If you saw Sam Jackson’s cameo as Nick Fury at the end of Iron Man then you know he looks like a total badass. That doesn’t however, mean he actually is a total badass. Jackson tells MTV that though he returns in Iron Man 2, he won’t engage in bad guy fighting any time soon.
Sam says, “We still haven’t moved Nick Fury into the bad-ass zone. He’s still just kind of a talker.” At best, it won’t be until the eventual Avengers team-up movie that the S.H.E.I.L.D. agent will start kicking ass. He will at least have something more than the brief cameo he had in the last film. He’s already shot multiple scenes with Robert Downey Jr. and even a few with Scarlett Johansson who plays Black Widow in the Iron Man sequel.
