral damage in a never-ending Wesen feud. In early September, Madeline Brewer was cast as Billie Trump for episodes 6 and 7 of the season. Billie is a Skalengeck described as "a fierce lieutenant in an up-and-coming Wesen street gang who is raising hell in Portland." It was announced in November that Bailey Chase had been cast as Lucien Petrovich, "the leader of a Wesen revolutionary group." The news was broken by Deadline.
Like the previous four seasons, the majority of filming takes place in the Portland, Oregon area. Filming for the season began on July 7, 2015.
After airing the last 9 episodes of the previous season on Fridays at 8 p.m., the show moved back to its normal time slot of Fridays at 9 p.m.
Trubel, Juliette, and the severed head of Nick's mother, Kelly, are hustled out of Nick's house by unknown assailants. Chavez and Nick meet at an arranged time in a vacant warehouse; Chavez's mysterious caller is Meisner, who with the aid of the Resistance helped Adalind escape from the Royals. Nick and Chavez are attacked by a group of Wesen and Chavez is killed. Before she dies, Chavez gives Trubel's dark knight chess piece to Nick. Nick answers Agent Chavez's phone and speaks to Meisner, who tells Nick to keep the phone. Nick goes to the hospital to visit Adalind and their newborn son; Adalind names the child Kelly, after Nick's mother.
