Well, this is certainly the exciting Disney news I like to get at the start of the weekend! According to a piece just published in Variety, Samuel L. Jackson will be reprising his role as Marvel’s Nick Fury in a series currently under development for DIsney+. There are very few details regarding the project however we do know that Jackson is attached to the project as is Kyle Bradstreet who has signed to executive produce.
As with the majority of Marvel projects, Disney Plus and Marvel Studios will produce the series.
For those following along with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you’ll know that Jackson has a huge fandom for his portrayal of Fury, the head of the secret government agency S.H.I.E.L.D. This role goes all the way back to his post-credits scene in 2008’s Iron Man. Since then he has appeared in several films within the MCU including Spider-Man: Far From Home, Avengers: Endgame, and Captain Marvel.
Jackson also played the title character in ABC series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. SPOILER: Now for those keep tabs on the character of Nick Fury, you’ll know that last time we saw him was in the post-credit scenes for Spider-Man: Far From Home where he was onboard a Skrull ship in deep space!?
If the project does make it to series it would be the latest in a series of awesome Marvel-focused projects heading to Disney’s streaming networks. Other series on the horizon includes WandaVision, The Falcon and Winter Soldier and Loki.
