The Marvel Cinematic Universe has yet again showered its audience with another secret and exciting surprise. In its latest series, ‘Secret Invasion’, Emilia Clarke, of ‘Game of Thrones’ fame, is set to join the cast.
The show, which is a part of the Disney+ Marvel lineup, is based on the comic book miniseries by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Leinil Francis Yu. It follows the story of the Skrulls, a shape-shifting alien race that has infiltrated Earth and impersonated several Marvel heroes.
Emilia Clarke has been confirmed by Marvel as playing the mysterious part of an unidentified character in ‘Secret Invasion’. Though her role has been kept under wraps and no details about her character have been released, there is a lot to speculate about.
The show wouldn’t be Clarke’s first foray into superhero-dom. She previously played Qi’Ra in the 2018 movie ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’. She also voiced character Satine in the video game ‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’. With her previous experience, fans can expect great performances from Clarke in ‘Secret Invasion’.
The show itself seems to be gathering steam. In addition to the new casting announcement, the show has also gained additional Marvel alums like Samuel Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, and Olivia Colman. Furthermore, Nick Fury and Talos, who were both played by Jackson in ‘Captain Marvel’ and ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home” respectively, are also set to appear in the show.
Overall, ‘Secret Invasion’ looks like it will be amazing. With Emilia Clarke’s involvement, and the addition of the rest of the amazing cast, the show is sure to be an intriguing and action-packed addition to the MCU. Fans won’t have to wait much longer to see who Emilia Clarke is playing in ‘Secret Invasion’ either. The show is slated to start filming this summer and the series will premiere some time in 2022. So stay tuned to Marvel for more exciting updates!
