Samuel L. Jackson Talks Nick Fury in Secret Invasion:
Secret Invasion sees the return of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury as he deals with an invasion of Skrulls, the aliens that were first introduced in the MCU in Captain Marvel. Jackson has been a staple in the franchise ever since he appeared as Fury in the post-credit scene of Iron Man back in 2008. He has gone on to appear in many MCU projects and was last seen in space in the post-credit scene of Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, things are very different for Fury this time around.
“He just doesn’t wear the patch. The patch is part of who the strong Nick Fury was,” Jackson explained to Vanity Fair. “It’s part of his vulnerability now. You can look at it and see he’s not this perfectly indestructible person. He doesn’t feel like that guy.”
“Even Nick Fury can be shaken, you know?” Jackson teased. “He’s up there trying to process what the fuck happened, you know? And what his place in the world is,” he added. “The death of Iron Man, the death of Black Widow, with that stuff going on he just kind of checked out.”
