What is Nick Fury's approximate age at various story intervals in the MCU?
I guess his exact birth date & age isn't important, but plus or minus a few years would be good to know. Given that the younger Nick Fury was shown in Captain Marvel and seemed to be more-or-less mid-career at that time, knowing his age would establish if we're likely to see even younger versions of him in action at SHIELD in future films.
Or for that matter, what the extent of his career might be in the future, assuming (hoping?) that somehow the end of Avengers: Infinity War turns out to be impermanent.
It also gives a sense of his physical capabilities (barring the superhuman). He is quite a commanding presence but that could mask some age-related limitations, for instance.
Note - I'm not asking the same thing as Does Nick Fury age in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?; that question is asking about whether he is aging physically, not how old he is in years since birth.

The MCU wiki puts his birth date as:
4th July 1950
That would put him as 44/45 during the events of Captain Marvel as that takes place in 1995.
However, the wiki references this to Captain Marvel and I can’t remember that coming up in the film. Unfortunately, there isn’t enough information on the film out yet for me to fact check this.
His birthdate and age are deliberately hidden in Captain America: The Winter Soldier according to Film School Rejects but this too is unsourced.
Because they couldn’t show Nick Fury’s birth and death dates on his tombstone, the directors needed to fill that space, so they chose the Ezekiel 25:17 quote from Pulp Fiction. Nicely done.
I remember Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos fighting Nazis in the 1960's comics.... obviously the MCU has a different view on this

@DannyMcG As far as I’m aware his age is unclear but I only saw CM once and was tired so I may have missed something in the film that did tell us this. It’s possible his age is more aligned with the comics.
