The U.K. prime minister, Pamela Lawton, appears in the finale episode of Secret Invasion. Here’s what happened to her in the episode 6 finale and what it could mean for future Marvel movies and TV shows.
Why was the U.K. prime minister shot in Secret Invasion episode 6?
The U.K. prime minister is shot in Secret Invasion episode 6 by a vigilante who thinks that she is a Skrull.
Following a speech by the U.S. president, vigilantes took up arms against prominent figures who had previously been replicated by Skrulls. This included the U.K. prime minister who, after being saved from the Skrull pods in Russia, returned to the U.K. There she was shot by a vigilante who believed that she was still a Skrull.
Is the U.K. prime minister a Skrull in Secret Invasion episode 6?
No, the U.K. prime minister is not a Skrull in Secret Invasion episode 6.
While the vigilante who shoots her believes that the U.K. prime minister is a Skrull, it’s clear that she is actually human.
Upon being shot, the prime minister bleeds red, which is clearly different from the green blood of a Skrull. What’s more, as she dies from the multiple gunshot wounds, she keeps her human appearance. Clearly, she is not a Skrull.
What will happen to the U.K. prime minister in the MCU?
The U.K. prime minster will be replaced by another person, who will likely appear in upcoming MCU movies and/or TV shows.
With the assassination of the U.K.’s leader following the U.S. president’s speech will no doubt lead to things being very tense between the two countries. Marvel fans can expect to see that tension explored in future MCU content.
