![]() Two of them that really stuck out to me, The Third Man and The Searchers. ![]() And Marvel said, “We have to keep going with that energy.” So it really started as more of a buddy cop movie put back together, and then telling a story that presumably and undeniably expands on what’s in the comic books, but the comic books are not a foundation for this. This show comes out of energy created by Samuel L. When I started working on this 28 months ago, I was told, “Don’t read the comics.” This story is a lot different than the comics. No, I’m safely ensconced in a hotel room, but once I go out on the streets, who knows? I thought the end of episode two people would talk about, I thought the end of episode one, I would have hit squads. Are we to expect that with every episode of all six? And I think to your point, it’s very much a current event and it’s very much true to the character at the same time.īoth episodes I saw end shockingly. We understand that ignited his grievance and the fact that his grievance is not being heard knights him to this level of violence. Sympathetic is not exactly the word, but we understand him better because we understand the environment, the promise that Nick Fury made to him. And I apply it to Gravik where he’s a more sympathetic and well-rounded character. I’ve always said, even when I was working on Looming Tower and other espionage shows, I think that the best thing we can do to understand violent reactions to events is go back and understand the grievance that these people have and then go back even further and understand the environment that created that grievance. Yeah, but you have to make it believable. Well, a lot of the questions you ask come from the script… Was it difficult to kind of rework what happened in Captain Marvel? We learn the Skrulls aren’t the villains, but now they kind of have to be again… ![]() And if they have attributes from our current heroes and our current villains, I think it’s a great way to identify with character, but it’s less an exploration of current events and more an exploration of the inner lives of the MCU characters that we’ve come to love. And I think it’s that balance of shepherding the incredibly powerful Marvel brand and telling the story within these six episodes and finding the themes that are interesting about trust and suspicion and identity. Especially with current events in the past week. Yeah, I mean, I think those kind of issues are Gravik’s motivation really… It’s mentioned in the first episode that a Skrull is trying to play off the rage and anger of others to promote violence… And I think we really gave it to her to play. Put me in one.” So I think this was less about who would be a great sadistic torturer and more welcoming Olivia Colman into the MCU, because she really wanted to be a part of it and play it. And she said, ever since she saw the first one, she called her agent and begged, “Put me in one. And Olivia has told me on many occasions, and she just said this morning again, she has three teenage boys and she goes to see all the Marvel. Maybe Queen Elizabeth had people do it for her. I think she had a lot of fun and I actually don’t think that’s that far from Queen Elizabeth. Olivia Colman cuts a finger off of a person. And he tells us about Olivia Colman’s entry to the MCU as a British government agent who works more as a mob boss who is not a fan of the Skrulls and uses pretty drastic interrogation techniques that involve cutting fingers off (and she looks like she’s having the time of her life while doing so). On top of that, the first two episodes (the first premiering this Wednesday) both end with fairly shocking developments (that won’t be revealed here.) Ahead, director and executing producer Ali Selim takes us through his interpretation of what this series means and how it does or doesn’t mirror some current events. But a faction within has grown impatient and has decided the Skrulls should just stay on Earth and, while they are at it, get rid of all the humans by manipulating strategic violent events that will be sure to start wars between nations. ![]() Jackson, back for the first time since Spider-Man: Far From Home) has promised the Skrulls a new planet and Ben Mendelsohn’s Talos has become an ally of Fury. Back in Captain Marvel‘s ’90s set story, the Skrulls were refugees without a planet. ‘ Secret Invasion’ is the new Marvel Disney+ series about a battle between two factions of the shapeshifting Skrulls and the humans here on Earth caught in the middle.
