Secret Invasion: Emilia Clarke Shares New Photos And Says Her Dog Nearly Destroyed The Set
Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will bring some epic stories to life in Disney+ movies and shows, starting with Secret Invasion. The Disney+ exclusive series will be based on the 2008-2009 crossover event of the same name and will revolve around a series of new and returning faces. Among the first is Emilia Clarke, interpreter of Game of Thrones and Solo: A Star Wars Story, who was cast for a hitherto unknown role in the series and recently shared a new behind-the-scenes on Instagram. In the photos you can see below, Clarke shared pictures of herself and her dog Ted of her, who apparently “nearly destroyed a set” of Secret Invasion after wanting to be filmed.
Secret Invasion will focus on MCU veterans Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and Talos (Mendelsohn) struggling with an invasion of shape shifting Skrulls who have infiltrated all aspects of life on Earth. Other MCU veterans include Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, Don Cheadle as James “Rhodey” Rhodes / War Machine and Martin Freeman as Everett K. Ross.

“I think what they’re doing right now is so exciting and so beautiful, and so cutting edge. I feel like they’re the Apple of this world ”Clarke explained in an interview last year. “Being part of that family is like saying, ‘Oh my God, I’m one of the cool kids.’ It’s so cool. ‘ Honestly speaking, the people who are making it are the ones who pushed me to want to do it. I think everyone’s heart and head are in the right place”.
“The coolest thing about the series is that it allows us to immerse ourselves more in the characters, really exploring their relationships with each other,” Smulders explained in an interview earlier this year. “It was really exciting to shoot these scenes with Sam where we didn’t just talk about ‘How do we get it to fix it?’ And we were able to show a kind of relationship that can be seen behind the scenes”.
Among the new cast members will be Clarke, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Olivia Colman, Carmen Ejogo, Christopher McDonald, Dermot Mulroney and Killian Scott. The series will be written, and executive produced by Kyle Bradstreet and directed by Thomas Bezucha and Ali Sel Secret Invasion is expected to debut on Disney + in early 2023.
