The shared universe, much like the original Marvel Universe in comic books, was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters. Marvel Studios releases its films in groups called "Phases", with the first three phases collectively known as "The Infinity Saga" and the following three phases as "The Multiverse Saga".

Development


Films and Disney+ series

By 2005, Marvel Entertainment had begun planning to produce its own films independently and distribute them through Paramount Pictures. Previously, Marvel had co-produced several superhero films with Columbia Pictures, New Line Cinema and others, including a seven-year development deal with 20th Century Fox. Marvel made relatively little profit from its

deals with other studios and wanted to get more money out of its films while maintaining artistic control of the projects and distribution. Avi Arad, head of Marvel's film division, was pleased with Sam Raimi's Spider-Man films at Sony Pictures, but was less pleased with others. As a result, Arad decided to form Marvel Studios, Hollywood's first major independent film studio since DreamWorks. Kevin Feige, Arad's second-in-command, realized that unlike Spider-Man and the X-Men, whose film rights were licensed to Sony and Fox, respectively, Marvel still owned the rights to the core members of the Avengers. Feige, a self-described "fanboy", envisioned creating a

Marvel's plan was to release individual films for their main characters and then merge them in a crossover film. Arad doubted the strategy, but insisted that it was his reputation that helped secure the initial financing. He resigned the following year. In 2007, at 33 years old, Feige was named studio chief. In order to preserve its artistic integrity, Marvel Studios formed a creative committee of six people familiar with its comic book lore: Feige, Marvel Studios co-president Louis D'Esposito,

Feige initially referred to the shared narrative continuity of these films as the "Marvel Cinema Universe", but later used the term "Marvel Cinematic Universe".

productions, which remained under Perlmutter's control. All key film decisions going forward were to be made by Feige, D'Esposito and Victoria Alonso. Feige mentioned that '' Avengers: Endgame'' (2019) would provide "a definitive end" to the films and storylines preceding it, with the franchise having "two distinct periods. Everything before 'Endgame''and everything after". He later said Phase Three would conclude "The Infinity Saga". By November 2017, Disney was looking to develop a new Marvel television series for their streaming service

. In July 2018, Feige noted discussions had begun with Disney regarding any potential involvement Marvel Studios could have with the streaming service, since Feige felt the service was "an important thing for the company". In September 2018, it was reported that Marvel Studios was developing several limited series centered on "second-tier" characters from the MCU films who had not and were unlikely to star in their own films. Each series was expected to be six to eight episodes, and would be produced by Marvel Studios rather than Marvel Television, with Feige taking a "hands-on role" in each series' development. Feige noted the series being developed for the streaming service would "tell stories... that we wouldn't be able to tell in a theatrical experience – a longer-form narrative". He also added that being asked by Disney to create these series "energized everyone creatively" within Marvel Studios, since they "could play in a new medium and throw the rules out the window in terms of structure and format".

, consisting of films and, for the first time, television event series on Disney+. The Phase Four slate includes '' What If...?'', the first animated series from Marvel Studios, and by July 2021 the studio was creating an "animation branch and mini studio" to focus on more animated content beyond ''What If...?''. In April 2022, Feige said he and Marvel Studios were on a creative retreat to plan and discuss the MCU films for the following 10 years. That July, Feige announced some of the films and series for Phase Five and Phase Six at San Diego Comic-Con, revealing that the second three Phases were collectively known as "The Multiverse Saga". Feige explained that Marvel Studios realized during development on Phase Four that it would be different from the first three phases, with more projects over a shorter period of time. This also came after the "creative experience" of ending Phase Three and "The Infinity Saga" with '' Avengers: Infinity War'' (2018) and ''Avengers: Endgame''. Therefore, instead of "culminat ngevery 10 months in an Avengers movie" they decided to leave that culmination until the end of "The Multiverse Saga", with the second three phases all building to '' Avengers: The Kang Dynasty'' and '' Avengers: Secret Wars'' (2026).

In January 2021, Feige said "never say never" to potentially reviving the Netflix series, but noted Marvel Studios was focused on their new Disney+ series announced at that time. In May 2022, it was revealed that Marvel Studios was developing a new ''Daredevil'' series for Disney+, which was announced in July as '' Daredevil: Born Again''.


