Marvel Cinematic Universe The -...

Trivia Hub

THE MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION
CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is a shared universe of interconnected films, television series, and other media properties, based on Marvel Comics characters. Kevin Feige is a key figure in its development, having conceived the shared media universe and serving as the studio chief. Initially planned as a series of individual films that merged into crossovers, the MCU has expanded to include television event series, short films, and digital content, all contributing to an overarching narrative. The MCU's narrative is divided into phases, with the first three phases collectively known as "The Infinity Saga" and phases four through six known as "The Multiverse Saga". Marvel Studios has also created an animation branch to produce more animated content. The MCU has also expanded into other media, such as theme park attractions, exhibits, documentaries and books.
CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:
The Marvel Cinematic Universe was initially referred to as the "Marvel Cinema Universe" by Kevin Feige before he changed the name. The shared narrative continuity expanded beyond just films to include other media.
Marvel Studios secured a $525 million revolving credit facility with Merrill Lynch to raise capital for their film projects. This funding enabled the studio to plan individual films for main characters that would eventually merge into crossover movies.
Avi Arad, who resigned from Marvel in 2006, doubted the shared universe strategy would work, and felt it was his reputation that secured the initial financing. He did not believe that individual films would be successful.
