Jackson as in the Ultimate Marvel comics and the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies.

In the episode "Wolverine vs. The Hulk", he uses his connections to call off the Mutant Response Division's attack on Wolverine who he persuaded to head to Canada to deal with the Hulk by mentioning that he obtained info on who each of the X-Men are. After Wolverine and Hulk defeated the Wendigoes, Wolverine scolds Fury about the Wendigoes being part of an attempt at a super-soldier program.

Film

Live-action

* In the audio commentary of '' Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer'', director Tim Story said the script originally contained Nick Fury, but the role eventually became that of General Hager (played by Andre Braugher), as having Nick Fury would have forced Fox to purchase that character's rights; some of Hager's lines in the film originate from Nick Fury in '' Ultimate Extinction''.

However, he continued to portray the character in '' Avengers: Endgame'' and '' Spider-Man: Far From Home''. Additionally, Jackson reprises his role in guest appearances in two episodes of ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' and will reprise the role in the Disney+ series '' What If...?'' and ''Secret Invasion''. In August 2020, actor Jeff Ward revealed that ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' series writer DJ Doyle had pitched a post-credits scene for the ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' series finale that was not shot, that featured Ward's character Deke Shaw (introduced in the fifth season) sitting in a S.H.I.E.L.D. office in the alternate timeline he ends the series trapped in, serving as the organization's Director and wearing an eye patch. Ward added, since it was unclear if the alternate timeline's Nick Fury was still alive in the alternate timeline following the events of the seventh season, Deke would have worn it because it felt like "a power and cool thing", with Deke ultimately serving as a partial adaptation of the original version of the character.
