Television SECRET INVASION (Premieres June 21, 2023)

Movies can say fuck and still be PG-13 as long as it is said with some kind of U.K. or Australian accent iirc

I thought you were allowed to drop a single F-Bomb and still retain PG13 rating.
 
@KnightTemplar Look again. Norman Osborne 100% guaranteed!
Sorry, bro. You forgot to include the headline.

Oscar nominee Olivia Colman is heading into the Marvel Universe. Colman, who is nominated for the best supporting actress Academy Award for her role in the British drama The Father, is in negotiations to join Secret Invasion, Marvel Studios' next series.

The show uses the events of Marvel’s Captain Marvel movie as a launching pad and focuses on the ever-popular secret agent Nick Fury, played by a returning Samuel L. Jackson, and a shapeshifter from the alien race known as the Skrulls (Ben Mendelsohn, reprising his role from the feature).

Plot details are being kept under wraps but an infiltration of Skrulls on Earth figures into the proceedings. It is unclear who Colman would play. The cast also includes One Night in Miami breakout Kingsley Ben-Adir as the likely villain.

Directors are being lined up for the job and Kyle Bradstreet, who worked on the acclaimed cyber thriller series Mr. Robot, is writing and executive producing Invasion.

Colman won an Oscar for her work opposite Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz in 2018’s The Favourite in a part that landed her numerous other plaudits. Her regal work as Queen Elizabeth II in Netflix’s The Crown also earned her considerable raves. She will next be heard in Sony Pictures Animation’s The Mitchells vs the Machines. She is one of the voicestars in the Phil Lord-Chris Miller-produced feature set in a robot apocalypse.

she was outstanding in Broadchurch.
 
I remember Olivia from PeepShow, she played an insufferable B*tch really well
 
She was funny in Hot Fuzz:) There's a scene where she's a village fete with the rest of the Sandford coppers. She looks at a pig being roasted on a spit and says,

"That's me after two pints"<Lmaoo><45>
