The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) latest Disney+ show, Secret Invasion, has already generated a lot of excitement among fans. Recently, new details have been revealed about the villains in the show, adding to the anticipation for its premiere later this year.
Secret Invasion is being touted as the MCU’s first true “crossover event,” and will feature Nick Fury and Talos teaming up to identify which MCU characters are imposters. The villains they will face are a sect of rogue Skrulls who have infiltrated Earth over the past few years.
According to recent rumors, the rogue Skrull group will be led by Kingsley Ben-Adir’s antagonist, Gravik, who was revealed as the series’ big bad in September 2022. The rumor also revealed that the show will be set in Russia and that the country and its neighboring areas will be key locations for the rogue Skrulls’ plans.
One location in particular that has been mentioned is the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The Skrulls are said to be building a device in the underground levels of the plant, which requires a great deal of power. While it’s unclear what the device does, there is a theory that it could be used to create the MCU’s Super Skrulls.
The idea of a “Skrull God” being utilized in the series has also been teased through merchandise, which could potentially lead to the creation of Super Skrulls later in the plot. The addition of Super Skrulls would only heighten the stakes in this already highly-anticipated series.
Unfortunately, there has been news of a significant delay in the release of Secret Invasion, with the show most likely not hitting Disney+ until sometime in June. However, with a dozen huge names confirmed and rumored for appearances in the series, fans are still eagerly awaiting its arrival.
Overall, the Skrulls are set to play a vital role in the MCU’s greater Earth-bound story once again, as viewers wait to find out who could be looking to take over the world. The MCU has a history of delivering high-quality content, and Secret Invasion looks to be no exception. It promises to be a thrilling addition to the MCU’s expanding universe, and fans can’t wait to see how the story unfolds.
