SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME Officially Recruits Samuel L. Jackson And Cobie Smulders
We sorta already knew that Nick Fury & his right-hand woman would be showing up in Spider-Man: Far From Home, but it's now been officially confirmed that Samuel L. Jackson and Cobie Smulders are on board.
There have been rumors that Samuel L. Jackson would be reprising the role of Nick Fury in Spider-Man: Far From Home for a while now, and the actor was recently spotted near the set of the sequel. Then, just last week, cast member Numan Acar seemingly confirmed that Cobie Smulders would be joining him as Maria Hill.
Well, Vulture has now made it official: both Jackson and Smulders will return as the former S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in Spidey's next solo adventure.
Last time we saw Fury and Hill they had ceased to exist thanks to Thanos' actions at the end of Avengers: Infinity War, so, spoiler alert, this obviously confirms that they will somehow return along with the rest of the heroes that vanished after "the snap."
The pair join Tom Holland as Peter Parker, along with returning cast members Zendaya, Michael Keaton, Marisa Tomei and Jacob Batalon. Jake Gyllenhaal will play the villainous Mysterio in the film, which is currently shooting in Europe.
