14) Nick Fury’s Gravestone: A Clever Hint in The Winter Soldier

In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the epitaph of Nick Fury reads with a Bible verse: "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides." This line referencing the famous Ezekiel passage, which foreshadows his role as a leader against evil, subtly reflects the themes of moral conflict and the burden of leadership throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Viewers who notice this will realize how it reflects the internal conflicts that Fury faces and the complicated world he has to maneuver to bring home justice and sacrifice.
