Why Captain Marvel Is Going To Be A Very Different MCU Movie

6. Nick Fury Will Have Both His Eyes

It's been a little while since we last saw Samuel L. Jackson in the MCU, with his last appearance coming in 2015's Age of Ultron. And while the character is billed for a return in next year's Infinity War, it's his appearance in Captain Marvel that we're most stoked about.

Given the setting of the film, fans will be receiving their first look at the character before he took over at S.H.I.E.L.D., and indeed, before he started sporting that snazzy eyepatch too. It's a premise for a story that not many people would've considered at first. But, given the character's already mysterious and indeed checkered past, it's a story no less worth telling. If it's taking a backseat to the rest of Captain Marvel's plot, then you can begin to imagine the scale of the narrative that Boden and Fleck are crafting.

It's always great to see Fury when he pops up, and given how he's always been great at making introductions to the MCU, there's a great precedent for Danvers to follow.