Other media expansion

In 2008, the first tie-in comic was released. Quesada noted the comics would be set within the continuity of the films, but were not intended to be direct adaptions. Rather, they would explore "something that happened off screen" or flesh out something briefly mentioned. Feige was involved with the creation of the comics, with the film's screenwriters sometimes as well. Marvel Comics worked with Brad Winderbaum, Jeremy Latcham, and Will Corona Pilgrim at Marvel Studios to decide which concepts should be carried over from the Marvel Comics Universe to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, what to show in the tie-in comics, and what to leave for the films. Marvel has clarified which of the tie-in comics are considered canonical MCU stories, with the rest merely inspired by the MCU, "where we get to show off all the characters from the film in costume and in comic form". In August 2011, Marvel announced a series of direct-to-video short films called Marvel One-Shots, the name derived from the label used by Marvel Comics for their one-shot comics. Co-producer Brad Winderbaum called the short films "a fun way to experiment with new characters and ideas" and to expand the MCU. Each short film is designed to be a self-contained story that provides more backstory for characters or events introduced in the films. In March 2015, Marvel's Vice President of Animation Development and Production, Cort Lane, stated that animated tie-ins to the MCU were "in the works".

It follows Elena "Yo-Yo" Rodriguez on a secret mission, shortly before the start of ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.''s fourth season, with Natalia Cordova-Buckley reprising her role.

Business practices

Marvel Studios often puts together a "lookbook" of influences from the comics and art by Marvel's visual development department, to create a visual template for a project. These are put together at company retreats, which the studio holds every "18 months or so" to plan out and develop the phases of the MCU. These lookbooks are not always shown to directors, though, with Marvel sometimes preferring to let the director offer their own ideas first. When choosing a director for a project, Marvel Studios looks for filmmakers to hire who are able to guide a film, with some of their choices considered "out-of-left-field", given a director's previous work. Feige remarked, "You don't have to have directed a big, giant visual-effects movie to do a big, giant visual-effects movie for us. You just have to have done something singularly sort of awesome." The studio ensures directors are open to the idea of the shared universe and are willing to include connective material, such as Kenneth Branagh and Joe Johnston needing to include ''Avengers'' set-up scenes in ''Thor'' and ''Captain America: The First Avenger'', respectively. Marvel Studios usually has a big idea they would like to explore or build to in a project, such as Hydra infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D. in ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'', with it up to the filmmakers to interpret and "improv a little bit" to get there. After these ideas have been developed, the creative team then begins to explore ideas happening in other future projects to see how to make any larger universe connections. There was large amount of collaboration between the Russo brothers and writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely with the other Phase Three directors and writers to make sure "everything line up right" for the MCU's "culmination" in ''Avengers: Infinity War'' and ''Avengers: Endgame''. Marvel Studios also began contracting their actors for multiple films, including signing actor

to a then "unprecedented" nine-movie contract. Feige said the studio has all actors sign contracts for multiple films, with the norm being for 3 or more, and the 9 or 12 film deals "more rare". Actor's contracts also feature clauses that allows Marvel to use up to three minutes of an actor's performance from one film in another, which Marvel describes as "bridging material". By the start of Phase Four, Marvel Studios was no longer contracting actors for a large number of projects, with deal lengths varying for each actor and project. Feige said the studio was looking for actors who were excited to join the franchise and appear in multiple projects without being locked into contractual obligations. He also noted that they were starting to include theme park attractions in actors' deals. In August 2012, Marvel signed Joss Whedon to an exclusive contract through June 2015 for film and television. With the deal, Whedon would "contribute creatively" on Phase Two of the MCU and develop the first television series set in the universe. In April 2017,

revealed he would be working with Marvel "to help design where he Guardians of the Galaxy characters'stories go, and make sure the future of the Marvel Cosmic Universe is as special and authentic and magical as what we have created so far". By December 2020, because of the impact COVID-19 had on theaters and film studios shifting away from theatrical releases, Marvel Studios began exploring updated contracts for actors, writers, directors, and producers to receive adjusted compensation in the event a film had to debut on Disney+ instead of in theaters. '' TheWrap'' reported it was believed the new contracts would only apply to films about to enter production, and was unclear if any adjustments would be made to contracts for films already completed but not yet released. For Marvel Television, Loeb explained that they saw themselves as producers providing support to the showrunner: "we're involved in every aspect of the production—whether it's being in the writers' room, editing on set, casting—every step of the production goes through the Marvel team to tell the best story that we can." He added that the studio is able to work on so many series across different networks and platforms because all they needed was one person from the studio working on each series to help "guide the process". Actors appearing in Marvel Television series, such as

In December 2021, Feige confirmed that Cox would reprise the role of Daredevil in Marvel Studios MCU productions, with Cox first reprising the role in the film '' Spider-Man: No Way Home'' (2021). Additionally, D'Onofrio first reprises his role as Kingpin in the Disney+ series '' Hawkeye'' (2021).

Comic books

Multiple limited series or one-shot comics have been published by Marvel Comics that tie-into the MCU films and television series. They are intended to tell additional stories about existing characters, or to make connections between MCU projects, without necessarily expanding the universe or introducing new concepts or characters.


