Samuel L. Jackson may get his wish to return as Nick Fury in Untitled Avengers if a casting call for the movie is any indication.
If this is indeed for a photo double for Fury, it at the very least confirms that Fury will be involved in some capacity.
Even if he did know, though, Jackson may have been instructed to say he’s not in Avengers 4, as to not spoil anything.
Fury has been an instrumental character in the expansion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe from day 1, and as three Phases come to a close, many anticipated Fury to be present.
