They fight against time to prevent an imminent Skrull invasion and save humanity. Marvel Studios dropped the trailer of Secret Invasion on their Twitter handle and wrote, "Who do you trust? Marvel Studios’ @SecretInvasion, an Original series, is streaming June 21 on @DisneyPlus. #SecretInvasion."

Martin Freeman on Secret Invasion 

Before the trailer of Secret Invasion was dropped, Martin Freeman teased fans and said that the show "unlike anything Marvel has done before." He further stated that the tone of the series is "pretty dark, both figuratively and literally."

"It feels pretty different to the stuff I’ve seen. It does feel like a little departure. Yeah, it does – in ways that I wouldn’t be that able to describe. Again, I’ve not seen it. I’ve not even read all of it," he said.
