(We’ve received a serious spoiler for “Spider-Man: Far From Home” in right here, together with the total particulars of the post-credits scene)
Yes, “Spider-Man: Far From Home” is generally centered on Peter Parker (Tom Holland) and his makes an attempt to determine what his place on this planet is after the insanity of the occasions of “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Endgame.” But in a approach that is simply as a lot Nick Fury’s (Samuel L Jackson) film, as Fury finds himself in simply as complicated a scenario given he’s the one who assembled the Avengers and now it actually kinda falls to him to determine find out how to defend Earth going ahead.
Sure, there are nonetheless some key superfigures presumably hanging round (coughcoughScarletWitchcoughcough) however plainly Fury hasn’t been wrangling them the way in which he did earlier than. So all through “Far From Home,” he and Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) are kinda fumbling round making an attempt to take care of the obvious risk of the Elementals, turning to Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Spider-Man to take care of them.

Obviously, trusting Mysterio doesn’t go so nicely, and it’s fairly attention-grabbing that Nick Fury can be fooled by a con man like that. But the “Far From Home” post-credits scene sheds some mild on how such a factor may have occurred: that wasn’t really Nick Fury. Instead, it was the shapeshifting Skrull Talos (Ben Mendolsohn) from “Captain Marvel” disguised as Fury, with one other Skrull disguised as Hill. And the true Fury was really out on a spaceship or station with a bunch of different Skrulls the entire time.
That’s one hell of a twist, and it probably has some massive ramifications for the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. Though we should always most likely not get forward of ourselves on that entrance.
So what does this imply? Well, within the context of “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” it virtually actually signifies that we didn’t see the true Nick Fury on this film till the post-credits scene — it was most likely simply Talos the entire film. You could recall a scene earlier within the film the place Fury is speaking on the cellphone and mentions one thing about Kree sleeper cells — with none additional context, it could appear that subject is extra of a priority for Talos than it could be for Fury, because the Kree and Skrull are at battle with one another.

The larger query is the place even is the true Fury. The ship or station he’s hanging out on doesn’t appear like Mar-Vell’s secret lab from “Captain Marvel,” so it’s just about unattainable to guess the place he’s or typically what’s happening there. There’s probability, nonetheless, that he’s in Earth orbit relatively than some far-flung nook of the universe — Earth ought to nonetheless be his primary concern, in spite of everything.
But that’s only a guess, since within the temporary glimpse we get out the window of the ship we simply see stars. Anything is feasible, and it’s probably that this post-credits scene is organising “Captain Marvel 2” or another upcoming movie. Since Marvel nonetheless hasn’t introduced its upcoming slate of films for the MCU, we’ll simply have to attend and see. We would possibly get a greater thought of what this scene is all about later this month at Comic-Con — see the whole schedule for that right here.
If you wanna get actual massive in your fascinated about this, you possibly can fairly speculate that perhaps Talos has secretly been Fury for a bunch of different MCU films, with the true Fury hanging out in house for many years. But that’s a troublesome thought to show, provided that if Fury had a secret house station with a bunch of alien buddies on it at his beck and name it could have come up sooner. Plus, all of us noticed him die in Thanos’ snap, and he didn’t revert to a Skrull earlier than dusting out. More probably is that after Captain Marvel returned to Earth in “Avengers: Endgame” she introduced a few of her Skrull…
