10 Big Questions From Captain Marvel Trailer

3. Is This The Scene Where Nick Fury Loses His Eye?

This fleeting shot shows Nick Fury holding an ice pack to his face, specifically the left portion of it, which might suggest Fury has just sustained the famous injury which caused him to lose sight in his left eye.

What else does the scene tell us? An alien creature, most likely a Skrull, is apparently being autopsied, and on the right of the frame we can see Talos, who is in disguise as Fury's stuffed-shirt boss.

We know that Fury loses his eye because he trusted the wrong person, so could this be the fallout of that moment? Then again, the MCU has a history of trolling fans with fake trailer shots intended to provoke debate, so this could easily have been cobbled together solely for the trailer.

Plus, it's hard to imagine Marvel Studios giving away even a hint of such a pivotal moment for free.
