AICN EXCLUSIVE! Guess Who’s Shooting His IRON MAN Role Today!!
Okay. This is a pretty big tidbit, and as far as I can tell, this is an exclusive. I haven’t seen any mention of this anywhere online, but it’s exciting news, and I have to share it with you guys.

Right now, if I had to wager on whether or not IRON MAN was going to be one of next summer’s big films, I’d say it will be. It seems like Jon Favreau has done everything right so far, and I’m hearing really exciting things about the action sequences and the casting, and I’ve been sold on Robert Downey Jr. since the moment he was announced.

Today, though, he’s shooting scenes featuring an actor who is a set-up for a larger Marvel continuity, and it’s exciting because I’m hoping this character can start showing up in other films, and we’ll start seeing Marvel Studios creating a larger world, one that exists outside the frames of the individual movies. This is a major step towards making that AVENGERS movie we’ve been hearing about. So who’s the actor? Who’s the character?

Sam Jackson. Nick Fury.

Count on it.

He even said himself that Sam Jackson should play himself in a movie version for The Ultimates.

Nick Fury better drop the MF bomb once or twice and start talking about snakes on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. :rofl:

Big fan of the old school Nick Fury of 616 but Samuel Jackson's a great actor and the Ultimate version is based on him so good choice. :tup:

There's a Captain America movie in development. Just about every major Marvel comic you can think of has a movie in development. They are making moves lol!

Nah, Dean Martin > David Hasselhoff when it comes to 616 Fury.

you guys know marvel movies are essentially just what-if stories right? theirs no real concept of continuity in these movies..hence its ok for sam jackson to be nick fury.

Despite Ultimates 1 and 2 being slow as hell, I will always thank heaven for Hitch, drawing Ultimate Fury as one of the iconic actors of our time. If this serious, I expect to see an Nick Fury movie out before long, followed quickly by 616 Fury becoming black.
