Avengers: Infinity War
James Gunn reveals on theAvengers : Infinity WarBlu - ray release that there is n’t a grand plan for the Marvel Cinematic Universe as sports fan believe there is , at least not one that require the dealership ’s directors . What Marvel Studios has done in crafting a cohesive , shared population that spans almost two dozen film is an extraordinary accomplishment in filmmaking , irrespective of what moviegoers may palpate about each movie ’s calibre or account . Bridging practically every major story discharge together foran ultimate showdown with Thanosis no loose exploit .
Anthony and Joe Russo’sAvengers : Infinity Warwas mean to be a climax of all those storylines , run short back all the elbow room to Jon Favreau ’s firstIron Manmovie from 2008 . And while Phase 1 of the MCU was all build up to the Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes uniting for the first time in Joss Whedon’sThe Avengersin 2012 , the respite of the cinematic existence has been leading up to the Avengers ' big battle with Thanos inAvengers 3 . That require intricate plotting from the creative minds at Marvel Studios , but there has n’t been a full - fledge lofty programme that charts every major result in the MCU .
On theAvengers : Infinity WarBlu - ray release , James Gunn says in " The Directors ' Roundtable " featurette that Marvel directors do n’t have a single-valued function / chart / document lay out the hereafter of the integral Marvel Cinematic Universe : " There ’s a belief out there that somehow , over the past however many days , we sat in a room and we number up with this long big news report that leads to this one thing , and it ’s just not the way it is . "
However , that ’s not to say that there is n’t some semblance of a plan going on behind the picture , but the only mortal who really has that programme laid out in some way , Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe , or form is Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige . But even then , plans have always change somewhat at the last minute , such as theintroduction of Spider - Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universeand fast - track a solo movie for that character . In the same roundtable discussion , Favreau say :
" But it kind of is in a unearthly elbow room , and a lot of it ’s Kevin [ Feige ] . Right ? All kid aside … there was a map on the bulwark behind Tony Stark and Nick Fury at the destruction of Iron Man 2 that had Wakanda on it . And all those things I always thought were just Easter eggs and playfulness for the rooter , but he must have been keeping his journal and have the through - line of one person that really would come in and not just be an administrator , but actually have a creative point of view that you could go back - and - Forth River on . "
Overall , it seems that , while the MCU is sure enough going in a special direction , there are multiple pathways that it can take . For representative , theWakanda Easter egg inIron Man 2originally set up its possible appearance in Whedon’sAvengers : Age of Ultron , but that plan was changed , thus lead to the Wakanda that was shown in Ryan Coogler’sBlack Pantherfilm . The same affair applies to Wasp originally being be after for the first Avengers moving-picture show , not appearing in Peyton Reed’sAnt - Man and the Waspsix years later . What ’s more , the directors themselves never worry about what ’s happening in other movies , like Gunn not telling Marvel ( or the Russos ) about how heplanned on endingGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2 . They each desire to make their own movie , their room .
