Mind-Blowing Revelation: Marvel Drops Major Secret Invasion Bombshell Ahead of Finale

The Marvels has unveiled new images hinting at a brighter future for the Skrulls after the events of Secret Invasion. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a Skrull revolution led by Nick Fury is currently taking place. However, it appears that the ultimate resolution for the Skrulls will be explored in the upcoming Captain Marvel sequel. Brie Larson will reprise her role as Carol Danvers and will be joined by Photon and Ms. Marvel. The Skrulls, who were initially introduced in 2019's Captain Marvel as misunderstood refugees, arrived on Earth in 1995. They sought refuge from the Kree Empire, who had destroyed their home planet. Initially promised assistance by Nick Fury and Captain Marvel, the Skrulls have now experienced the consequences of this unfulfilled pledge through the revelations of Secret Invasion. Consequently, a full-scale revolution has erupted among the Skrulls with the aim of claiming Earth for themselves. It appears that The Marvels will be the project within the MCU that ultimately determines the Skrulls' fate.

Captain Marvel Is Reunited With The Skrulls In The Marvels

New images for The Marvels confirm that Carol Danvers will reunite with the Skrulls in the upcoming MCU movie. The circumstances are challenging, with Secret Invasion nearing its conclusion. Under the leadership of the new Skrull general Gravik, the Super-Skrulls are gaining power, and the ongoing rebellion suggests that most Skrulls have lost hope in finding a new home. Consequently, they launch aggressive attacks to weaken humanity and claim Earth for themselves.

Interestingly, the presence of Skrulls alongside Captain Marvel in the new image for The Marvels suggests that their story will continue beyond the finale of Secret Invasion. This raises the possibility that Danvers may fulfill her promise from 30 years ago and lead the Skrulls to a new home with the help of Nick Fury. This would offer a brighter future compared to the current grim situation, especially considering that there is only one episode of Secret Invasion remaining in the new MCU show.

Why The Skrulls Need Closure In The MCU

The Skrulls' presence in the MCU is unlikely to last indefinitely. The constant threat posed by shape-shifting aliens would surely continue to divert attention after the events of Marvel's Secret Invasion. Hence, in The Marvels, Captain Marvel's act of providing the Skrulls with a permanent home off-planet appears to be the only way to conclusively resolve their storyline in the MCU. Talos confirmed that there are over a million Skrulls residing on Earth, making it desirable for them to have a more positive outcome after years of living as concealed refugees in the MCU.
