Samuel L. Jackson‘s sneaky Instagram post has confirmed that Marvel Studios has begun filming for the Secret Invasion. The 72-year-old Hollywood legend first made his appearance as the SHIELD director Nick Fury in the very first Marvel Cinematic Universe’s film Iron Man way back in 2008.

Post that he has made 11 separate appearances in the franchise’s 25 films and he has achieved it all! He assembled Earth’s mightiest heroes and even befriended Carol Davers in Captain Marvel. Nick Fury was last spotted in the post-credits scene of Spider-Man: Far From Home and it was revealed that he has been secretly working in space with the Skrulls while Skrull ally Talos has masqueraded as the SHIELD Agent back on the Earth.

Nick Fury will return in Marvel’s Secret Invasion which will be a miniseries on Disney+ based on a story arch from the comics.

Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn will once again pair up to play the duo of Fury and Talso against the rouge Skrull threat. According to the rumors, SWORD which is a more comic-based companion to SHIELD will also make an appearance. SWORD was actually first hinted at in Far From Home’s post-credits scene and was officially introduced in WandaVision.The series was announced back in December 2020 by Kevin Feige.

Jackson took Instagram to confirm that the filming for the Secret Invasion has officially started. In the picture, he was seen wearing a Nick Fury-themed t-shirt and he seems to be on the set or nearby the ongoing production. The t-shirt references Fury’s disappearance between Avengers: Infinity Wars and Avengers: Endgame as Half of the Earth’s population was wiped out by Thanos.
