During San Diego Comic-Con 2022, Disney suffered a minor mishap. The Secret Invasion cast list, which includes Cobie Smulders, Samuel L. Jackson, Olivia Colman, Emilia Clarke, and more, was included in an email provided to the press summarizing the material from Marvel’s Hall H panel on Saturday, July 23. However, Disney later clarified that Page is not a member of Secret Invasion. His name was accidentally omitted off the list.

TVLine contacted to a Disney spokesman who said Page’s inclusion on the cast list was an error. ‘Secret Invasion’ will premiere on Disney+ in Spring 2023,’ said the press statement. This time around, Maria Hill’s loyal second-in-command was on hand to discuss about the new program with Cobie Smulders who reprises her role. A preview of what’s to come was revealed to the delight of the audience.

It stars Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, who first met Ben Mendelsohn as the Skrull Talos in Captain Marvel. Kingsley Ben-Adir, Emilia Clarke, Olivia Colman, and Regé-Jean Page round out the cast.
