Marvel Cinematic Universe

The Marvel Cinematic Universe, or the MCU, is a media franchise created by Marvel Studios and set primarily in a shared universe, with some installments also set in adjacent or branching realities.

Starting with Iron Man, the franchise began with films independently made by Marvel Studios that are primarily set within this same universe, much like Marvel has done with their comics.

The franchise includes a series of short films, called Marvel One-Shots, launched with several films' Blu-ray releases starting with Thor and finishing with Thor: Ragnarok.

Starting with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the franchise expanded into television series, including series premiered on the ABC and Freeform channels, and on the Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ streaming platforms. The franchise also includes the news program WHiH Newsfront and the digital series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Slingshot.

Other contents include a series of tie-in comics and video games, released as promotional material to the films and series and therefore part of the franchise, even if some of them are set on these branching realities.