Books

''The Wakanda Files: A Technological Exploration of the Avengers and Beyond'' is "a collection of papers, articles, blueprints, and notes amassed throughout history by Wakanda's War Dogs" at the request of Shuri. It is organized by areas of study and covers the technological advancements throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The book, which exists in-universe, was written by Troy Benjamin and published by Epic Ink and Quarto Publishing Group. ''The Wakanda Files'' has content printed with UV ink that can be viewed with Kimoyo bead–shaped UV lights included with the book. It was released on October 20, 2020.

Timeline


As depicted in the MCU

During Phase One of the MCU, Marvel Studios lined up some of their films' stories with references to one another, though they had no long-term plan for the shared universe's timeline at that point. ''

'' is set six months after the events of '' Iron Man'', and around the same time as '' Thor'' according to comments made by Nick Fury. Several of Marvel's One-Shot films also occur around the events of Phase One films, including '' The Consultant'' (set after the events of ''Iron Man 2'' and ''The Incredible Hulk''), '' A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer'' (set before the events of ''Thor''), '' Item 47'' (set after ''The Avengers''), and '' Agent Carter'' (set one year after the events of '' Captain America: The First Avenger''). Wanting to simplify the in-universe timeline, the Phase Two films were set roughly in real time relating to ''The Avengers'': ''

'' ended the phase in 2015, with several months passing between those films in-universe as in real life. The One-Shot '' All Hail the King'' is set after the events of ''Iron Man 3''. For Phase Three, directors the Russo brothers wanted to continue using real time, and so '' Captain America: Civil War'' begins a year after ''Age of Ultron'', with '' Avengers: Infinity War'' set two years after that. Producer Brad Winderbaum said the Phase Three films would actually "happen on top of each other" while being less "interlocked" as the Phase One films were, with '' Black Panther'' and '' Spider-Man: Homecoming'' respectively beginning a week and several months after ''Civil War''; '' Thor: Ragnarok'' beginning four years after ''The Dark World'' and two years after ''Age of Ultron'', around the same time as ''Civil War'' and ''Homecoming''; '' Doctor Strange'' taking place over a whole year and ending in late 2016, "up to date with the rest of the MCU"; ''

Following ''Infinity War'', the Russo brothers said future films would not necessarily be set according to real time as there are "a lot of very inventive ways of where the story can go from here", with both ''Ant-Man and the Wasp'' and '' Captain Marvel'' set earlier in the timeline; the latter is set in 1995. '' Avengers: Endgame'' begins shortly after ''Infinity War'' and ends in 2023 after a five-year time jump. It confirms dates for several of the other films, including ''The Avengers'' in 2012, ''Thor: The Dark World'' in 2013, ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' in 2014, ''Doctor Strange'' around 2017, and ''Ant-Man and the Wasp'' in 2018 before ''Infinity War''. '' Spider-Man: Far From Home'' begins eight months after ''Endgame'' in 2024. With Phase Four, Marvel Studios expanded into television series, which have greater interconnectivity with the MCU feature films than the series from Marvel Television. Many of the properties in the Phase are set after the events of ''Avengers: Endgame''. '' WandaVision'' is set three weeks after the events of that film, and directly sets up ''

detailing this timeline in May 2012. When ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' was being developed, director and co-writer Jon Watts was shown a scroll detailing the MCU timeline that was created by co-producer Eric Carroll when he first began working for Marvel Studios. Watts said the scroll included both where the continuity of the films lined-up and did not lineup, and when fully unfurled it extended beyond the length of a long conference table. This scroll was used as the basis to weave the continuity of ''Homecoming'' into the previous films, such as ''The Avengers''. This was labeled in the film with a title card stating that eight years pass between the end of ''The Avengers'' and the events of ''Civil War'', which was widely criticized as a continuity error that broke the established MCU timeline, in which only four years should have passed. Additionally, dialogue in ''Civil War'' indicates that eight years pass between the end of ''Iron Man'' and the events of that film, despite the established continuity being closer to five or six years. ''Infinity War'' co-director Joe Russo described the ''Homecoming'' eight years time jump as "very incorrect", and the mistake was ignored in ''Infinity War'' which specified that its events were taking place only six years after ''The Avengers''. The public response to the ''Homecoming'' mistake inspired Marvel Studios to release a new timeline for all three phases, and in November 2018, a timeline, specifying dates for the events in each film released to that point, was included as part of the sourcebook ''Marvel Studios: The First 10 Years'', celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the MCU. This timeline ignores the two "eight-year" continuity errors, but also contradicts the events of ''Black Panther'' and ''Infinity War'' by placing them in 2017. Despite the latter apparent mistakes, Thomas Bacon of '' Screen Rant'' described the timeline as "the closest Marvel has yet come to making an official statement on just when the different MCU events are set", bringing "some sense of balance to the MCU continuity". In October 2020, the Marvel section of

