CAPTAIN MARVEL: Samuel L. Jackson Reveals Some Surprising Details About Nick Fury's Role

Samuel L. Jackson has shed some light on what we should expect to see from Nick Fury in Captain Marvel, dropped some surprising hints about a very different take on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Director...

While we have no idea whether or not we'll see Nick Fury in Avengers: Infinity War and/or Avengers 4, it's been confirmed for a while that the former S.H.I.E.L.D. Director will make an appearance in the 90s set Captain Marvel. That obviously means a very different take on the character is on the way and that we're going to see the spy with both of his eyes (and presumably learn how he lost one of them)

Asked about his role in the highly anticipated Marvel Studios movie, Samuel L. Jackson says, "We’re going back now, and I meet Captain Marvel in more of an origin story. You’ll see Nick Fury with another guy’s face, somebody that’s got two eyes, so that’s a whole big deal. You’ll see. It’s prior to the eye injury, no eye patch." Another face? What could he possibly be talking about? Well, his comic book counterpart has been known to use tech to change his appearance so that's a possibility. 

It could also be a reference to Fury being a Skrull but it's actually far more likely that he's just referring to the hero looking much different now that he has two eyes instead of just the one of them.

"It’ll be easier to learn my lines. It’s one of those weird kind of things," Jackson said of having two eyes. "The first day I shot as Nick Fury with one eye, I couldn’t remember my lines. I was tired since we were coming from somewhere, so I thought it was fatigue. Then I realized I had learned my lines with two eyes. So, I had to start blocking my eye to learn my lines. It’s a stupid kind of thing, but it totally worked." Are you excited to see him in Captain Marvel? Let us know in the comments section.

I always thought that it was an interesting detail for the MCU to keep the scar pattern from Ultimate Fury (which was caused by Wolverine)

@DukeSimian - Yeah. Though if we're getting into his injury here there's no way with the rights issue that Wolverine would be the one to do it.

Captain Marvel might be "the last time I trusted someone, I lost an eye" for Nick Fury.

Don't know about the rest of you, but I love SLJ as Fury.

When you realize Nick Fury saying "You kiss your mother with that mouth?" is the closest thing to Samuel L. Jackson saying "mother[frick]er" in the MCU

Nick Fury would have to have a mentor in this movie. One of the men who helped found S.H.I.E.L.D.

Code name: Fury
