Jackson will see the MCU debut of Emilia Clarke whose character remains a huge mystery. Not even the official trailer offered hints regarding the character she plays although speculation has been running high since her casting was announced that she is playing the Skrull Queen. However, it looks like that isn’t the case as the folks over at Disney themselves may have spoiled her true role.The official Secret Invasion page on the GIF-sharing site Tenor lists the Star Wars and Game of Thrones actress as Abigail Brand, a character a lot of fans have been dying to see in the billion-dollar franchise. In the comics, Brand is the director of SWORD, a subdivision of SHIELD that made its debut in WandaVision that handles extraterrestrial threats.
