When it comes to iconic characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Nick Fury is a name that resonates with fans all over the world. A central figure in the MCU, he has shaped most if not all of Earth’s mightiest heroes. Whether you're a fan eagerly anticipating his appearance in Secret Invasion on Disney+ Hotstar premiering on June 21, or a curious viewer intrigued by the mastermind behind the Avengers, here are five things you should know about Nick Fury.
FORMER S.H.I.E.L.D DIRECTOR
Nick Fury ran The Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D.) with the World Security Council where he dealt with the significant rise in enhanced individuals, dangerous advanced technology, and alien contact. As the former head of this covert intelligence agency, Fury has always been operating behind the scenes, orchestrating complex operations and mobilising resources to protect the world from various threats.
HE FORMED THE AVENGERS INITIATIVE
After meeting Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, Fury realised that the entirety of Earth's resources were insufficient for safeguarding the planet, particularly in the face of intergalactic perils. As a result, he established “The Avengers Initiative” formerly known as "The Protector Initiative", a group consisting of the earth’s mightiest heroes meant to protect everyone.
MARIA HILL IS HIS BEST AGENT AND FRIEND
Maria Hill has always been a constant in Fury’s life. The former Deputy Director and Commander of S.H.I.E.L.D, she was appointed by Nick Fury as his right-hand man. Not only did Hill oversee the Avengers Initiative and the resurrection of Phil Coulson, she eventually helped fake Fury's death when he was attacked by HYDRA, and worked alongside Captain America, Black Widow and Falcon to expose HYDRA's existence and terminate Project Insight.
Her unwavering loyalty, trustworthiness, and shared dedication to their cause makes her one of his best agents. As his friend, she consistently demonstrates a deep understanding of Fury's intentions, thoughts, and motivations.
NICK FURY IS NO STRANGER TO BETRAYAL
His trust has been shattered on multiple occasions, most notably by his own comrade-in-arms, Alexander Pierce, whose true allegiance as a Hydra agent was a devastating blow. Under Pierce’s command, an assassination attempt on Fury was carried out. In a world teeming with treachery, Fury's resilience proves that even in the face of betrayal, he remains a formidable force to be reckoned with.
THE ORIGINS OF THE EYE-PATCH
Nick Fury's trademark black leather eye-patch has long captivated Marvel fans. For years, fans speculated and theorised the story behind it. In 2019's Captain Marvel, it was revealed that Fury lost his eye due to an unexpected scratch from the mischievous feline, Goose, a Flerken which is an alien species brought to Earth by Mar-Vell.