was restructured to include groupings of the films by phase, as well as a grouping that put the films in timeline order. Bacon felt the placement of ''Thor: The Dark World'' between ''The Avengers'' and ''Iron Man 3'' and ''Black Panther'' after ''Captain America: Civil War'' in this timeline corrected "previous issues" with their placement in the November 2018 ''First 10 Years'' timeline, and was glad Disney and Marvel "recognize it's possible to watch these movies in anything other than release order", "legitimiz ng this viewing experience. ''The Incredible Hulk'', ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'', and ''Spider-Man: Far From Home'' were excluded since Disney did not have their distribution rights, but Bacon felt ''The Incredible Hulk'' could be viewed after ''Iron Man 2'' since it is simultaneous with that film, ''Homecoming'' could come after ''Black Panther'', and ''Far From Home'' could be viewed after ''Avengers: Endgame''. Julia Alexander at '' The Verge'' agreed with Bacon that it "seems like Disney finally understands how ome viewerswant to watch Marvel movies". In June 2022, ''Homecoming'' became available on Disney+ in the United Kingdom and Australia, while ''Far From Home'' became available on Disney+ in Japan the following month; both were added to the Disney+ timeline in those territories. By August 2022, ''The Incredible Hulk'' was added to the Disney+ timeline in territories it was available in such as Spain and Japan. By August 2022, Marvel Studios had hired an individual to keep track of the placement of the studio's projects in the MCU timeline. With the release of ''Thor: Love and Thunder'' on Disney+ in September 2022, Bacon and his colleague Molly Jae Weinstein noted how the film's placement in the timeline order section on the platform seemed incorrect, with Bacon saying it made "no sense" given dialogue and events in the film that contradicted this placement, and also pointing out how ''Shang-Chi'' and ''Moon Knight''s placements also ignored dating information given in each. Bacon said, "The MCU's timeline is now complicated by the sheer volume of Marvel films and TV shows currently in production, because even Marvel's key decision-makers don't really know quite what order things will be released." Unlike the earlier phases where each new project was the next chronological title in the timeline, Phase Four "has hopped around the timeline with impunity", which in turn made it "rather messy". Bacon added how viewers have noted the Disney+ timeline was "deeply flawed" with "numerous contradictions". With the release of ''The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special'', Bacon believed its placement on the Disney+ timeline "fixed" ''Love and Thunder''s placement, thinking that film should be placed in late 2024 on the timeline. He also pointed out how projects typically appear at the end of the Disney+ timeline, "even when such placements can't possibly be right". In November 2022, Bacon noted how ''Far From Home''s appearance in the Disney+ timeline between ''The Falcon and the Winter Soldier'' and ''Shang-Chi'' could not be correct given story points in each of those projects indicating where they fell in the timeline, and hoped Marvel would correct these mistakes as it had done previously with ''Black Widow'' and ''Black Panther''. As of ''The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special'', the Disney+ timeline order is ''Captain America: The First Avenger'', ''Agent Carter'', ''Captain Marvel'', ''Iron Man'', ''Iron Man 2'', ''The Incredible Hulk'', ''A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer'', ''Thor'', ''The Consultant'', ''The Avengers'', ''Item 47'', ''Thor: The Dark World'', ''Iron Man 3'', ''All Hail the King'', ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'', ''Guardians of the Galaxy'', ''I Am Groot'' episode 1, ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'', ''I Am Groot'' episodes 2–5, ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'', ''Ant-Man'', ''Captain America: Civil War'', ''Black Widow'', ''Black Panther'', ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'', ''Doctor Strange'', ''Thor: Ragnarok'', ''Ant-Man and the Wasp'', ''Avengers: Infinity War'', ''Avengers: Endgame'', ''Loki'', ''What If...?'', ''WandaVision'', ''The Falcon and the Winter Soldier'', ''Spider-Man: Far From Home'', ''Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings'', ''Eternals'', ''Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness'', ''Hawkeye'', ''Moon Knight'', ''She-Hulk: Attorney at Law'', ''Ms. Marvel'', ''Thor: Love and Thunder'', ''Werewolf by Night'', and ''The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special''.


