10 Questions We Still Have About Avengers: Infinity War
6. Where Is Nick Fury?
Infinity War's cast list reads like a who's who of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but one name is strangely absent.
In many ways, Nick Fury should have been the first name on the list. He's the man who brought the Avengers together, a key adviser for the team and the glue that's bound them in the past.
Having him play a key role in the final battle against Thanos would allow Samuel L Jackson's one-eyed agent to finish what he started. So why is he absent, and where exactly is he in the Marvel Cinematic Universe these days?
Omitting him from Civil War kind of made sense since it would have been near impossible for him to choose a side, but Infinity War feels like the right time to bring him back into the fold.
Hopefully there's a good reason why the fans will have to wait until the '90s-set Captain Marvel to see Fury in action again, and they'll be keen to hear what that is.
