Description

In The Ultimates #4 (2002), Marvel literally had Nick Fury say that Samuel L. Jackson should play him in a movie adaptation. The crazy part? Jackson actually saw the comic, contacted Marvel Comics, and instead of a lawsuit, they made a deal giving him first dibs on the role if Fury ever appeared on the big screen. Years later, that exact thing happened when Iron Man launched the Marvel Studios era with the legendary post-credit scene. One comic panel basically predicted one of the most iconic castings in superhero movie history. #marvel #mcu #nickfury #samuelljackson #ironman #theultimates #marvelcomics #avengers #robertdowneyjr #superhero #comicbooks #marvelstudios #moviedetails #didyouknow #moviemirrorbyavi
