SECRET INVASION Set Photos Give Us A First Look At ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI Star Kingsley Ben-Adir

We're still not sure who he's playing on the Disney+ show, but these latest photos from the Secret Invasion set give us a first look at Kingsley Ben-Adir (One Night In Miami, Peaky Blinders).

Production is now underway on the Secret Invasion Disney+ series in Leeds, England, and following our recent look at Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury), Ben Mendelsohn (Talos), Coby Smulders (Maria Hill) and Emilia Clarke (?) on set, we have a first glimpse of Kingsley Ben-Adir.

The One Night In Miami star's role has not been announced, and this snap doesn't give us much more to go on. It's been previously reported that he will be playing the villain of the piece, which has led to speculation that he might be Dorrek VII, Emperor of the Skrull Empire. Of course, if Ben-Adir was playing a shape-shifting alien, it makes sense that he'd take human form while infiltrating Earth.

We also have a video featuring a mysterious actress who has since been confirmed as Irina Kara (Killing Eve). We have no idea who she's playing, of course!

Plot details are still under wraps, but we do know that that the show will follow the basic premise of the comic book by focusing on "an infiltration of Skrulls on Earth" (no big surprises there). The cast will also include Olivia Coleman (The Favorite, The Lost Daughter) in an undisclosed role.

Thomas Bezucha (Let Him Go) and Ali Selim (The Looming Tower) have been tapped to helm the upcoming miniseries, which was written by Kyle Bradstreet (Mr. Robot). No official premiere date has been set.

Was great as Malcolm X, One Night In Miami definitely stayed with me after I watched it.

Glad to see Marvel cast him

He might be an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. working in tandem with Fury and Talos.

@NinnesMBC - that’s boring. I wanna see Falcon or Ross or Rhodie or Bruce or Pym or Wasp or someone not just “that stranger is in disguise! He’s really another stranger!!!”

Don't really feel invested in Skrulls rn tbh, more into the Multiverse shit or...well, if it's fun then why not? Dunno what to expect from this, the tone, the story etc...

Need a trailer i guess. :3

I'm having a feeling we get introduced to a FF member or 2 in this one. Maybe someone from that movie's supporting cast at least

@JFerguson - Perhaps Lyja could be introduced in Secret Invasion. In the comics, she impersonates Alicia Masters to infiltrate the Fantastic Four. Also, Lyja could manipulate Ben Grimm. He is emotionally vulnerable.

He's great in everything he's. Was fantastic as Malcolm X in One Night In Miam!

Really hope he doesn't turn out to be another human agent character like Hayward in WandaVision. Rather see him (and Killian Scott) as Kl'rt or Paibok

What if at the series finale he says: "Yeah i'm not who you think". We are expecting a skrull, but he says: "Mi name is Reed Richards"