Multiverse

The '' Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z'', Vol. 5, published in 2008, originally designated the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Earth-199999 within the continuity of Marvel's comic multiverse, a collection of fictional alternate universes, although this designation was rarely used officially outside of the source material. The television series ''Loki'' and ''What If...?'' were the first to explore the concept of the multiverse within the MCU, as well as the film ''Spider-Man: No Way Home'', which connected the MCU to other Spider-Man film franchises by featuring characters from Sam Raimi's ''Spider-Man'' trilogy, Marc Webb's ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' films, and

His cameo in ''Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'' sees Lee appearing as an informant to the Watchers, discussing previous adventures that include Lee's cameos in other MCU films; he specifically mentions his time as a FedEx delivery man, referring to Lee's cameo in ''Captain America: Civil War''. This acknowledged the fan theory that Lee may be portraying the same character in all his cameos, with writer and director James Gunn noting that "people thought Stan Lee is Uatu_the_Watcher.html" ;"title="Uatu.html" ;"title="/nowiki>Uatu">Uatu the Watcher">Uatu.html" ;"title="/nowiki>Uatu">Uatu the Watcher/nowiki> and that all of these cameos are part of him being a Watcher. So, Stan Lee as a guy who is working for the Watchers was something that I thought was fun for the MCU." Feige added that Lee "clearly exists, you know, above and apart from the reality of all the films. So the notion that he could be sitting there on a cosmic pit stop during the jump gate sequence in ''Guardians''...really says, so wait a minute, he's this same character who's popped up in all these films?" Following Lee's death, Marvel Studios chose not to create any new Lee cameos in future projects. NY1 news anchor Pat Kiernan has also appeared in multiple MCU films and television series as himself.


Reception

Early on, the shared universe element of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was criticized by some journalists. Around the release of ''The Avengers'' in 2012, Jim Vorel of '' Herald & Review'' called the Marvel Cinematic Universe "complicated" and "impressive", but said, "As more and more heroes get their own film adaptations, the overall universe becomes increasingly confusing." Kofi Outlaw of ''Screen Rant'' stated that while ''The Avengers'' was a success, "Marvel Studios still has room to improve their approach to building a shared movie universe". Some reviewers criticized the fact that the desire to create a shared universe led to films that did not hold as well on their own. In his review of ''Thor: The Dark World'', ''

'' critic Scott Mendelson likened the MCU to "a glorified television series", with ''The Dark World'' being a "'stand-alone' episode that contains little long-range mythology". Collider's Matt Goldberg considered that while ''Iron Man 2'', ''Thor'' and ''Captain America: The First Avenger'' were quality productions, "they have never really been their own movies", feeling that the plot detours to S.H.I.E.L.D. or lead-ups to ''The Avengers'' dragged down the films' narratives. The metaphor of the MCU as "the world's biggest TV show" was discussed again, after the release of ''Captain America: Civil War'', by Emily VanDerWerff of '' Vox'', who felt that film in particular highlighted Marvel's success with the model, saying, "Viewed in complete isolation, the plot of ''Captain America: Civil War'' makes little to no sense ... utwhen you think about where aptain Americahas been in earlier Marvel films ... his leeriness about being subject to oversight makes a lot more sense." VanDerWerff continued that when thinking about the MCU as a television series, many "common criticisms people tend to level at it take on a new context" such as complaints that the films are formulaic, lack "visual spark", or "shoehorn in story elements" that "are necessary to set up future films", all characteristics that "are fairly typical on television, where a director's influence is much lower than that of the showrunner", in this case, Feige. Comparing the films to the series ''Game of Thrones'' specifically, VanDerWerff noted that each solo film checks "in on various characters and their individual side stories, before bringing everyone together in the finale (or, rather, an Avengers film)", with ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' being equivalent to the character

—"both separated by long distances from everybody else". She noted that this format was an extension of early "TV-like" film franchises such as '' Star Wars'', as well as the format of the comics upon which the films are based. "I say all of this not to suggest that film franchises resembling TV series is necessarily a good trend", VanDerWerff concluded, "For as much as I generally enjoy the Marvel movies, I'm disheartened by the possibility that their particular form might take over the film industry ... But I also don't think it's the end of the world if Marvel continues on ... there's a reason TV has stolen so much of the cultural conversation over the past few decades. There's something legitimately exciting about the way the medium tells stories when it's good, and if nothing else, Marvel's success shows the film world could learn from that." Following the conclusion of season one of ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'', Mary McNamara at the ''

