Samuel L. Jackson puts on the patch and leather jacket for the sixth time as Nick Fury in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Jackson joins Chris Evans as Steve Rogers and Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow for the film based on the popular Ed Brubaker storyline.
Jackson tells USA Today we’ll see a different side of Fury in the sequel:
“You see Nick Fury the office guy, him going about the day-to-day work of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the politics as opposed to that other stuff. It’s great to have him dealing with Captain America in terms of being able to speak to him soldier to soldier and try to explain to him how the world has changed in another way while he was frozen in time. Some of the people who used to be our enemies are now our allies — him trying to figure out, “Well, how do we trust those guys?” or “How do we trust the guys that you didn’t trust who don’t trust you? And explaining to him that the black and white of good guys/bad guys has now turned into this gray area.
Nick lies to him all the time, too. (Laughs) But he’s trying to help him navigate the waters of the new sharks that he doesn’t know anything about.”
Robert Redford plays a SHIELD officer in Captain America: The Winter Soldier in April 2014. Jackson will be back as Fury in Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015.
