Samuel L. Jackson inks deal to play Nick Fury in 'Iron Man 2'...and possibly beyond

Marvel has agreed to a long-term pact with Samuel L. Jackson for the actor to play Nick Fury in Iron Man 2 and, possibly, other projects in the future, several outlets are reporting. Jackson cameoed as Fury at the very end of 2008’s Iron Man, but there had been speculation that he wouldn’t necessarily reprise the role in future films. As the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., Fury pops up in a number of Marvel comics, meaning that the studio could now have at least one major casting decision taken care of for many of its upcoming movies.
