Samuel L. Jackson is back in action as Nick Fury in the much-anticipated Marvel Studios Disney+ series 'Secret Invasion', but he's not the same character we knew, according to a trailer first glimpsed by Vanity Fair in late 2022.
Nick Fury Returns: Samuel L. Jackson in 'Secret Invasion'
In the trailer, a worn and tired Fury states, "This is my war. Alone. I'm the last person standing between them and what they really want." The "them" Fury refers to are the Skrulls, the green, pointy-eared alien shapeshifters first introduced in Captain Marvel. Unlike their previous portrayal as refugee aliens, it appears that these creatures have cunningly infiltrated world governments, taking over without firing a single shot.
World Leaders, Aliens, and Twists: What 'Secret Invasion' Holds
It's a gripping premise, inspired by Marvel Comics' original storyline, and sets the stage for a series filled with unexpected twists when it starts streaming on Disney+ in 2023. The show's star-studded cast includes Oscar winner Olivia Coleman as a concerned (or possibly Skrull) world leader, Ben Mendelsohn returning as the well-intentioned Skrull Talos, and Kingsley Ben-Adir, whose character is surrounded by Skrull imposters.
Interestingly, the trailer revealed more of Nick Fury than what's been publicly released for the upcoming sequel to Captain Marvel, 'The Marvels.' The new installment will unite Brie Larson's galactic protector Iman Vellani's young fangirl Kamala Khan from the Ms. Marvel show, and Teyonah Parris' now photon-powered Monica Rambeau from WandaVision.
Excitement was high at the Disney D23 Expo as Marvel showcased 'Secret Invasion' and the future of its cinematic universe. However, one thing remains clear from this look back – the threat of an alien invasion looms large, and Nick Fury, in all his grit and determination, stands as our last line of defense in 'Secret Invasion.'
