Deadline is reporting that Irish actor Killian Scott (Damnation; Dublin Murders; Love/Hate) has joined the increasingly impressive cast of Marvel Studios' upcoming Disney+ series, Secret Invasion.
However, as expected, further details on his role are being kept under lock-and-key somewhere deep in Kevin Feige's office.
While plot details are also being kept under wraps, the series is expected to adapt the crossover comic arc of the same name that reveals how the shape-shifting Skrulls have infiltrated the planet and have been manipulating events to their liking for decades.
He joins an ensemble cast headlined by Academy Award-nominee Samuel L. Jackson (Spider-Man: Far From Home; Avengers: Endgame) as Nick Fury and Primetime Emmy-winner Ben Mendelsohn (Bloodline; Captain Marvel) as Talos.
4x Primetime Emmy-nominee Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones; Solo: A Star Wars Story; Terminator: Genisys) and Academy Award-winner Olivia Colman (The Father; The Favourite; Tyrannosaur) have also joined the cast in key roles with Kingsley Ben-Adir (The OA; Peaky Blinders; King Arthur: Legend of the Sword) on board as the series' lead villain.
A director hasn't been confirmed just yet, but Kyle Bradstreet (Mr. Robot; Copper; Borgia) is serving as head writer on the project.
With casting now fully underway, production on the six-episode miniseries is expected to begin sometime this fall in the United Kingdom and Europe, presumably with a mid-to-late 2022 debut in consideration.
