Emilia Clarke joins Secret Invasion as unrevealed character

Former Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke joins Secret Invasion, the upcoming Disney+ series from Marvel Studios where she will play an unspecified / unrevealed role. If the reports are true then she’ll be the second confirmed cast member outside of Kingsley Ben-Adir who is rumored to play the Skrull emperor Dorekk.

Variety and other channels reports that the former Khaleesi is in final talks to join the cast of the Skrull-centric series Secret Invasion based on the early 2000s story written by Brian Michael Bendis and Leinil Francis Yu.

In this story, a cult of fanatical Skrulls invade Earth and almost conquer it by breaking the trust of both heroes and villains alike and replacing key members of society with Skrull infiltrators. The battle is won after a big fight happens in New York between the Skrulls and the combined forces of the Mighty Avengers, the New Avengers, the Thunderbolts and the Young Avengers.

Clarke has been nominated a total of four times for the Emmys for her role as Daenerys Targaryen on HBO’s Game of Thrones. She has also  been nominated numerous times for the Critics Choice Award and the winner of the 2018 BAFTA Britannia Award for British Artist of the Year.

Clarke joining the MCU and Marvel Studios also marks the third big Game of Thrones alum with Kit Harrington (Jon Snow) already set to play Dane Whitman in The Eternals as well as his “brother” Richard Madden who plays Ikaris, also in “The Eternals“. Meanwhile the Secret Invasion already confirmed that Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn will be reprising their roles from Captain Marvel namely as Nick Fury and the Skrull Talos. Olivia Colman is also set to join the cast and her role has also yet to be revealed.
