The actor became an international superstar with her stunning portrayal of Daenerys Targaryen and we\u2019re excited to see if she brings the same feistiness to the character of G\u2019iah.<\/p>\n
She plays a key role in the first episode of Secret Invasion, where she is introduced as a dangerous Skrull revolutionary seeking revenge for what she perceives as abandonment by Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson<\/a>).<\/p>\n If you\u2019re keen to know more about G\u2019iah \u2013 including where she has appeared before \u2013 read on for all the details we have so far.<\/p>\n G\u2019iah is the estranged daughter of Talos (Ben Mendelsohn), who was first introduced in the 2019 blockbuster Captain Marvel.<\/p>\n She can be spotted briefly towards the end of the film, where she appears as a young girl and is emotionally reunited with her father after facing persecution from the villainous Kree.<\/p>\n Of course, that film was a period piece taking place in the 1990s, which is why the G\u2019iah featured in Secret Invasion is a fully-grown adult \u2013 and her relationship with her parents has evolved considerably.<\/p>\n It is implied that she went on the run some time ago, having lost faith in her father\u2019s allegiance with humanity after both Fury and Carol Danvers failed to find them the new home they had once promised.<\/p> She was compelled to join revolutionary Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir), who is causing instability around the world by staging terrorist attacks and replacing certain people with Skrull imposters.<\/p>\n In the time she has been away from her family, her mother Soren (played by Sharon Blynn in Captain Marvel and Spider-Man: Far From Home) has sadly died. The news comes as a terrible shock when she reunites with her father.<\/p>\n Read more:\u00a0<\/strong>Meet the cast of Secret Invasion<\/a><\/p>\n Soren\u2019s final words to Talos were to find their daughter and reconcile. However, given that shocking Secret Invasion episode 1 ending<\/a>, it\u2019s unclear if that will be possible.<\/p>\n G\u2019iah has also appeared in the Marvel comic books, where she was introduced in 2019 limited series Meet the Skrulls, which had a similar premise to Cold War drama The Americans (i.e. spies masquerading as a suburban family).<\/p>\n Secret Invasion is available to stream on Disney Plus.
