Secret Invasion Episode 3 Preview: Talos Warns Gravik About Humans
With a new chapter hitting this week, here's a look at Disney+ & Marvel Studios' Samuel L. Jackson & Ben Mendelsohn-starring Secret Invasion.
It's two episodes down and four to go for Disney+ & Marvel Studios' Samuel L. Jackson & Ben Mendelsohn-starring Secret Invasion – and by the end of "Promises," we got a very good idea just how far into Fury's (Jackson) professional and personal life the Skrulls have infiltrated (no spoilers). And that brings us to a sneak preview of this week's episode, as Talos (Ben Mendelsohn) looks to get through to Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir) before things get past the point of no return. "You're going to take our people to the edge of extinction with a war with the humans," Talos warns the Skrull revolutionary leader – who has a pretty straightforward way of handling that problem: "I'm going to murder them all."
Here's a look at a sneak preview for this week's chapter, followed by a look back at what we know about the series so far:
Marvel Studios' Secret Invasion: A Preview
For a look at Marvel Studios & Disney+'s Secret Invasion, here's a look at a behind-the-scenes featurette, the official trailer & series overview (with the series' first two episodes now streaming):
In a previous interview, director Ali Selim and producer Jonathan Schwartz shared how Captain America: The Winter Soldier proved that the powered-down, espionage side of the MCU could be popular with the fans and how that helped give the series a boost. "The first conversations I had [with Marvel] were, 'Nobody flies in the air in the show,'" Selim shared. "I realized, 'Yeah, they're doing something very different, and that's exciting.'" Schwartz adds that the upcoming series has the added bonus of being able to take a deeper dive into who Fury is as a person. "'The Winter Soldier' certainly gave us a lot of confidence that we could tell a story in that space that felt more like a paranoid thriller. 'Secret Invasion' takes that a step further, and you really get to dig into Nick. It becomes much more character-focused in a way that I really love," he added.
In Marvel Studios' new series "Secret Invasion," set in the present day MCU, Nick Fury learns of a clandestine invasion of Earth by a faction of shapeshifting Skrulls. Fury joins his allies, including Everett Ross, Maria Hill and the Skrull Talos, who has made a life for himself on Earth. Together they race against time to thwart an imminent Skrull invasion and save humanity.
Marvel Studios' Secret Invasion stars Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, Cobie Smulders, Martin Freeman, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Charlayne Woodard, Killian Scott, Samuel Adewunmi, Dermot Mulroney, Christopher McDonald, and Katie Finneran, with Emilia Clarke, Olivia Colman, and Don Cheadle. Ali Selim directs the series and executive-produces, along with fellow executive producers Jackson, Kevin Feige, Jonathan Schwartz, Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Kyle Bradstreet, and Brian Tucker. Bradstreet is also the head writer, and Jennifer L. Booth, Allana Williams, and Brant Englestein serve as co-executive producers.