'' praised the connections between that series and the films, stating that "never before has television been literally married to film, charged with filling in the back story and creating the connective tissue of an ongoing film franchise ... 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.''is now not only a very good show in its own right, it's part of Marvel's multiplatform city-state. It faces a future of perpetual re-invention, and that puts it in the exhilarating first car of television's roller-coaster ride toward possible world domination." Terri Schwartz of Zap2it agreed with this sentiment, stating that "the fact that 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier''so influenced the show is game-changing in terms of how the mediums of film and television can be interwoven", though "the fault there seems to be that ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' had to bide time until ''The Winter Soldier''s release", which led to much criticism. In January 2015, Michael Doran of Newsarama and Graeme McMillian of ''The Hollywood Reporter'' had a "point-counterpoint" debate in response to the first ''Ant-Man'' trailer. Doran stated, "Marvel has raised the bar high that as opposed to just allowing another film to finish under the CUbar, we're all overly and perhaps even eager to overreact to the first thing that doesn't clear it". McMillian responded, "at this point, Marvel's brand is such that I'm not sure it can offer up something like he trailer it seeming like a crushing disappointment ... part of Marvel's brand is that it offer the kind of run-of-the-mill superhero movie that you're talking about, that it's ... at least different enough to tweak and play with the genre somehow ... The fact that there's such upset about this trailer being ... well, okay ... suggests to me that the audience expecting something to knock their socks off." Doran concluded, "That does seem to be the point here—the expectations fans now have for everything Marvel Studios ... ndMarvel going to eventually falter." After seeing the portrayal of

in ''Ant-Man'', the antagonist of the film, McMillian noted, Following the release of ''Jessica Jones'', David Priest at '' CNET'' wrote about how the series rescues "Marvel from itself ... ''Jessica Jones'' takes big steps forward in terms of theme, craft and diversity. It's a good story first, and a superhero show second. And for the first time, the MCU seems like it matters. Our culture needs stories like this. Here's hoping Marvel keeps them coming." For Paul Tassi and Erik Kain of ''Forbes'', watching the series made them question the MCU, with Kain feeling that the "morally complex, violent, dark world of ''Jessica Jones'' has no place in the MCU ... right now, the MCU is holding back shows like ''Jessica Jones'' and ''Daredevil'', while those shows are contributing absolutely nothing to the MCU." Tassi went so far as to wonder what "the point of the Marvel Cinematic Universe" is, lamenting the lack of major crossovers in the franchise since the ''Winter Soldier'' reveal on ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'', and saying that ''Jessica Jones'' is "so far removed from the world of ''The Avengers'', it might as well not be in the same universe at all ... really don't understand the point of he MCUif they're going to keep everything within it separated off in these little boxes". Conversely, Eric Francisco of Inverse called ''Jessica Jones''s lack of overt connections to the MCU "the show's chief advantage. Besides demonstrating how physically wide open the MCU's scope really is, ''Jessica Jones'' also proves the MCU's thematic durability." In April 2016, Marvel Studios revealed that Alfre Woodard would appear in ''Captain America: Civil War'', having already been cast as Mariah Dillard in ''Luke Cage'' the previous year. This "raised hopes that Marvel could be uniting its film and Netflix universes", with "one of the first and strongest connections" between the two. ''Civil War'' writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely revealed that Woodard would instead be portraying Miriam Sharpe in the film, explaining that she had been cast on the suggestion of Robert Downey, Jr., and they had not learned of her casting in ''Luke Cage'' until afterwards. This was not the first instance of actors being cast in multiple roles in the MCU, but this casting was called more "significant", and seen by many as a "disappointing" indication of "the growing divide" and "lack of more satisfying cooperation" between Marvel Studios and Marvel Television following the September 2015 corporate reshuffling of Marvel Entertainment. Speaking to the 1990s setting of '' Captain Marvel'', "the MCU's first full period piece since Phase One's ''Captain America: The First Avenger'' in 2011", Richard Newby of ''The Hollywood Reporter'' felt the return of younger versions of some characters introduced and killed in earlier films "open dup the MCU in a whole new way and broaden dthe franchise's mantra of 'it's all connected.

's appearance as Agent Phil Coulson in the film, Newby noted the appearance "doesn't exactly mend fences between Marvel's film and TV divisions, utit does strengthen the connective tissue and the sense that these characters still matter in the grand scheme of Marvel's film plans". He also hoped that continuity from ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' would be maintained in ''Captain Marvel'', especially since Coulson has dealt with the Kree in the series. Newby also added that shifting to different time periods would help Marvel Studios "sustain this cinematic universe for the next 10 years" by allowing them to repeat some of the genres previously used, as they could then feel "fresh" and have "different rules and different restraints," as well as allow them to build upon material established in the television series such as ''Agent Carter''. He concluded, Likewise, in his review of ''Avengers: Endgame'',

'', asserting that these films are not cinema, but are instead the equivalent of theme park rides that lack "mystery, revelation or genuine emotional danger". He also stated that such films are corporation products that have been "market-researched, audience-tested, vetted, modified, revetted and remodified until they're ready for consumption", and that the invasion of such "theme park" films in theaters crowded out films by other directors. Scorsese's remarks were dismissed by directors of MCU films such as Joss Whedon and James Gunn, while they were defended by Francis Ford Coppola, who described the potential effect of Marvel films in the film industry as "despicable".

