Secret Invasion Stars Not Sad to Leave the MCU; Director Explains

Secret Invasion has now come to an end and, unfortunately, it has by no means turned out to be as successful a production as we had hoped. Moreover, the final episode is the lowest rated episode in the entire MCU history. As a result of the show's events, the universe had to say goodbye to Cobie Smulders and Ben Mendelsohn, whose characters, Maria Hill and Talos, have died.

As in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter the show's director, Ali Selim, reported that the actors did not balk at leaving the MCU. While we might suspect that such a reaction might have to do with the show not being well received by fans, the creator of Secret Invasion cites completely different reasons for the actors' reaction.

For the same reason, the departure from the MCU didn't particularly affect Ben Mendelsohn:

There is no denying that in the Marvel universe, indeed, almost nothing is impossible, and the death of a hero does not mean that he or she will no longer appear in the franchise. After all, thay can always return at least in the memories of the heroes who are left alive.

Recall that Marvel Cinematic Universe productions can be found on Disney+.
