Can Secret Invasion’s Finale Redeem The Show?
In theory, Marvel’s Secret Invasion had everything going for it. The show was set up to be an adaptation of one of the comics’ most impactful storylines with a big enough budget to do the premise justice. The cast is stacked, with huge names like Olivia Coleman, Emilia Clarke, and Don Cheadle joining Samuel L. Jackson in supporting roles. In addition to these powerhouse actors bringing the Secret Invasion arc to life in a spy-thriller miniseries, Secret Invasion promised a story that was supposed to show the deeply personal impact that the events of Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame had on individual people in a way that audiences haven’t seen yet in any of the other Marvel/Disney Plus shows. Secret Invasion could have been one of the most significant projects in recent MCU history, but it quickly fell short.
