new marvel previews that you probably saw versions of in your timelines at some point in the last day
or two you can see nick fury maria hill taylor's and emilia clarke's character she's playing
someone new from the comics that i'll explain in a second all coming together in russia now they're
filming this in the uk but they're making it look like russia i'll explain why in a second so when
they're running around on the streets here this is meant to be russia like you look at all the
street signs the license plates all the signs it's all in russian i know there are all these pictures
of spider-man running around in a costume in the advanced suit on the set while this is going on
but this is not tom holland this is just a regular cosplayer just a normal person who went full
yolo and ran around on the sets until security escorted him off but it does make for some really
funny spider-man scroll theories but it's meant to be the real nick fury this time this is what he's
going to look like at this point after the events of spider-man no way home he's not wearing the eye
patch anymore and they're just showing you his bad eyes scars and everything he has removed his eye
patch in the past before he showed us the bad eye all the way back in captain america winter soldier
you need to keep both eyes open so it's not the first time they've done this it's just that his
eye patch is such an iconic part of his costume going way back in the comics that it's kind of
weird seeing him without it but it gives him this more raw angrier look and he does look pissed off
in all this footage as you would expect nick fury to be talos is also in his human form ben
mendelsohn obviously like we saw during the captain marvel movie maria hill looks like
she just got into a fight has a few extra city miles on her but she's back it is not meant to be
taylor's wife pretending to be her or anything it really is the real version of maria hill you also
have to assume that if it was taylor's wife during the spider-man far from home post-credit scene the
real maria hill was also probably also on that scroll space station with the real nick fury
and as you all probably have guessed from emilia clarke's green and pink looking shirt she's
wearing under her jacket it's a bit of a subtle reference to the comic book character that she's
playing her character description just calls her a confident spy with some powers and attitude
that can get in and out of situations with ease and she's well trained and intelligent the current
best theory right now and a lot of you probably had this theory after they first announced she
was joining the series is that she's playing the mcu version of abigail brand who is from the x-men
comics and was the former head of sword which we just saw in the wandavision series for the first
time they're like the mcu space version of shield who's mostly tasked with protecting earth from
threats from outer space now they did something different with them during the wandavision series
they kind of made sword seem like the villains but they're not really a villainous organization
it's kind of like hydra taking over shield shield itself was not evil it was just that people inside
shield were evil and using it for bad things so even though tyler hayward created white
vision during the wandavision series inside sword that doesn't mean the entire organization has now
been thrown in the garbage when amelia clark's character description says she'll have powers
that will help her get in and out of situations with ease abigail bran's powers in the comics
are tactile pyrokinesis she can generate flames from her hands that are hot enough to burn through
metal and she has a tongue that can shape alien languages on the fly which is what i think they
really mean when they say getting herself into and out of trouble she could pass as either a
cree or a scroll in human form she could speak their languages fluently whereas nick fury and
maria hill can't i'll explain the creep part in a second too because i believe they're also going
to be using the secret invasion series to pay off another really big spider-man far from home
easter egg that we haven't heard about since then i thought cree having sleeper cells was top-secret
information because secret invasion was this huge avengers crossover event i know a lot of you are
asking about them doing scroll versions of other avengers characters they might have some jokes and
references to scrolls impersonating other avengers in various points but kevin feige said this was
going to be more of a political thriller series than a full-blown adventure series like the comic
book we're at interested in the in the paranoia political paranoia aspect of secret invasion and
of course it will tie into other things and and and the scrolls in ways you haven't seen before
so we're probably not going to see scroll versions of all the avengers fighting together in a huge
battle or anything and in all this footage here like i said they're filming scenes in the uk as
if it were russia and i believe it's meant to be moscow this big celebration that they're putting
up here all these russian signs are saying that it's national unity day which is a real holiday
in russia it's the date they used to commemorate the end of the polish russian war in the early
1600s when they expelled the last of the forces out of the country the end of the period that
they called the time of troubles when moscow had been occupied by enemy forces for a long period so
the irony here is that they're in moscow and it is still occupied after avengers end game and present
day while they're celebrating issues that is a group of alien infiltrators occupying the city as
well as other pockets of them all over the earth but the big twist here in the easter egg that i'm
talking about from spider-man far from home is that i do not think that it's the skrulls who are
the villains of secret invasion even though that is the comic book story i think they're actually
paying off the spider-man far from home easter egg about the cree sleeper cells obviously it was
talos and his wife pretending to be nick fury and maria hill when they were talking about the secret
of the cree sleeper cells but clearly at this point in the timeline eight months after avengers
end game it's a big problem they're dealing with and it also probably explains why nick fury was
with the cree on their space station they used the entire captain marvel movie to say the mcu scrolls
weren't bad it was the cree who were bad nick fury has been working with the cree in outer space ever
since the end of the captain marvel movie in the 90s like the space station he's on here is huge
it would have taken years to build the way they ended that first captain marvel movie made it
sound like the cree would come back for their revenge like a star wars empire strikes back
situation we'll get you in the future it sounds like part of that plan involves all these cree
sleeper cells the secret invasion series is supposed to be released right before the captain
marvel 2 movie the marvels and help set it up so during the episodes they'll probably try to
root out all these cree sleeper cells and like the bigger villains and that'll spin up to the
full-blown cree invasion plot during the captain marvel 2 movie or they'll have some way of paying
that off during the movie that's also why we got monica rambeau spectrum in wandavision last year
and we'll get miss marvel kamala khan later this summer also to help set them up for the marvels
movie i haven't heard anything about amelia clark coming back in the marvels but just like fellow
game of thrones alum jon snow kit harington's black knight character is crossing over
in the blade movie after the eternals movie and other movies like avengers 5. so i think the
idea is that they're setting up emilia clarke's character to show up in future movies as well but
i don't expect them to have any kind of jon snow and daenerys reunion anytime soon in any of the
big upcoming marvel projects like they did have a jon snow rob stark reunion in the eternals movie
next time i see you you'll be all in black it was always my color and so he did the
next time rob stark saw jon snow he was the black knight talking about the spider-man no way home
connections in easter eggs so during the events of spider-man no way home when spider-man gets
arrested by damage control and they're grilling him about mysterio iron man's stark tech drones
peter yells at them to just contact nefuri he was there for everything he saw it all he can tell you
what happened and the mysterio was responsible for all this but in this scene here the damage control
agent says nick fury's been off planet since the end of avengers end game basically peter did not
know he's like wait what what are you talking about he's been off planet who was the person i
was talking to that entire time he still does not know that it was talos pretending to be nick fury
side note too because of the way dr strange's spell works because it basically erases everyone's
memories on earth of peter parker i know a lot of you are asking does that mean if nick fury is
on his space station nick fury still remembers peter parker i do not think that they're going
to address that at all during secret invasion there might be some spider-man references but
i don't think they're going to get into the idea of whether or not the spell affected him
the way the writers of spider-man no way home explained that big twist is that they just kind
of left it for future movies to explore so when they do spider-man 4 they'll just leave it to
whoever winds up writing that movie to explain how powerful the spell is and who gets affected and
who is not affected so that just means that you're free to theory craft about the way the spell works
if you have any other questions about what's going on with this or the other marvel disney
plus series let me know in the comments next up is going to be the marvel moon knight episodes i will
be doing full episode videos for that click here to watch my full trailer breakdown for that it's
going to be awesome and click here for my eternals deleted scene with kit harington's black knight
character thank you so much for watching everyone stay safe and i'll see you guys in the next one!
