Ross, Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, and Emilia Clark as G’iah. The show will have a darker tone and Smulders went on to say what can be expected in the series.
“We’re going to get deeper into the characters. We’re going to see them in new ways, and it’s going to be an exciting thriller, and you’re never going to know who people are. Are they a Skrull? Are they a human? It’s going to be a bit of a guessing game.”Cobie Smulders said.
She stated that the show is a thriller of sorts and characters will be flushed out quite more. We will see them in different types of situations and the shapeshifting Skrulls will make trusting any character quite difficult.
