The back story
To theorize the Marvel Studios Secret Invasion story, we need to travel back to 2008’s limited, comic book of the same by Brian Michael Bendis. In the storyline, there was an invasion of planet Earth by evil Skrulls, the alien shapeshifters we first met in the MCU through Captain Marvel (2019). In that movie, they were represented as unexplainable villains but later there was a twist that revealed that those Skrulls were refugees who were looking for shelter from the warmongering Kree Empire.
Now when we are talking about entire alien species, we are traveling back to view the wicked side of their collapsing civilization. Since the events of Captain Marvel, Nick Fury has had Skrull operatives working for him in disguise across the Earth, living peacefully among humanity with a promise that Fury will help them find a new home.
The marvelous show will see these Skrull operatives fighting back after Fury’s plan to relocate them fails for too long.
