Samuel L Jackson Gathers Gamers In New Superbowl Verizon Ad

Samuel L Jackson has had a career that many Hollywood actors could only dream of, playing Nick Fury in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and countless other major roles during his many years of acting, and now he’s taken on a role which has thrown many for a loop playing himself with gamers in a Verizon ad that aired during the Super Bowl! With Verizon creating an ad specifically for gamers, Jackson will be portrayed entirely in CG, with the actor’s voice going on to rally gamers for a major challenge!

When we last saw Samuel L Jackson in the MCU, he was aboard a spaceship during the post-credit scene of Spider-Man: Far From Home, apparently engaged in business far from Earth. With a Disney + series already in preview Secret invasion featuring both Samuel L Jackson and the Skrulls first introduced in the movie, Captain MarvelObviously, Nick Fury is still going through a lot of adventures heading his way as a part of the world that made the Avengers superstar. Needless to say, Jackson has a good personality to give gamers a rallying cry.

The ad even ends with a reference to the movie, Deep blue sea, who saw Jackson’s character unexpectedly eaten by a shark!
