Samuel L. Jackson tell Nick Fury is n’t inBlack Widow , as far as he know . As one of the original characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe , Fury is for the most part responsible for for everything that add up after his first appearance in the post - credits fit ofIron human . He build S.H.I.E.L.D. up to be a top - tier intelligence agency , started the Avengers Initiative and recruited Tony Stark and Steve Rogers to his grounds .
As the MCU has continued to produce , Fury ’s connections with the larger universe and its role have expanded . For instance , Captain Marvelshowed how he came to memorise about the intergalactic threats that could attack Earth and to the world of superheroes . Jackson has racked up multiple MCU appearance through it all and could keep popping up in motion-picture show set in the present day , but also prequels , likeBlack Widow .

During an interview withComics Explained , Jackson was asked who his favorite Avenger is . He let out that it is Scarlett Johansson ’s Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow . But , during his answer to why she is his favorite , Jackson states that , so far , Fury is not set to be in theBlack Widowsolo movie .
It ’s Natasha who was always been my favorite because I recruited her . So far , I ’m not in her origin story film [ Laughs ] . She ’s the someone I was closest to in that group .
The vital part of his solvent here is how he prefaces it with " so far . " Marvel Studios operate typically in clandestine , but they have so far not officially announce any of their plans for Phase 4 . This include Johansson ’s long - awaited asterisk vehicle that iscurrently filming . As part of this silence , Marvel has a well - documented story of calling actors into projects late in the game or at a moment ’s notification . This could lead to Jackson fix one of these calls , giving him a purpose in the movie of his favorite Avenger .
On that note , though , Jackson ’s reasoning for why Black Widow is his best-loved Avenger is foreign . He say that she is his favorite because Fury enrol her , but that is not what we know from the movies . Natasha explain inThe Avengersthat Clint Barton aka Hawkeye was sent to kill her ( likely on orders from Fury ) several years back , but he made the call to part with her life and raise her to S.H.I.E.L.D. or else . This could be Jackson misspeaking on the topic , but it could also potentially hint that Fury always want Natasha enlisted and not killed . Barton is not a ruthless killer ( at least not at this time ) , so Fury could ’ve have a go at it that he would spare her life and send him on the mission for that specific understanding .
Regardless , it is difficult to say if there is a place for Fury in theBlack Widowsolo movie . The pic has to be a prequel base on her death inAvengers : Endgame , but we do n’t know the precise place setting for it . Recent set photosindicate that it could be position post - Captain America : Civil Warand beforeAvengers : Infinity Warwhile Natasha is on the campaign and in hiding . Fury ’s whereabouts during this time have yet to be explore though , give Marvel an easygoing way of life to contain him inBlack Widowif they desire .
