Time To Play GUESS! THAT! SKURLL!

[DragonsChi]

With Marvel's Cinematic Universe headed further into the stars it is only a matter of time before we receive a movie or movies about the Skrull Invasion! One of Marvel's most rememberable events in recent years. Due to this I thought it would be fun to predict who is/has/or even will be replaced by a Skrull now with my favorite Marvel Comics CBR frequent visitors.



The idea is to talk, debate, and give reason on who may potentially be a Skrull in disguise. This is suppose to be fun exercise so please keep it civil. Also, any Factual Information about movies that have not come out yet or have only been in theaters for two months please use SPOILER TAGS to not ruin it for others. Also, if you think someone is a Skrull or will be one please give a reason why.

I will be placing my top 8 guess later today. HAVE FUN!


Edit: Keep in mind that you can pick characters from the TV universe as well. I have a couple from there of my own.

[XPac]

I'm guessing Ross. Real Ross should be a lot funnier. Skulls replace him so he can both limit the hero community and get a foothold in Wakanda.

If they reveal skulls in the MCU, I'm pretty sure they'd throw a few in Agents of SHIELD too (assuming the show is still around).

Wouldn't be shocked if we found one in Runaways too.

Oh, that is a very good guess. He wasn't on my list before but now he is. Didn't even think of him. Up to 9 now.

Eh....we all know that Agents of Shield piggy backs off of everything the Marvel Movies do. Now that they are in Space it going to happen, besides "It's all connected" right? My guess for the AOS is either Fits or Jemma as a future prediction. I'll give my reasons why later.

[Captain M]

I feel like they'll be unaffected. Skrulls will be CGI heavy species that'll require a movie budget CGI, make-up and costumes. Can they make them look same as the movies? We don't know the extend of what the TV shows can do. I doubt Feige would be okay with a tv show using skrulls half-assed.

[SpiderClops]

That's the wrong Spider-Man up there.

[KOSLOX]

Spider-Man would be a good way to write him out of the MCU if Sony ever sells the property to another studio.

[Matternativ]

I think Fury being a Skrull would have the biggest impact. So that's who I'll vote for.

[Captain M]

Fury and Hill showing up in Captain Marvel puts good targets on their backs.

[Chainsaw Vigilante]

It's Pikachu!

The movies had no problem with AOS messing with Kree mythology, and they messed with it A LOT, even introducing some concepts the movies didn't. And I don't think Skrull makeup and CGI is all that complex. Green paint, pointy years and some wrinkles on their chin is not rocket science. As for the CGI, it would probably be used for when they are shapeshifting, but come on, even The CW does that decently with Martian Manhunter. And even if the movie Skrulls were these super complex looking characters, making all of them look the same is not necessarily an obligation. AOS has shown us that not all Kree look the same; there are different shades of blue and some of them have these details on their faces others don't. So why should all Skrulls look the same, specially considering they are literally able to make themselves look like anything?

I don't know if the TV shows will be affected or not, but I don't think the general concept of a Skrull is completely banned either if their stories ask for it and whatever context they use doesn't directly contradict any narrative established by the movies.

[Reviresco]

An interesting exercise. I'll have to think on this ... though, for some reason, my mind went immediately to GROOT!

It's because you won't be seeing Kree in the movies in prominence or at all anytime soon again. Surely you watched GotG vol. 2? I don't think you realize what you said supports my side of the argument.
I guess if Skrulls are one and done thing in movies, then maybe they can introduce them in the shows too. But I doubt that's the case. :/

[Tiamatty]

I'm guessing Rhodey. I spotted some slight differences in him from Iron Man 1, into the rest of the movies. Very suspicious, if you ask me.
