Classic MCU character will finally return in Fantastic Four, reports say

As a seasoned Marvel enthusiast with over two decades of comic book history under my belt, the Multiverse Saga has truly taken the cinematic universe to new heights. From the nostalgic return of Maguire’s Spider-Man to the long-awaited fusion of Deadpool and Wolverine, it seems Marvel Studios is only just getting started!


As a hardcore Marvel gamer, I can’t help but feel my heart racing with excitement as the Multiverse Saga unfolds! Marvel Studios has been bestowing upon us some mind-blowing moments within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Take, for instance, Patrick Stewart stepping back into the shoes of Professor X in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, or the return of both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Men in Spider-Man: No Way Home – it’s been a thrilling ride with endless opportunities!

In a recent development, we’ve noticed that even the latest entries like “Deadpool and Wolverine” have been groundbreaking, as they marked the initial introduction of these Fox/X-Men characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) for the first time. Next year, the franchise is set to repeat this feat with other cherished Marvel Comics characters in “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” which will be gracing our movie screens then.

It also sounds like it could feature one of the MCU’s longest-standing characters.

Nick Fury rumored to return in the MCU’s Fantastic Four movie

As an avid Marvel fan, I’m thrilled to share a tidbit from the latest scoop at Marvel Updates. It seems Nick Fury might make an appearance in “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”. The details are scarce, with no clear indication if it’s a minor cameo or a pivotal role. Yet, the prospect of Fury being there could potentially set off significant events across the Marvel Universe.

Ever since the appearance of Iron Man, Nick Fury has played a crucial role in binding the Marvel Cinematic Universe together. He was notably present in many key moments, especially during post-credits scenes at the start of the initial movies, working tirelessly to assemble The Avengers for the first time. Over time, he evolved into a trusted confidant whom they could rely upon when facing challenges. This dynamic continued until Fury himself needed assistance.

Well, considering it’s the Multiverse Saga, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Fury found a means to traverse different universes for recruitment purposes ahead of the Multiversal war against Doctor Doom. It’s plausible, given that the Fantastic Four cast has been confirmed for roles in both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. So, it’s reasonable to speculate whether Fury might be part of the crossover event between the MCU characters and the Fantastic Four.

In 2023, we last encountered Nick Fury, portrayed by Jackson, in the movie “The Marvels.” There, he assisted Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, and Photon in a battle against Dar Benn. Before that appearance, he made his television debut for the first time with the series “Secret Invasion,” where he was pitted against an army of Skrulls who aimed to eliminate humans and conquer Earth.

As a gaming enthusiast diving into the Multiverse Saga, I’ve noticed that my favorite character hasn’t quite fit into the narrative as smoothly as he did in the Infinity Saga. Could it be that his role could evolve into a multiversal recruiter to give him more prominence? On the other hand, perhaps a different Nick Fury variant will show up in this movie, or maybe it’s all just speculation that won’t make it to the final cut of the film. Only time will tell!

The Fantastic Four: First Steps arrives in movie theaters on July 25, 2025.
