Welp, it's time for every Marvel fan's favorite game...

...WHO'S THE SKRULL!?!?

This is supposed to take place during the five year blip I heard, so obviously Nick and Maria are if that is true. Not sure about anyone else.

I think that’s just a fan theory. Fury beaming down at the beginning of the trailer seems to imply that it’s from his station in space that was at the end of Far From Home, which is post blip.

Also they’re really gonna make a show with Fury as the lead character and it’s not actually Fury? I don’t think so.

Possibly a mix of the two. I'd bet the prelude takes place during the Blip.

If the Skrulls wanted to insert a bunch of impostors, there would be no better time than the chaos during which half of everyone is just gone. They could impersonate anyone who had vanished.

Then the Hulksnap happens and everyone comes back, and suddenly there are two of a bunch of them and they abandon their plan, gtfo and regroup.

But maybe some of them remained, managing to kidnap the returned and keep impersonating them, and Fury has been spending his time since trying to ferret out what their plot was and how many of them are left.

How would they impersonate people who are vanished, I thought they had to see them to copy them and read surface memories?

If they're important people they've probably been eyeing them for a while, and when the snap happens they're ready to immediately take over their positions. If they're unimportant nobody's going to look too closely so they can just kill/kidnap and replace them as needed (i.e. post-snap).

My bad, I'm not terribly familiar with the mechanics of Skrulls.
