How to 'Captain Marvel & # 39; install the Skrulls for the secret invasion of the MCU

Today, the world has had a first major look at Marvel Studios Captain Marvel film, with a complete breakdown of the film in a EW feature, as well as a whole gallery of photos detailing key elements of the film such as the Captain Marvel costume by Brie Larson, a Sam L. Jackson parade as Young Nick Fury, and familiar faces from other Marvel Cinematic films Universe make a comeback.

However, it was the information on Captain Marvel the story that could be the most interesting revelation: we now know how the film will approach the Carol Danvers story and what kind of extraterrestrial threat it will face. This last point proved particularly important: there are now new indices Captain Marvel will set up the adaptation of MCU Phase 4 of the crossing event "Secret Invasion" of the 2000 Marvel Comics!

"Secret Invasion" has been speculated to be a big part of MCU Phase 4 since the first details about The Skrulls being in Captain Marvel first appeared. In the history of Marvel Comics, it has been revealed that personalities from the Marvel Universe have been imitating Skrull for years, helping to destabilize and / or lead the world to divided locations between Marvel heroes (civil war). , and there was enough trouble and protection for a complete Skrull armada to invade the Earth, bringing with them a new generation of Skrull operators. Various factions of Marvel superheroes had to join forces and defend key positions like NYC and Wakanda with the Skrulls, while having to deal with the suspicions of their compatriots, no one can be sure who was a Skrull.

In EWreport we learn about the Skrull program on Earth, related to Carol's return to her planet:

"… But soon after, Carol finds herself on Earth with new questions about her past, and she has a formidable enemy in the form of the Skrulls – the notorious villains of Marvel were all the more dangerous by their Ben Mendelsohn plays his leader Talos, who leads an invasion of the Earth by Skrull. "

Many Marvel fans have heard that Captain Marvel would fit Marvel's iconic "Kree / Skrull War" story, and thought that it meant that Carol Danvers would start on Earth, and end up dragged into a cosmic conflict between the Kree and the Skrulls; The revelation that she will begin in the cosmos and come to Earth to stop a Skrull plot, has far greater implications on how this movie will set up the next chapter of the MCU.

The length of this is the following: no matter how the events of Captain Marvel in the end, there seems to be a huge opportunity for intrigue nets of paramount importance – especially a revelation that Skrull agents that Carol Danvers and Co. believe to have arrested have infiltrated into the MCU, replacing one or more notable figures. This would be the kind of revelation that allows the MCU to bypass the entire construction of "Secret Invasion": at the moment of Avengers: Infinity War, Skrull's agents on Earth would have information and would see ample opportunities to make contact with the empire and start a large-scale invasion, when "The Snap" left the Earth helpless. In fact, the growing evidence of Skrull invaders could be a problem for the heroes of the MCU to save the universe. The day after Avengers 4Skrull hunting can become a priority.
