We already knew that Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury would star in his own Marvel Studios series for Disney +, but I know something much bigger since it will be an adaptation of the famous Marvel comics event, Secret Invasion
Disney announced last night that a television series is in the works that will adapt the popular Marvel event, Secret Invasion for Disney + .
The MCU is rapidly expanding its reach in the streaming space, Disney +, with the announcement of new projects for the small screen reinforcing the already announced Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, and Moon Knight who were the last to join the last year, already the almost imminent Wandavision, The Falcon and the winter soldier and Loki.
Since the introduction of the Skrulls in Captain Marvel, it has been assumed that it was only a matter of time before Marvel Studios tackled the Secret Invasion storyline from the comics. One of Marvel’s broader events showing the Skrulls taking over Earth in secret, made possible by their shape-shifting abilities. So far the MCU has only seen good Skrulls who have forged good relationships with both Nick Fury and Carol Danvers, but that is about to change with the arrival of a few villains.
During the Disney Investor Day presentation, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed that they are preparing a Secret Invasion series for Disney +, confirming that Samuel L. Jackson will reprise his role as Nick Fury and Ben Mendelsohn as the Skrull. , Talos.
A long-awaited project.
Recently, rumors claimed that a Nick Fury television series was in development at Marvel Studios. With Fury playing a major role in the new series, it seems likely that the rumored project was actually Secret Invasion. Captain Marvel executive producer Jonathan Schwartz raised the idea that the Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck film would plant the seeds for an eventual Secret Invasion project, but with the Skrulls being portrayed as an alien race being hunted by the Kree and showing them Like the good guys, the possibility of this happening vanished.
Talos’ surprise return in Spider-Man: Far From Homemade one think we would be seeing the beginning of Secret Invasion but when it was revealed that Fury’s latest project is SWORD, or Sentient World Observation and Response Department, in association with the Skrulls it seemed that that moment was never going to ever come. Without a doubt, seeing the adaptation of Secret Invasion will be even more interesting as it will be approached with heroes such as Captain America and Iron Man outside the MCU.
