The latest updates and spoilers for "Spider-Man: Far From Home" reveal a possible appearance by Nick Fury in the movie and the addition of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star J.B. Smoove to the film's cast. Samuel L. Jackson announced on his Instagram account that he will reprise his role as former S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury in Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In addition to information about "Far From Home," below are additional Avengers spoilers as well.

The sequel will feature Peter Parker and his high school friends going on a Stark Industries sponsored trip to London.

Their trip is interrupted when Mysterio steals one of Tony Stark's last inventions from the company, and Peter is compelled to stop him in order to preserve Iron Man's legacy.

Nick Fury meets Spider-Man

According to Digital Spy, Samuel L. Jackson will return as Nick Fury in the MCU Phase 4 films, starting with "Spider-Man: Far From Home." The website speculated that he will replace Tony Stark as Spidey's mentor during the events of the film.

Moviegoers and comic book fans last saw Nick Fury in the post-credits scene of "Avengers: Infinity War" as one of the victims of the "Thanos Snap," along with Maria Hill. Jackson will also play a younger version of his character in the "Captain Marvel" film.

Spidey will have a tough time coping with the aftermath of "Infinity War" and "Avengers 4." Peter feels guilty and lonely after Tony sacrifices himself to save the whole universe from Thanos and the Infinity Stones. It is likely that Fury will step up to guide the young web-head in his healing process in order to become a better superhero.

The sequel will also feature the MCU appearance of Spencer, Alistair Smythe, and Jessica Drew. Jessica will be an MI6 agent tasked to stop Mysterio. Spencer will be a veteran scientist at Stark Industries, and Alistair will be Peter's rival.

A new cast member for 'Far From Home' revealed

Marvel Studios cast J.B. Smoove in a leading role for "Spider-Man: Far From Home." Smoove first made an appearance in an Audi commercial for "Spider-Man: Homecoming," as Peter's driving instructor.

While the details of his role in the sequel have not been announced, Screen Rant theorized that Smoove will likely play the MCU's version of Daily Bugle chief editor, J. Jonah Jameson. In the comics, Jameson has a completely unwarranted grudge against Spider-Man and he uses the Daily Bugle newspaper to expose him as a public menace, rather than a hero. He is unaware that the web-slinger is actually Peter, who works for him as a photographer for the Bugle.

"Whiplash" actor JK Simmons played J. Jonah Jameson in Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man" movie trilogy.
