In the normal 616 Marvel Universe (you can tell I'm a real comic geek by the use of the 616), he is an old white dude. A few years ago, though, Marvel came out with an "alternate" version of their universe, the Ultimate universe, in which Nick Fury was black.
This version of the character was actually visually designed after Samuel L. Jackson, so it only makes sense that he plays him.
In any case, he's a much better choice than the actor who previously played Fury...
