10 Surprising Cameos From Avengers: Infinity War That You Need To See

Nick Fury & Maria Hill

In respect of the huge losses that the Avengers face at the climax of Infinity War, there’s no extra scene after the initial load of credits, as Alan Silvestri’s more sombre rearrangement of the theme leaves us sobbing into our popcorn boxes. At the very end of the very long credits, though, we finally get a tease for Avengers 4. Which features two more familiar faces.

Set within the finale of the movie, we join Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury and Cobie Smulder’s Maria Hill as they drive through New York while the Avengers battle Thanos in Wakanda. Suddenly, people start disappearing, the result of Thanos wiping out half of all life in the universe. Sadly, the former S.H.I.E.L.D. director and his right-hand woman are also affected and they soon crumble into dust.

Just when we were getting a lift from seeing two familiar faces back in the MCU for the first time since 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, not one but both of them are killed off. That’s mean, Marvel. Still, kudos for Fury’s final line, though. In classic Samuel L. Jackson style, he goes out saying “Motherfu-,” stopping just before things would’ve got very un-Disney. We wonder if that was a bit of improv on Jackson’s part.
