The Walt Disney Co. keeps racking up flops, the latest being the new Disney+ Marvel series Secret Invasion, with Samuel L. Jackson reprising his role as Nick Fury.
Secret Invasion managed to draw just 994,000 U.S. households in its first five days of release, according to estimates announced by streaming analytics firm Samba TV. That makes it the second-lowest rated Marvel series after the feminist Ms. Marvel, which drew 775,000 households over a similar period.

Loki reportedly remains Marvel’s top-rated Disney+ series, with 2.5 million households during its debut week.
The failure of Secret Invasion represents a surprising setback for Disney since the show features established Marvel characters as well as famous actors — in addition to Samuel L. Jackson, the series includes Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, as well as Olivia Colman, Don Cheadle, and Ben Mendelsohn.
