Who Would Be the MCU’s Silliest Skrull Reveal?

Earlier within the week, Marvel lastly pulled again the curtain on Secret Invasion, one of many many Disney+ exhibits they’ve nonetheless received within the pipeline. Based mostly on a 2008 comedian e-book occasion from Brian Michael Bendis and Lenil Francis Yu, the collection will see a returning Nick Fury uncover that the Skrulls from Captain Marvel have been placing themselves in highly effective positions everywhere in the world. That means we’re as soon as once more within the paranoid espionage thriller area, one thing the MCU hasn’t carried out in a few years, relying on the way you view Black Widow.

In case you’ve forgotten, because it’s been fairly awhile since Captain Marvel got here out, Skrulls can shapeshift into anybody (possibly something?) they need. They have been one thing of an endangered species in that film, however because it’s been a number of in-universe many years since we final noticed them within the MCU, that inhabitants has possible elevated an excellent quantity since then. Which suggests just about anybody might be a Skrull, as we noticed with Spider-Man: Far From Dwelling. (They have been gonna Skrullify Jake Gyllenhaal at one level, keep in mind that?) You gained’t actually know somebody’s really a shapeshifting alien till the the MCU outright says as such on display.

The Skrulls can be utilized as a great way to generate paranoia and stress, which is exactly what occurred within the comics and Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. We’re already beginning to see a few of this with of us like Sharon Carter, nevertheless it’s additionally enjoyable to think about what essentially the most random Skrull reveal might be. Like, it gained’t occur, but when it turned out Ned from the Spider-Man motion pictures or Pug from She-Hulk have been aliens this whole time? That’d be humorous.

Earlier than Secret Invasion’s trailer hits the web later tonight, let us know what MCU characters you suppose would make for the goofiest Skrull reveals.
