Development By 2005,Marvel Entertainment had begun planning to produce its own films independently and distribute them throughParamount Pictures .[ 1] Marvel Studios secured funding from a $525 million revolving credit facility withMerrill Lynch .[ 2] crossover film.[ 3]
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige helped conceive a shared media universe of Marvel properties.[ 4] Marvel Studios presidentKevin Feige said in November 2013 that releases each year would ideally include one film based on an existing character and one featuring a new character, feeling that would be "a nice rhythm", although, this was not always the case as shown by the sequelsIron Man 3 Thor: The Dark World [ 5] [ 6] [ 7] [ 8] [ 9] [ 10] Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) superhero films. For example, he noted how the studio's 2016 releases,Captain America: Civil War Doctor Strange [ 11]
In February 2014, Feige said Marvel Studios wanted to mimic the "rhythm" of comic book releases by having characters appear in their own films and then come together for crossover events,[ 12] Avengers films acting as "big, giant linchpins" within theshared universe .[ 13] Avengers films, Feige said they planned to teach general audiences "about the notion of the characters existing separately, coming together for specific events and going away and existing separately in their own worlds again. Just like comic readers have been doing for decades... people sort of are accepting that there's just a time when they should be together and there's a time when they're not."[ 14] film rights to useSpider-Man becoming available in February 2015.[ 15]
Feige discussed moving the MCU toPhase Four in April 2016, reflecting on the first three phases of films and saying, "I think there will be a finality to moments ofPhase Three , as well as new beginnings that will mark a different, avery different, a distinctively different chapter in what will someday be a complete first saga made up of three Phases." Frequent MCU directorJoe Russo added that Phase Three was the "deconstruction Phase" of the MCU, beginning withCivil War and leading into "the culmination films" ofAvengers: Infinity War Avengers: Endgame [ 16] [ 17] Avengers: Endgame 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". Many of the films that were planned to followEndgame were intentionally different from the films in "The Infinity Saga ", which includesPhase One ,Phase Two , and Phase Three.[ 18]
In July 2019, Feige announced the Phase Four slate at San Diego Comic-Con, consisting of films and television event series for the streaming serviceDisney+ .[ 19] [ 20] [ 21] [ 22] Phase Five andSix slates at San Diego Comic-Con, similarly consisting of films and Disney+ series, and revealed that these three Phases would make up "The Multiverse Saga ".[ 23]
In May 2024, Disney CEOBob Iger said the company planned to release two, or at most three, Marvel films a year moving forward, down from four films being released in some recent years, as part of Disney's larger strategy to reduce its content output and focus on quality. At that time, four films were still expected to be released in both 2025 and 2026. Iger said Marvel content would continue to balance sequels with new franchises.[ 24] Blade [ 25] [ 26] Sony Pictures 'sSpider-Man: Brand New Day [ 27] [ 28] [ 29] [ 30] Thunderbolts* the "first and best example" of Marvel Studios' refocusing efforts.[ 31]
Further changes to Marvel Studios' release slate resulted in over a year gap betweenThe Fantastic Four: First Steps Brand New Day ; this would be the longest gap between MCU film releases since the gap betweenSpider-Man: Far From Home Black Widow COVID-19 pandemic .[ 32] Endgame in part due to the pandemic.

Accolades The films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been nominated for numerous awards, including 27Academy Awards (winning four).
Repurposed projects These projects were in development as films from Marvel Studios before becoming television series underMarvel Television :
Runaways Runaways Brian K. Vaughan was originally hired to write a screenplay based on the property in May 2008.[ 440] coming-of-age story in the style of directorJohn Hughes .[ 236] : 169 Peter Sollett to direct the film,[ 441] Drew Pearce was hired to write a script in May.[ 442] Small Faces , referencing the 1960s rock bandSmall Faces .[ 236] : 171 [ 443] Guardians of the Galaxy film instead.[ 444] Runaways film had been shelved in favor ofThe Avengers , with the earliest it could release being Phase Three.[ 445] MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios (2023), producerCraig Kyle noted that the film had been shelved because the New York-based Creative Committee did not believe the film's character make up fit their ideal demographic of what would help sell toys.[ 236] : 266 Runaways , Feige stated the project was "still an awesome script that exists in our script vault", adding, "We'd love to do something withRunaways some day. In our television and future film discussions, it's always one that we talk about, because we have a solid draft there. But again, we can't make them all."[ 10] Marvel's Runaways Hulu ,[ 446] [ 447] [ 448] Runaways would be its last.[ 449] Inhumans Inhumans as a property out of which he was "confident" a film would be made.[ 450] second season of the television seriesAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. [ 451] [ 452] [ 9] [ 453] [ 454] Inhumans was removed from the release schedule,[ 455] [ 456] Inhumans would "certainly" be a part of the discussion regarding the film ideas for 2020 and 2021,[ 457] [ 458] Marvel's Inhumans ABC in September 2017, afterthe first two episodes were screened inIMAX .[ 459] [ 460] Inhumans after one season in May 2018.[ 461]
Connections with otherSpider-Man franchises Following Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures' September 2019 agreement, Feige noted that as Sony continued to separately build their own shared universe, Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU), it was possible the MCU version of Spider-Man could appear in that universe.[ 231] [ 232] Variety called the connections between the two universes perplexing, specifically because if Holland were to appear in an SSU film it would retroactively make any previous SSU films part of the MCU, and because a teaser trailer for the SSU filmMorbius Michael Keaton , who previously playedAdrian Toomes / Vulture inSpider-Man: Homecoming . Sony Pictures Group PresidentSanford Panitch acknowledged this confusion and said there was a plan to clarify the relationship between the two universes. He believed it was already "getting a little more clear for people [as to] where we're headed" at that time and added that the release ofSpider-Man: No Way Home in December 2021 would reveal more of this plan. Vary commented that the apparent introduction of multiverse elements inNo Way Home could be what would allow Holland to appear in both the MCU and the SSU.[ 462] [ 95]
InNo Way Home , Stephen Strange casts two spells: one that brings characters from other universes into the MCU and one that sends them back to their own universes.[ 463] Tobey Maguire andAndrew Garfield returning as their versions of Spider-Man fromSam Raimi 'sSpider-Man trilogyMarc Webb 'sThe Amazing Spider-Man films[ 464] Willem Dafoe asNorman Osborn / Green Goblin ,Alfred Molina asOtto Octavius / Doctor Octopus , andThomas Haden Church asFlint Marko / Sandman from the Raimi films, as well asRhys Ifans asCurt Connors / Lizard andJamie Foxx asMax Dillon / Electro from the Webb films.[ 465] Venom: Let There Be Carnage Eddie Brock and Venom (Tom Hardy ) being transported into the MCU from their universe by the first spell and the mid-credits scene ofNo Way Home shows them being transported back to their own universe by the second spell. A small part of the Venom symbiote is left in the MCU.[ 463] Let There Be Carnage andNo Way Home teams to create the two scenes,[ 466] No Way Home director Jon Watts directing both scenes during production of that film.[ 467] Morbius revealed that Toomes was accidentally transported from the MCU to the SSU following Strange's second spell.[ 468] No Way Home are referenced in the animated filmSpider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse [ 469] Miles Morales , the main character of the animatedSpider-Verse film series[ 116]
