They are not growing skrulls , they keep the bodies alive with a telepathic connection to the skrull impersonating them to make a perfect copy (assuming they are keeping the comic thing)
Hunch - The bodies on stretchers are all the people the Skrulls are impersonating, as I believe there's a telepathic bond thingy that's needed for it to work.
The villain Gravik, played by Kingsley Ben-Adir, is plotting something big, and it's actually the introduction of the super skrulls. He's the one with the Mr. Fantastic or Groot like elasticity skrull. Emilia Clarke is playing the grown-up daughter of Talos, and her name is G'iah
All this time I thought Kingsley Ben-Adir was just Ben Kingsley rearranging his name to honor his ethnic and religious roots in whatever eastern or middle eastern roots those happen to be. Oops, my bad.
New drinking game… watch all your favorite reactioners watching this trailer and take a shot every time they make the Kelly Clarkson reference! You’ll be shitfaced in minutes!
I had to do a double take when I saw this is going to be a series and not a movie, it looks too good to not be a movie. I’m very excited to watch this!
Nick Fury - Samuel L. Jackson Talos - Ben Mendelsohn Maria Hill - Cobie Smulders Gravik - Kingsley Ben-Adir G'iah - Emilia Clarke James "Rhodey" Rhodes - Don Cheadle Everett K. Ross - Martin Freeman Sonya Falsworth - Olivia Coleman
I think they are trying to replicate various superpowers from around the Marvel Universe and genetically engineer them into Skrulls, because Skrulls are kind of all about genetical mutations and engineering.
So curious to understand how much of the comics saga has been taken into account for this series. The "Secret Invasion" run completely changed the Marvel world, became a catastrophic event with all superhero teams involved and eventually discredited the heroes in favor of villains (and giving birth to the Dark Reign of Norman Osborn) but this doesn't seem the case for MCU.
It's going to be a suspenseful spy thriller (at least to start), and I'm all here for it! I feel like SLJ was part of that decision. _MARVEL: "Look, Sam, we're developing this series called SECRET WARS and we'd like you as lead."_ _SLJ: "Is it's tone gonna be like WINTER SOLDIER?"_ _M: "Wait, what?"_ _SLJ: "Is 'what' a tone? I said: Is it's tone gonna be like WINTER SOLDIER?"_ _M: "Well, I mean, it could be but we're still developing it and those decisions are-"_ _SLJ: "Is it's tone. Gonna be like. THE WINTER SOLDIER?"_ _M: "Uh. Yes. Yes, it is."_ _SLJ: "Good. I'm in."_ Also, Kamala Khan's family are of Pakistani heritage, not Indian. Though, there is the Partition to factor in. However, Kamala is a Pakistani-American (just as our local girl Iman Vellani is Pakistani-Canadian).
Now we are starting to see the consequences of the good will that both Mar-Vell and Carol Danvers tried to give the Skrulls back in the 1980/90s

things that always happened when people watch this trailer.. when the quote "since you've been gone" has been said, they will start singing

Just a quick lil correction, Ms Marvel’s family is Pakistani, not technically Indian, but there is Indian heritage
It's truly sad that not many people know the difference between Indian and Pakistani.

I thought the lab, with all the people glowing, was people they were side-lining in order to wear their faces.
Did that specimen box say "Specimen Sample: Cull"? Like Cull Obsidian, the Big Dude in the Children of Thanos?

Remember, his massive battle scar was done to him by a tabby cat that he bullied.

Today I learned Winter Soldier is your favorite Marvel film. You have exquisite taste.
We dont see martin freeman turning green
Love the reaction. And also a shout out for the sweater!
It's kinda got the same vibe as Winter Soldier for me. A cold war thriller kind of thing. But with aliens.
I kinda figure if Thaddeus Ross is going to be President of the United States I wonder if Rhodey is becoming the secretary of defense in his place.
That was Ben Mendelssohn not Martin freeman

Emilia is playing Talos's daughter. Or say they reported this past week.
Olivia is in MCU now?!
Growing skrulls? I thought they had to keep the original subject alive when they impersonated someone.
she's playing Quake
No she’s not. Her character has been confirmed as Talos’ daughter
That was Talos, not Martin Freeman. That lab of people are how the skrulls look when they die.
Talos showing his green skrull self is a spoiler?..... just tell me you didn't see Captain Marvel.... 😅
