![]() It seems reasonable to assume that he’s in space with the Skrulls to do some work. ![]() He could have traveled somewhere discreet on Earth, or gone to New Asgard or wherever. Though we saw Nick Fury using the Skrull ship’s simulator to go on “vacation,” he probably didn’t travel across the galaxy and board the ship just to get some R&R. and Marvel Comics’ Secret Invasion story arc The Skrulls might be integral to S.W.O.R.D. ![]() ![]() But I also wouldn’t be surprised if Marvel is laying the foundation with some existing concepts from the comic books. I’d assume that Danvers, the Avenger who can zip around the galaxy the fastest and easiest, will play a role in his plans. Trusting Talos and Soren, who were grateful for Danvers’s help and have no ties to Hydra or any Earthling affairs, might have been Fury’s safest bet.Īnd now, with the reintroduction of Fury and his Skrull allies in Far From Home’s credits scene, the future of Marvel will involve explaining just what Fury is going to do next. Presumably - if Fury and the Skrulls hadn’t made contact since the ’90s, and Fury hadn’t used the amped-up pager that Danvers made for him between the events of Captain Marvel and the end-credits of Avengers: Infinity War - Fury and the Skrulls met up sometime after or at Tony Stark’s funeral (as Far From Home director Jon Watts has theorized), with Danvers updating him on the latest at that time.īut why Fury trusted Talos and Soren to take care of Earth while he was away isn’t explained.Īnd while there’s no definitive answer, the simplest one is that after the events of 2014’s Captain America: Winter Soldier in which Hydra’s infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D., he had no one left to trust but Maria Hill and the Avengers. What we don’t see is what exactly happened between Iron Man’s sacrifice in Endgame, Nick Fury (and everyone else who had been snapped away) coming back, and Fury’s decision to go on vacation with the Skrulls. Lots of Skrulls are milling about and presumably doing important and exciting space adventure things. Then, as the scene unfolds, the camera zooms out to show us that he’s on a very impressive spaceship (think Star Trek’s Enterprise or a Star Wars ship before it’s inevitably blown up) that may look familiar to comic book fans. The scene opens with Fury on what appears to be a Skrull spaceship, using a high-tech holographic simulator to pretend he’s on vacation. Spider-Man: Far From Home’s 2 end-credits scenes set up Marvel’s future Spider-Man: Far From Home, which takes place after the events of Endgame, showed us in one of its credits scenes that the Skrulls are now thriving. At the end of the movie, Carol Danvers decided she needed to help them find a home - and then went off into space for 20-something years before returning to Earth in Endgame, in the aftermath of Thanos’s snap. Initially, they were introduced as shape-shifting villains, but then, as the movie unfurled, we learned that they are actually shape-shifting refugees whom the Kree have been hunting down. This past March, Captain Marvel brought the Skrulls from the pages of Marvel’s comic books to the big screen. Here’s how: What have the Skrulls been doing for the past 20 years? Which means that Marvel could spend its next few movies unraveling the mystery behind Fury and the Skrulls. So the nearly 25-year gap between that film and the present-set Avengers: Infinity War and the present-set and 2024/2025-set (there’s a five-year time jump) Endgame in Marvel Cinematic History, combined with Fury’s secrecy, leaves open the possibility for all kinds of Skrull hijinks. The first time we ever saw the Skrulls onscreen in the MCU was in Captain Marvel, which is set in 1995. Like, just how long has Fury been on that spaceship? What would have happened if Mysterio defeated Spider-Man? Is this the first instance in which Fury swapped places with the Skrulls? Have the Skrulls been impersonating other people all this time? In an instant, everything we thought we knew about the movie is flipped on its head, and the scene invites us to call into question everything we think we know about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Talos and Soren are impersonating Maria Hill and Nick Fury on Earth, and the real Nick Fury is on what looks to be a Skrull spaceship. Jonah Jameson, there’s a massive reveal nestled into the dust after all the credits have rolled: As the movie’s second credits scene reveals, the Skrulls are thriving. ![]() After Spider-Man single-handedly saves London, after Mysterio’s death and defeat, after the mid-credits scene about J. Spider-Man: Far From Home’s bombshell moment comes at the last possible second of the movie. ![]()
