We’re a little over a week away from the finale of Marvel’s Secret Invasion series on Disney Plus, and fans of the Tinker Tailor Solider Skrull thriller are pretty amped.
Despite low viewership, many of those actually watching the series consider it to be the adult Marvel thriller they’ve been waiting for, as well as a source of better-than-average dialogue and action that thankfully doesn’t look like it was shot in front of a green screen.
Plus, it’s alluring to see a guy like Nick Fury, who’s famous for using his wits and his will to get the upper hand, appear to reach the end of both and still lead the fight.
However, one question we’ve had all season focuses on what happened to the humans who are replaced by the shape-shifting Skrulls. A new trailer from Marvel seems to answer that question:
About halfway through the trailer, there are a few quick shots of G’iah, a Skrull using the face of Emilia Clarke, in a large storage area housing hundreds of cocooned bodies that seem to be in trapped in an induced coma. This could be where all the mimicked humans are kept while the Skrulls are out in the world living their lives for them. Is Martin Freeman’s Everett Ross among them? Is James Rhodes? We’ll have to wait and see.
The trailer also teases another confrontation between Fury and the Skrull posing as Rhodey, where the fake Lieutenant Colonel brings a host of gunmen to the fight and calls Fury “the most wanted and hated man on the planet.” There’s also a brief glimpse of a Super Skrull that appears to have been drinking whatever gamma protein shakes the Hulk stocks up on.
Episode 5 of Secret Invasion airs this Wednesday on Disney Plus. The finale airs the following week, on July 26.
