Disney is reportedly adding yet another Disney+ show to its Marvel queue — this time, starring Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury. While Disney has not yet confirmed it, it would be in keeping with the pattern of the other Disney+ shows: it gives much-needed screentime to a character often crowded out in Avenger-filled movies, who we desperately need to see more of.

The report comes from Variety, which reports that Jackson will reprise his role as the character, while Tyler Bradstreet of Mr. Robot is attached as the show’s writer. In case you aren’t familiar, Jackson claimed the rights to the movie role years ago when his face was used (without his consent) as the model for the character in the Ultimates series. When his agents contacted Marvel, they offered him first rights to any screen portrayal of the character by way of apology. And hot diggity, that little bit of infringement paying off for both parties in spades.
