Former Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke is said to be in talks to join the new MCU project Secret Invasion.
The Disney+ series is centred around Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury and will also star Ben Mendelsohn and Kingsley Ben-Adir, while Olivia Colman is also thought to be in line for a key role.
According to Variety, Clarke is already in "final negotiations" about joining the cast ahead of filming starting in a few months' time.
Details of Clarke's role, nor that of Colman, have not yet been revealed - although given the calibre of both actresses, the parts are likely to have potential to carry on over into future big-screen Marvel movies.
Coincidentally, Clarke has just released her own comic book series, M.O.M.: Mother of Madness, centred around a single mother who discovers she has superhero powers.
Secret Invasion is due for release on Disney+ in 2022.