Conversely, George Miller stated, "To me, it's all cinema. I don't think you can ghettoize it and say, oh this is cinema or that is cinema. It applies to all the arts, to literature, the performing arts, painting and music, in all its form. It's such a broad spectrum, a wide range and to say that anyone is more significant or more important than the other, is missing the point. It's one big mosaic and each bit of work fits into it." Marvel's audience was studied by Morning Consult, which found that only 9% of Marvel's fan base is Gen Z, 64% of fans are White adults, and 42% of fans live in suburban areas.


Cultural impact


Other studios

After the release of ''The Avengers'' in May 2012, Tom Russo of '' Boston.com'' noted that aside from the occasional "novelty" such as '' Alien vs. Predator'' (2004), the idea of a shared universe was virtually unheard of in Hollywood. Since that time, the shared universe model created by Marvel Studios has begun to be replicated by other film studios that held rights to other comic book characters. In April 2014, Tuna Amobi, a media analyst for Standard & Poor's Equity Research Services, stated that in the previous three to five years, Hollywood studios began planning "megafranchises" for years to come, opposed to working one blockbuster at a time. Amobi added, "A lot of these superhero characters were just being left there to gather dust. Disney has proved that this pproach and genrecan be a gold mine." With more studios now "playing the megafranchise game", Doug Creutz, media analyst for Cowen and Company, feels the allure will eventually die for audiences: "If Marvel's going to make two or three films a year, and Warner Brothers is going to do at least a film every year, and Sony's going to do a film every year, and Fox sgoing to do a film every year, can everyone do well in that scenario? I'm not sure they can." In March 2018, Patrick Shanley of ''The Hollywood Reporter'' opined that "the key differences between a regular franchise, such as '' The Fast and the Furious'' or ''Pitch Perfect'' films, and a shared universe is the amount of planning and interweaving that goes into each individual film. Its all too easy to make a film that exists solely for the purpose of setting up future installments and expanding a world, rather than a film that stands on its own merits while deftly hinting or winking at its place in the larger mythos. In that, the MCU has flourished." He felt that ''Iron Man'' "itself was aimed at being an enjoyable stand-alone experience, not as an overall advertisement for 17 subsequent movies. That mentality has persisted through most of the MCU films over the past decade, which is all the more impressive as its roster of heroes now exceeds the two-dozen mark."

20th Century Fox

In November 2012, 20th Century Fox announced plans to create their own shared universe, consisting of Marvel properties that it holds the rights to including the Fantastic Four and X-Men, with the hiring of Mark Millar as supervising producer. Millar said, "Fox are thinking, 'We're sitting on some really awesome things here. There is another side of the Marvel Universe. Let's try and get some cohesiveness going.' So they brought me in to oversee that really. To meet with the writers and directors to suggest new ways we could take this stuff and new properties that could spin out of it." '' X-Men: Days of Future Past'', released in 2014, was Fox's first step towards expanding their stable of Marvel properties and creating this universe, ahead of the release of a ''Fantastic Four'' reboot film the next year. In May 2014, ''Days of Future Past'' and ''Fantastic Four'' screenwriter Simon Kinberg stated that the latter film would not take place in the same universe as the ''X-Men'' films, explaining that "none of the ''X-Men'' movies have acknowledged the notion of a sort of superhero team—the Fantastic Four. And the Fantastic Four acquire powers, so for them to live in a world where mutants are prevalent is kind of complicated, because you're like, 'Oh, you're just a mutant.' Like, 'What's so fantastic about you?' ... they live in discrete universes." In July 2015, ''X-Men'' director

Sony Pictures

In November 2013, Sony Pictures Entertainment Co-Chairman Amy Pascal announced that the studio intended to expand their universe created within the The Amazing Spider-Man (2012 film series), Marc Webb ''Amazing Spider-Man'' series, with spin-off adventures for supporting characters, in an attempt to replicate Marvel and Disney's model.

films, both set in the ''Amazing Spider-Man'' universe. With this announcement, '' IGN'' stated that the spin-offs are "the latest example of what we can refer to as "the ''Avengers'' effect" in Hollywood, as studios work to build interlocking movie universes." Sony chose not to replicate the Marvel Studios model of introducing individual characters first before bringing them together in a team-up film, instead making the Spider-Man adversaries the stars of future films. In February 2015, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios announced that the ''Spider-Man'' franchise would be retooled, with a new film co-produced by Feige and Pascal being released in July 2017, and the character being integrated into the MCU. Sony Pictures would continue to finance, distribute, own, and have final creative control of the ''Spider-Man'' films. With this announcement, sequels to '' The Amazing Spider-Man 2'' were canceled, and by November 2015 the Venom and Sinister Six films, as well as spin-offs based on female characters in the Spider-Man universe, were no longer moving forward. By March 2016, the Venom film had itself been retooled, to start its own franchise unrelated to the MCU Spider-Man. A year later, Sony officially announced the Venom film to be in development, for an October 5, 2018 release, along with a film centered on the characters

