MCU earned a lot of profits from movies in the last few years. However, no one expected that they would enter the world of television in the future but that became necessary when fans of the franchise expressed their wish to explore more of the minor characters in the film that left a lot of impact. While shows like ‘WandaVision’, ‘Loki’, ‘Moon Knight’ and more have been getting a positive reception, the franchise is planning a lot more for the upcoming few years and that includes ‘Secret Invasion.’
Just like every other project, ‘Secret Invasion’ will be continued from the storylines of the rest of the films in the franchise and is expected to answer a lot of questions that remained unanswered.

‘Secret Invasion’: Plot Details
MCU has a habit of not revealing anything about the plot of their projects and the reason is the surprises that they keep in store for the audience. Now in order to predict the show’s plot, we have to recall the comic book crossover that came out in 2008.
The story was about Earth being taken over by the Skrulls and the characters made their debut in ‘Captain Marvel’, released in 2019. However, the Skrulls were refugees searching for shelter from the Kree Empire. Considering that, we might get to see the extremist version of the alien civilization and the theme of betrayal will possibly be a part of the series.
Audiences remember that Ben Mendelsohn’s Talos collaborated with Nick Fury in the promotional material and he along with the rest of the Skrulls took over the SHIELD operation led by Nick during everything that happened in ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home.’ The show is expected to have a big impact on the MCU just like how the revelation of Hydra did in ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier.’
