Marvel is clearly looking out for star power in their universe which is opposite to what they used to do. In the first first saga of the MCU, Marvel took lesser known actors and made them superstars. However, now they cannot get enough of superstars. For the Marvel reboot of the Fantastic Four they’re looking to bag Adam Driver, Margot Robbie or Jodie Comer, Denzel Washington and Paul Mescal. Another addition to the MCU’s star power came with Emilia Clarke’s inclusion in Secret Invasion. The series will release on Disney+ soon. Along with a new star, the series also has a returning MCU star- Samuel L. Jackson. After appearing in the MCU for so many years, it is a fair question to ask whether he will return to Nick Fury after Secret Invasion.
Secret Invasion: Will Samuel L. Jackson Return After In The MCU After The Series?
In a recent interview with Empire, Samuel L. Jackson revealed whether he will be back to play Nick Fury in the MCU, “I love playing him, and I love the fact that they’re opening him up to all these other possibilities and this whole life that he has. So hopefully I’m not done, and in this new phase of the MCU I’ll still be floating in and out of there somehow, some way.” He further revealed, “All those things are part of a Nick Fury that’s invulnerable. Here you have a guy who’s showing his face, and showing his age. It’s an opportunity to humanise someone that everybody thinks is superhuman.”
Jackson concluded with, “I had to figure out some stuff and work out some new things, which I’ve been trying to do for a while. It’s great to have an opportunity to find out who he was and delve into how much of a toll his job actually takes on his personal life.” This is Samuel L. Jackson’s 13th appearance in the MCU out of 14 total. Jackson has also taken the role of Executive Producer for the Disney+ series, making him the fifth actor to do so.
Secret Invasion will start streaming on Disney+ Hotstar from 21st June 2023.
