Nicholas Joseph Fury is a fictional character portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. Fury is depicted as the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and enacts the Avengers Initiative after encountering Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers and the Skrulls, while also learning of extraterrestrial threats such as the Kree. Fury assists his assembled team as they battle a range of threats, including Loki, the Winter Soldier, and Ultron. He later assists Captain America in taking down S.H.I.E.L.D., after it is found to be compromised by the terrorist organisation Hydra. He fakes his death and hands over directorship to a resurrected Agent Phil Coulson. After falling victim to the Blip and being restored to life, Fury dedicates his time to developing the aerospace defense space station, S.A.B.E.R. He is later called back to Earth to stop an invasion of rogue Skrulls, before returning to S.A.B.E.R. Fury and S.A.B.E.R. then investigate an outer space anomaly with S.A.B.E.R. agent Monica Rambeau, Danvers, and the young vigilante Kamala Khan, and they work together to defeat the Kree Supremor Dar-Benn. Prior to the formation of the MCU, Marvel Comics incorporated Jackson's likeness into the reimagined design of the character for The Ultimates (2002). As of 2025, Jackson has gone on to portray Fury in twelve MCU films, beginning with an appearance in the post-credits scene of Iron Man (2008). He also appeared in two episodes of the television series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013–2014) and starred as the protagonist of the Disney+ miniseries Secret Invasion (2023). Alternate versions of the character appear in the Disney+ animated series What If...? (2021–2024), with Jackson reprising the role. Jackson has received critical and fan acclaim for his role.
