Maria Hill is ready to reveal some secrets. Cobie Smulders appeared in Hall H for an exclusive look at new footage from the film, for Comic-Con attendees only.
Fans saw glimpses of Nick Fury emerging from the darkness in a heavily wooded area. Also in this preview? Colonel James Rupert "Rhodey" Rhodes.
Creator: Kyle Bradstreet
Stars: Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Emilia Clarke
“As Kevin was saying, this is a darker show. It's going to be a gripping thriller. You will never know who people are: if they are Skrull or if they are human," Smulders said. Earlier in the Hall H presentation, Marvel Studio Chief revealed that 'Secret Invasion' would be released in Spring 2023.
Samuel L. Jackson will return as Nick Fury, while Ben Mendelsohn will reprise his "Captain Marvel" role as Skrull Talos. Cobie Smulders, Kingsley Ben-Adir and Olivia Colman also star in the Marvel series. Kyle Bradstreet will serve as executive producer and writer, and Marvel Studios will produce.
Secret Invasion is a 2008 comic book crossover centered on a Skrull invasion of Earth. But as the title suggests, humanity isn't even aware of this invasion until it's too late. As readers learned in the lengthy build-up to Secret Invasion, shapeshifting Skrulls have spent years kidnapping and replacing powerful heroes and politicians, all to help pave the way for a global conquest. With their own world destroyed by Galactus, the Skrulls see Earth as their rightful new home.
When that takeover finally happens, Earth's heroes are not prepared to fight back. S.H.I.E.L.D. is immediately taken down and the Avengers struggle to figure out which of them is human and which is a Skrull imposter.
Eventually, the Avengers are able to repel the Skrull invasion, but not without heavy cost. Like Civil War before it, the fallout from Secret Invasion ended up shaping the course of the Marvel Universe for years to come.
The series revolves around Fury and Talos, who was first introduced in the MCU feature "Captain Marvel," and a group of shape-shifting aliens known as Skrulls. In a post-credits scene of "Spider-Man: Far From Home," it is revealed that Fury and his fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Maria Hill was impersonated by Skrulls throughout the film. The real Nick Fury is then shown aboard a Skrull ship, implying his current association with the alien race. According to sources, Ben-Adir will be playing a main villain on the show.
“Secret Invasion” was revealed to be in development in September 2020, as reported exclusively by Variety. Disney confirmed the news about the original series in December of that year, as well as several other titles planned by Marvel Studios for Disney Plus. “She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” will premiere on August 17 on Disney Plus, along with “I Am Groot” on August 10 and a “Guardians of the Galaxy” holiday special that will premiere on the streamer at the end of this year.
“Secret Invasion” will stream on Disney+ in Spring 2023.
