The Assembled special tees up The Marvels, the studio’s next movie, and the direct sequel to Captain Marvel, by giving some insight into the Secret Invasion series.

“I’m going to miss this one; I’m going to miss it a lot,” Mendelsohn said. “I’m going to miss the degree to which this is in people’s hearts. I’m going the people that a lot of the audience don’t see, who make up the real experience and what it is to do these things — people I work with every day. And I’m going to miss being on-set with Sam.”
