The addition of Priscilla Fury is brand-new for Secret Invasion, with no immediate comic book counterpart springing to mind. Also, if Fury has a wife, it might explain why he kept Clint Barton’s family off-grid until Avengers: Age of Ultron. We imagine it wouldn’t have taken HYDRA long to track down someone like the famous Nick Fury’s wife, so it makes sense to keep her safe. The fact Nick doesn’t wear his wedding ring suggests he’s wary of only telling trusted allies like Rogers about Priscilla. Despite Fury sitting out Captain America: Civil War, the Civil War Prelude Infinite Comic again mentions he’s married. Fury claimed his wife had kicked him out, but after Cap said, “Didn’t know you were married,” many wrote it off as one of Fury’s notoriously stoic jokes. The 2014 movie featured Fury turning up at Steve Rogers’ (Chris Evans) house, having known S.H.I.E.L.D. Interestingly, Varra looks like she’s wearing an engagement ring in 1997, suggesting Fury wooed her shortly after the events of Captain Marvel.ĭespite the surprise curveball of Mrs Fury giving Nick a softer side, her eventual arrival in the MCU was signposted all the way back in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Whether the writers kept this reveal vague as a way to flesh out their story further down the line or not, Varra has likely taken on the alias of Priscilla Fury by the time we get to the present-day MCU.

Although it’s unconfirmed that Woodard played Varra, it definitely looks and sounds like her under those prosthetics, while the actor behind Varra isn’t listed in the credits. If you do some digging, it seems Varra and Priscilla are the same character. When we meet Priscilla in the final scene, some think the fact she quickly changes from her Skrull to human form means Fury doesn’t know his wife is a shapeshifting alien.
