Where Does The Nick Fury-Led Series Fit In The MCU Timeline?

There are so many questions about the series. What is the future of newcomers like Emilia Clarke and Olivia Colman? Why did the Skrulls sit out the Thanos threat? But the question we want to know was posed to Feige. "It's present-day MCU," Feige said when asked where the series fits into the franchise. "It's what we're calling it. So it exists basically along the timeline of the shows. Post 'She-Hulk,' post blip. Right at this exact, present day in the MCU. That is all I can say."

The last sentence is a curious addition to the statement. It seems like a simple and straightforward answer, taking place in the here and now. Just saying that it happens present day is a complete answer. But the addition of the last sentence makes us think there is possibly more to the answer that could spoil something for the fans if he went deeper. Maybe the series takes place in multiple timelines, with flashbacks to Fury interacting with Skrulls over the years. Perhaps we see a future without Nick Fury, signaling this is it for the super spy.

Samuel L. Jackson can be heard asking Feige if that is an answer, which lends even more credit to the idea that there is more to the question of where this takes place. We will have to wait and see, but Feige and Jackson's coyness about the answer leads us to believe there is more to the timeline than is being presented.
