Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer SPOILER ALERT: This story discusses plot developments in Episode 2 of Marvel Studios’ “Secret Invasion,” currently streaming on Disney+. Samuel L. Jackson has played the super spy Nick Fury in 11 movies for Marvel Studios. Sometimes, he’s appeared in only a brief cameo; other times, he’s been the second or third lead in a movie with “Captain” in the title. In every appearance, Jackson exudes preternatural calm and cunning as one of the most formidable, non-superpowered humans in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

“We very seldom deal with Nick Fury in that way,” Jackson says. In “Secret Invasion,” Fury is at the ebb of his authority. Rattled by the Blip, he’d decamped to a space station orbiting Earth, but he gets pulled back home by his friend Talos (Ben Mendelsohn), one of the shapeshifting Skrulls Fury helped to save in “Captain Marvel,” to stop a separatist sect of Skrulls led by the fanatical Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir). In the June 21 premiere episode, Fury and Talos fail to stop Gravik from bombing a public square Moscow. In Episode 2, Fury demands a meeting with James “Rhodey” Rhodes (Don Cheadle), the Air Force colonel and former Avenger who fought alongside Fury as War Machine. Fury’s surprised to discover that not only does Rhodes already know about the Skrull threat, he rebukes Fury’s request for support to stop it. So Fury tries to evoke their common experience as Black men inside the halls of power — including Fury’s experience unwittingly working for

Game of Thrones actor Emilia Clarke has said she “almost ran over” her Secret Invasion co-star Samuel L. Jackson while filming the new Marvel show.The show – which premiered on Disney+ last week – sees Clarke play the character of G’iah while Jackson reprises his role as Nick Fury. Ben Mendelsohn also appears in the show, reprising his Captain Marvel role as the alien Talos.In a new interview with Yahoo Entertainment, Clarke recalled the on-set near-miss.She explained: “They put me in a Lada, which is like a very old Russian car…And I got in and I was like, ‘Hey, what’s with the six [shift knobs] up in here? Which one am I using? Why does it have 10 pedals?’“It’s [like] a tractor…I know how to drive.
Emilia Clarke is making her debut within the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the newly released Secret Invasion on Disney+, and she’s opening up about a near-miss that took place while filming the show.
Cobie Smulders is opening up about Maria Hill’s fate following the first episode of Marvel’s Secret Invasion.
Adam B. Vary Senior Entertainment Writer SPOILER ALERT: This story discusses major plot developments in the series premiere of Marvel Studios’ “Secret Invasion,” currently streaming on Disney+. Since her first appearance as Maria Hill in 2012’s “The Avengers,” Cobie Smulders has popped into the Marvel Cinematic Universe roughly half-dozen times, racing into danger and cheating death as the hyper-competent lieutenant to Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), most recently in 2019’s “Spider-Man: Far From Home.” So when Marvel started planning the Disney+ series “Secret Invasion” — about how the shape-shifting Skrulls from the 2019’s prequel film “Captain Marvel” have turned against Fury and started infiltrating all levels of human society — it made perfect sense for Maria to show up, too.

The latest Marvel series is drawing some unexpected controversy.
SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from the first episode of the Disney+ series Secret Invasion.
Zack Sharf Digital News Director Marvel’s “Secret Invasion” is causing a stir on social media after one of the series’ executive producers, Ali Selim, confirmed to Polygon that artificial intelligence was used to create the series’ opening credits sequence. Selim explained the decision to use AI felt right given the plot of “Secret Invasion,” which follows Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) as he uncovers shape-shifting Skrulls who have gained positions of power across the Earth by appearing as human world leaders. The opening credits, designed by Method Studios, is a montage of moving paintings that depict the Skrulls’ invasion of Earth. “When we reached out to the AI vendors, that was part of it — it just came right out of the shape-shifting, Skrull world identity, you know? Who did this? Who is this?” Selim said, while also admitting he doesn’t “really understand” how AI works.
This new Marvel villain is complicated.
Emilia Clarke’s imposter syndrome was running rife on the set of “Secret Invasion”.
Samuel L. Jackson is happy to be back.
