Some MCU stories are self-contained.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Catching up with the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe becomes more difficult with each new release, but some MCU movies and TV shows do not require previous knowledge of the franchise. The MCU’s interconnectivity is arguably what made the saga so special compared to other superhero movie franchises.
11 Captain America: The First Avenger Captain America: The First Avenger features a bit more of MCU worldbuilding compared to Iron Man. Still, as an origin story of a Phase 1 Marvel character, The First Avenger does not require viewers to have seen previous films. The first MCU Captain America movie featured all the classic elements of Steve Roger’s origin story, combining the original comics with aspects of the Ultimate Universe.
8 Ant-Man Ant-Man is one of the most self-contained MCU movies, which is interesting considering it was released at the end of Phase 2. Still, given that an Ant-Man film had been in various stages of development since Phase 1, it made sense for the final result to be somewhat self-contained. Ant-Man is an origin story that feels like an MCU Phase 1 movie, with relatively low stakes and a new set of characters that had never appeared in live-action.
5 The Incredible Hulk The Incredible Hulk’s MCU canon status can be confusing. On one hand, it works as a soft reboot of Ang Lee’s Hulk, especially because it skips the origin story covered in the 2003 film. On the other hand, it is set in the MCU and features Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark in the post-credits scene. However, none of this changes the fact that The Incredible Hulk is very much a standalone movie, despite not being an origin story.
