Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury: Jackson reprises his role as S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Nick Fury, a character he has played in eight other Marvel Cinematic Universe films to date.

Jude Law as Starforce Commander: Not much is known about Law's character, but there are (unconfirmed) rumors that he's playing Mar-Vell, the original Captain Marvel. Law himself has been tight-lipped, telling Entertainment Weekly that his character is simply a "devout warrior — unquestioning, conservative, but inspirational." (Photo via Marvel Studios)
