Catch up on all of the Marvel movies, while waiting on the new movie “The Marvels,” which comes out November 10, 2023.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films are a series of American superhero films produced by Marvel Studios based on Marvel Comics characters. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is the shared universe where all films occur.
With comic book heroes like Spider-Man, Thor, Iron Man, and the Hulk, Marvel Comics revolutionized the superhero genre in the 1960s. Adventurers in vibrant costumes fought extraterrestrial creatures and criminals mainly on New York City's streets but, although having extraordinary superpowers, suffered from emotional and societal issues.
Readers were frequently referred to as “true believers” by Stan Lee, the creator of the Marvel universe.
