10 More Movies With Ridiculously Subtle Foreshadowing
10. Nick Fury's Earth Line Hints At The Skrull Within - Spider-Man: Far From Home
It was eventually revealed in the end credits scene that followed J. Jonah Jameson's "Peter Parker" mic drop that the Nick Fury fans had been watching throughout Spider-Man: Far From Home was actually the Skrull Talos all along.
Unbeknownst to MCU lovers, the one-time Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. had been off-world since the end of Avengers: Endgame.
However, there was a rather brilliant clue that hinted at this not being the real Fury on-screen during the events of the second solo Spidey MCU outing.
Back when Parker meets Quentin Beck for the first time in Venice inside a secret base, the young Avenger is informed by Fury that Mysterio apparently isn't actually from his world. But it's the way the eye-patched icon delivers that revelation that acts as a subtle piece of foreshadowing.
His line of, "Mr. Beck is from Earth, just not yours," may not have felt that weird during a first watch. However, the fact Fury didn't opt for the word "ours" when talking about this spinning ball of chaos suggested pretty early on that this wasn't actually the bloke who brought the Avengers together at all.
It was a Talos who accidentally forgot who he was pretending to be for the briefest of moments.
