Oh - Tony Stark goes back to his apartment. Asks JArvis who's there. A gravely voice answers, and all we see for a moment is a tall bald man with an eye-patch in the shadows.
The lights come up, the man steps forward, it is Samuel L Jackson. And he introduces himself as Nick Fury, from Shield, and has come to talk to Tony about the Avenger's Initiative.
His line is:" I'm Iron Man? Come on Tony, you really think you are the only superhero in this universe? You are one of several, and we need to put together a way of handling the situation, that is what I've come to talk to you about - a little something I've put together called the Avenger's Initiative."
Or something along those lines.
If you're a fan of the comics - it's a squee moment. Because in the AU Marvel Universe, or Ultimate books, the redesigned Nick Fury, who in the originals is a white WWII vet, into a black man who looks exactly like Samuel L. Jackson. Apparently Faveru convinced Jackson to do the cameo.
And they are planning an Avengers' movie - if the Hulk does well and Thor does well, then they can get Downey, Norton, and whoever is up as Thor on board, along with Captain America - it could be great. But I have my doubts. Look what happened to DC's attempts for Justice League.
Will state getting top-notch actors to do these roles is a stroke of genius. I think they've finally learned their lesson.
