At this year's San Diego Comic-Con, various upcoming flicks are expected to have a presence, with
Marvel's The Avengers considered especially. And while Marvel Studios topped other panels last year, bringing out the principal cast members, don't expect the
entire ensemble this year. Chatting with
Access Hollywood, actor Samuel L. Jackson, Nick Fury, Director of SHIELD, revealed he won't be attending the convention this time around.
“No, [I’m not going.] It’s not out until next year,” the actor told Access. “Look, everybody knows about it, everybody knows we’re doing it, everybody knows I’m Nick Fury. What else do I need to say about it other than it’s a big movie?!” Adding, “You’ll find out what it’s about as soon as we do.”
Surly, the footage that'll be presented at Comic-Con next month will make up for cast members' absence. However, despite Jackson not attending, this doesn't mean the other stars should be ruled out. With that said, what do you think?
Marvel's The Avengers picks up when an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security. And Nick Fury, director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster.
