Endgame was not the End
Marvel’s blockbuster film Avengers: Endgame marked the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Or so people thought. Not long after the release of the last movie, Marvel announced a long list of television series that would throw Marvel fans back into the MCU. The series would see many of the Marvel movies’ leading characters, such as Loki and Scarlet Witch, getting their own spotlight. And it seems that Nick Fury is going to be on that list.
Nick Fury TV Series Coming to Disney Plus
Samuel L. Jackson will be back in Nick Fury that will be starring Marvel’s famous spy. The TV series is set to air on Disney Plus and its writer and executive producer is said to be Kyle Bradstreet (Mr. Robot). The project is still in its early stages, but fans can get ready to see more of their favourite agent.
