Samuel L. Jackson makes Marvel's SecretInvasion a potent new series on Disney+.

has been perhaps uniquely enriched by the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Headliners like Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson may come and go, but, as the indefatigable Avengers ringmaster Nick Fury, he sticks around, bringing both his talent at a certain portent and the star persona that preceded him into the role to bear. His performance is a backbeat across the franchise, but it’s, to this point, never emerged into the spotlight.,” Disney+’s new Marvel series, particularly potent for fans.

Here, Jackson’s Fury grows enmeshed in a drama involving the Skrulls attempting to take Earth by, first, subversively impersonating human beings. Aided by a Skrull who’s a friend to humanity , Fury attempts to hold together a cause that seems impossible, one in which the villains look just like us. Typical caveats apply: Viewers who missed the Brie Larson-led “Captain Marvel” will find themselves on Wikipedia playing catch-up, although the show does its best to situate viewers. And, as in the past, the visual spectacle that helps Marvel earn its name seems reserved for the silver screen. But there are, in the two episodes furnished to critics, moments of sparky energy that distinguish this show from the movies in a good way.

In its early going, “Secret Invasion” stands out for its willingness to go places, and its reticence to call attention to itself.