and Andrew Garfield. After Sony canceled their shared universe plans and started sharing the Spider-Man character with Marvel Studios, multiple critics discussed their failure at replicating the MCU. Scott Meslow of '' The Week'' noted the perceived flaws of the first ''Amazing Spider-Man'' film, outside of its lead performances, and how the sequel "doubles down on all the missteps of the original while adding a few of its own. …We now have a textbook example of how not to reboot a superhero franchise, and if Sony and Marvel are wise, they'll take virtually all those lessons to heart as they chart Spider-Man's next course." Scott Mendelson noted that ''The Amazing Spider-Man 2'' "was sold as less a sequel to '' The Amazing Spider-Man'' than a backdoor pilot for ''Spider-Man vs. the Sinister Six''. …Had Sony stuck with the original plan of a scaled-down superhero franchise, one that really was rooted in romantic drama, they would have at least stuck out in a crowded field of superhero franchises. When every superhero film is now going bigger, ''Amazing Spider-Man'' could have distinguished itself by going small and intimate." This would have saved Sony "a boatload of money", and potentially reversed the film's relative financial failure.

In addition, there was a simulator game, titled "Become Iron Man", that used Kinect-like technology to allow the viewer to be encased in an animated Mark XLII armor and take part in a series of "tests," in which you fire repulsor rays and fly through Tony Stark's workshop. The game was guided by J.A.R.V.I.S., who is voiced again by Paul Bettany. The exhibit also had smaller displays that included helmets and chest pieces from the earlier films and the gauntlet and boot from an action sequence in ''Iron Man 3''. The exhibit for ''Thor: The Dark World'' was called "Thor: Treasures of Asgard", and featured displays of Asgardian relics and transports guests to Odin's throne room, where they were greeted by Thor.

Live-action specials


''Marvel Studios: Assembling a Universe'' (2014)

On March 18, 2014, ABC aired a one-hour television special titled ''Marvel Studios: Assembling a Universe'', which documented the history of Marvel Studios and the development of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and included exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage from all of the films, One-Shots, and ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'', and sneak peeks of ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'', ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'', ''Guardians of the Galaxy'', unaired episodes of ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'', and ''Ant-Man''. Brian Lowry of ''Variety'' felt the special, "contains a pretty interesting business and creative story. While it might all make sense in hindsight, there was appreciable audacity in Marvel's plan to release five loosely connected movies from the same hero-filled world, beginning with the cinematically unproven ''Iron Man'' and culminating with superhero team ''The Avengers''. As such, this fast-moving hour qualifies as more than just a cut-and-paste job from electronic press kits, although there's an element of that, certainly." The special was released on September 9, 2014, on the home media for ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' season 1.


''Marvel 75 Years: From Pulp to Pop!'' (2014)

In September 2014, ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'' executive producer Jeffrey Bell stated that in order to meet production demands and avoid having to air repeat episodes, ABC would likely air a Marvel special in place of a regular installment at some point during the first ten episodes of ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.''s second season. In October, the special was revealed to be ''Marvel 75 Years: From Pulp to Pop!'', which was hosted by
Emily VanCamp Emily Irene VanCamp (; born May 12, 1986) is a Canadian actress. She first came to prominence for her work with producer Greg Berlanti, who cast her as a series regular on The WB drama ''Everwood'' (2002–2006) and the ABC drama '' Brothers & ...
, who portrays Agent 13 in ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'', and aired on November 4, 2014. The special features behind the scenes footage from ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'' and ''Ant-Man'', as well as footage from the ''Agent Carter'' television series previously screened at New York Comic-Con. Brian Lowry of ''Variety'' felt an hour for the special did not "do the topic justice" adding, "For anyone who has seen more than one Marvel movie but would shrug perplexedly at the mention of Jack Kirby or

, ''Marvel 75 Years: From Pulp To Pop!'' should probably be required viewing. Fun, fast-paced and encompassing many of the company's highlights along with a few lowlights, it's a solid primer on Marvel's history, while weaving in inevitable self-promotion and synergistic plugs." Eric Goldman of IGN also wished the special had been longer, adding, "Understandably, the more you already know about Marvel, the less you'll be surprised by ''Marvel 75 Years: From Pulp to Pop!'', but it's important to remember who this special is really made for – a mainstream audience who have embraced the Marvel characters, via the hugely successful movies, in a way no one could have imagined."
