In a shocking turn of events, The LA Times reports that Samuel L. Jackson won’t be appearing as Nick Fury in future Marvel Studios features.

The actor, who made a cameo in Iron Man, disclosed that negotiations with Marvel had broken down.

“There was a huge kind of negotiation that broke down. I don’t know. Maybe I won’t be Nick Fury. Maybe somebody else will be Nick Fury or maybe Nick Fury won’t be in it. There seems to be an economic crisis in the Marvel Comics world so [they're saying to me], ‘We’re not making that deal.’”

Marvel would not comment on the story.
