Although Iron Man was the first installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it functioned as a standalone superhero movie for the most part. It wasn't until the post-credits scene that Tony Stark theoretical from Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury that he was part of a much augmented universe, and the defense Jackson was skilled to score that role was because he theoretical that he'd been the model for a credit of Fury in the comics.
The native Nick Fury, i.e. the one from the main Marvel Comics universe, Earth 616, is a white man, but in the Ultimate universe continuity, which launched in 2000, he's a black man who looks just afterward Samuel L. Jackson. That wasn't initially the case, but afterward writer Mark Millar began penning The Ultimates limited series in 2002, he arranged to model Fury after Jackson, who was his favorite actor. As Millar told THR, he had no idea that Jackson was a comic stamp album fan, and after seeing his empathy to the side of these Marvel heroes, the actor called stirring his agents, who got in be adjacent to afterward Marvel. The company apologized and promised to count up Jackson in progressive movie adaptations, should they even be made.
The rest, as they say, is history. Three years after Ultimate Nick Fury got his Samuel L. Jackson look, Marvel began planning to independently fabricate its own movies, hence allowing for more creative control. hence Marvel Studios was born, and three years after that, Iron Man came out as its first movie. In the firm minute of Tony Stark's heritage story, there Samuel L. Jackson was wearing the eye patch and looking afterward Ultimate Nick Fury had jumped straight from the printed page into real life.
Now Nick Fury, afterward every additional atmosphere in the MCU, is more renowned than ever. In fact, as a outcome of the general public knowing Samuel L. Jackson as Fury, this journey has now afterward full circle and affected the comics. A few years back, the native Nick Fury in the Earth 616 continuity became a cosmic figure called The Unseen. His son, Nick Fury Jr. (originally known as Marcus Johnson) was brought in to occupy in his dad's area at S.H.I.E.L.D., and he with bears a strong empathy to Jackson. Of course, this is just one of the many ways how the MCU's carrying out has impacted how the Marvel Comics mythology exceeding the last decade, from additional characters' looks/backgrounds visceral altered to the Infinity gems now visceral called Infinity Stones.
Although we now know Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury as one of the MCU's main connective threads, that wasn't always the plot for his character. Iron Man director Jon Favreau noted how the movie's post-credits scene was conceived as a fun Easter egg that wasn't originally in the script, and previously Jackson and Marvel already had that prior arrangement, this was a good opportunity to bring him in. As many of you reading can likely recall by heart, Fury broke into Stark's mansion to notify him that he wasn't the by yourself superhero in the world and talk afterward him nearly the Avengers Initiative.
But Nick Fury became much more than a easy Easter egg. Both he and fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Phil Coulson were the glue that tied together the Phase 1 MCU movies, which culminated afterward 2012's The Avengers. Fury progressive had a prominent role in 2014's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which maxim S.H.I.E.L.D. collapsing (on the big screen at least) and Nick Fury having to behave his death to resume his covert spy operations. He next returned for Avengers: Age of Ultron to have enough money some words of insight for Earth's Mightiest Heroes and back up them evacuate Sokovian citizens during Ultron's attack.
That was the last we heard of Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury until last year, afterward he and his second-in-command, Maria Hill, appeared in Avengers: Infinity War's post-credits scene. sadly for those two, they were in the midst of the half of the universe that was wiped out by Thanos' Decimation, but previously he turned to dust, Fury successfully transmitted a signal from a spruced-up pager displaying the Captain Marvel insignia.
This was a tease to the upcoming Captain Marvel movie, which will bow to area in 1995 and look Nick Fury crossing paths afterward Carol Danvers, i.e. his first contact afterward a superhero. MCU fans are used to Fury as visceral a badass spy afterward a lot of secrets, the younger Fury is a low-level commissioner at S.H.I.E.L.D. who believes the best days of his career are in back him, but on meeting Carol and seeing aliens, he'll bow to his first steps all along the passageway that will guide to him forming the Avengers. It's with been declared that Captain Marvel will indeed behave how Fury free his eye, which, as he told Steve Rogers in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, happened because of misplaced trust in someone.
While it remains to be seen if the gift hours of daylight Nick Fury will appear inAvengers: Endgame, those anxious nearly his fate needn't bother any longer, as both he and Maria Hill are declared to behave stirring in Spider-Man: far-off From house this summer, afterward Fury tasking Quentin Beck, a.k.a. Mysterio, to back up the Web-Slinger fight the Elementals.
As for the future, even though Samuel L. Jackson's current nine-picture concurrence afterward Marvel is now finished, he doesn't desire to retire from playing Nick Fury anytime soon, even maxim that he could be "the Alec Guinness of Marvel movies." Jackson fetches a heavier price than he did afterward he cameoed in Iron Man more than a decade ago, but if Marvel Studios can think of additional ways to use Fury, perhaps plopping all along that additional cash will be worth it.
You can look a two-eyed Nick Fury aid Carol Danvers afterward Captain Marvel is released in theaters on March 8, hence stay tuned to CinemaBlend for continuing coverage on that movie and the descend of the MCU.
