Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe can get swept up in Easter Eggs, and teases for upcoming stories that might happen in future Phases, that they sometimes overlook the simple fact that Marvel projects have outstanding actors making the most out of powerful dramatic material. Secret Invasion is one of the best Marvel TV shows available on Disney+ at the moment, and is a welcome respite from the Multiverse Saga that’s expanding in the movies. It’s a grounded spy thriller, similar in tone to Captain America: The Winter Soldier, that pits an aged Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) against shape-shifting Skrulls who have infiltrated positions of power around our planet. But the Secret Invasion cast is incredible, and Episode 2 of the show made great use of both Jackson and Don Cheadle in a spectacular scene.
