Emilia Clarke’s character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, who will debut in the TV series Secret Invasion, has been identified in a vanity fair Interview.
The upcoming Disney+ show follows Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) as he investigates a secret plan to put would-be lookalikes in positions of power around the world. The double agents turn out to be Skrull aliens who can shape the transition from their green-skinned dormant state into any human in existence by assuming their physical appearance.
Fury met the Skrulls in ‘Captain Marvel’ (2019), set in the 1990s, and promised their leader Talos (Ben Mendelsohn) that he would find them a place to live after their home planet was destroyed.

Jackson references the “Captain Marvel” scene in which Talos reunites with his Skrull family on a space station in Earth orbit as the first look at Emila Clarke’s character.
“Remember when Ben was there with his wife and daughter?” Jackson told VF. “She’s the little adult Skrull girl. She is his daughter.”
Clarke will play the adult G’iah (pronounced “guy-ah”) who sees her father as a failure in parenting and leadership.

“It sure toughened her up. There’s a certain punk feel to this girl,” Clarke said. “She’s a refugee child whose father was Talos, you know what I mean? Maybe the fact that we didn’t know he had a child up until this point tells you everything you need to know about their relationship.”
A lot of time has passed since Fury made that promise, and the Skrulls have decided to take matters into their own hands in a not-so-kind way, led by Resistance leader Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir), who has radicalized them.
“These people promised a lot a long time ago and not much has happened. So it’s understandable that some resentment was built up,” Clarke said. “There are many emotions that live in her and there are many confrontational aspects of her character that stem from circumstances. You understand why she has the feelings she has.”
The series will also star Oscar winner Olivia Colman. Secret Invasion will be released on Disney+ on June 21, 2023.
