Captain America is one of the most revered and respected superheroes across the world, whether it be cinema or comic books. Since the start of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the character has embodied courage, integrity, selflessness, and an unwavering commitment to do the right thing. So when Chris Evans’ Cap passed on the shield, many knew it would be a Herculean task to fill his shoes.

And it certainly seemed so when Wyatt Russell’s John Walker stepped in for the job in one of Marvel’s best series, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. As was expected, his Homelander-esque portrayal left many fans severely disappointed, proving that the shield is not just an object but a symbol of hope that not everyone can carry.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a world full of epic superheroes and characters, who are not as easy to embody. Apart from training, makeup, and costume, several actors had to undergo severe physical transformation to play their iconic characters. But nobody did it better than Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has produced hit after hit (along with the occasional miss) and, since 2008, grossed a massive $31 billion at the worldwide box office.
That makes it one of the biggest franchises ever and what Marvel Studios has done remains unprecedented. Under the watchful eye of Kevin Feige, a series of interconnected movies - and now TV shows - have been produced which are, essentially, like the comics come to life. The MCU has set an impossibly high benchmark which rival studios continue to try and emulate with little success.
2024 has seen the release of its one and only Marvel Studios movie and, with the Multiverse Saga receiving something of an overhaul at Comic-Con, we've decided to present you with our take on the McU's 10 best big screen releases.

It may be hard to believe, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe is currently old enough to get its very own driver's license. That's right; it's been sixteen years of epic storytelling, jaw-dropping action sequences, and tear-dropping moments. For more than a decade and a half, we've watched our favorite heroes come to life on the big screen, save the day, travel through time, and even break the multiverse.
But regardless of how many strengths the MCU has, one of its best will always be the on-point casting. We all know Robert Downey Jr. was born to play the billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist; Tony Stark. Much like him, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, and Jeremy Renner all perfectly fit their respective roles. So it's time to take a trip down memory lane and look how old the original six Avengers were when they started their epic journey on the MCU!

Robert Downey Jr. is coming back into the MCU, but not as Tony Stark. He will come into the MCU as a different character, and this time as a villain. He’s taking on the iconic role of Doctor Doom.
This has seen mixed reactions from fans. After all, he’s already made his mark on the MCU. Well, he’s not the only actor to step back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe but as a different character. Here are 13 who have done it before him, and some of them may surprise you.

The most obvious one, especially thanks to Deadpool & Wolverine, is Chris Evans. He initially stepped into the MCU as Johnny Storm, aka The Human Torch, in the first bunch of Fantastic Four movies as the MCU got off the ground.

It began with 2008’s “Iron Man,” a film that introduced the world to Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark with the hint that he could be part of something greater. Over 30 films later, the story of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is still being told, albeit with various tributaries and detours that introduce new characters and new worlds that may or may not cross paths one day. Each film in the MCU stands on its own to some degree, but like building blocks, they all connect as part of one interconnected universe. And in that way, watching the Marvel movies in order tells one grand story.
There are a couple of different ways to watch the Marvel movies in order, but below we run down how to watch the MCU in chronological and release date order. Indeed, some films like “Captain Marvel” and “Captain America: The First Avenger” are full-on prequels...

We finally have the first teaser trailer for Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft (via GameFragger.com) and, perhaps the most intriguing thing about this series is the fact it picks up after the events of the latest video game.
Typically, a show like this would be a straightforward adaptation of a game or an original story that draws inspiration from it. How accessible this "sequel" approach will make The Legend of Lara Croft remains to be seen, though the sneak peek promises a fun, action-packed adventure.
It was back in May that we learned Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Tomb Raider TV series is officially moving forward at Prime Video. However, that's set to be its own thing and has no ties to the games or previous movies starring Angelina Jolie and Alicia Vikander.
As for this Lara Croft, she'll be voiced by Captain America: The First Avenger...

"Captain America is arguably the most renowned hero in the Marvel Universe, widely known as 'The Timeless Hero.' The character's legacy, traversing from the World War II era to his resurgence in contemporary times, is truly monumental in both the world of Marvel Comics and the comic book genre as a whole. Despite fluctuating or shifting timelines, his 80-year tenure has yielded many diverse interpretations."
Created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. Steve Rogers was initially a frail young man who, despite his physical limitations, was determined to serve his country. His courage and unwavering resolve led him to volunteer for a secret government experiment, the Super-Soldier Program, where he was injected with the Super-Soldier Serum. This serum transformed Rogers into the peak of human physical potential, making him Captain America, a symbol of hope and patriotism.

Secret Invasion introduced audiences of the MCU to The Harvest, which had the Skrull going through the battlefield where Thanos fought he Avengers in Avengers: Endgame. Their objective was to collect DNA samples from all the enhanced beings that had spilled blood in the battle, be it Captain America, Captain Marvel, the Black Order, Black Panther, or Thor.

A theory on Reddit suggests that Captain America: Brave New World might carry over some plot points from Secret Invasion, specifically how Red Hulk was created. It is expected that the character will have a different origin story, and could reasonably be a Skrull agent, hearkening back to the ‘New World Order’ subtitle that was scrapped.

Loki season 2 marked his first foray into streaming and, as we're sure you'll agree, it's one of Marvel Studios' most visually stunning projects out of all those we've seen on the big and small screens.
Last week, we were fortunate enough to sit down with the Emmy nominee ("Outstanding Special Visual Effects In A Season Or A Movie") to discuss his work on the God of Mischief's return to Disney+ last year.
He calls Loki "one of the highlights of my MCU career from a visual point of view" and we started at the end by asking about the already-iconic moment Loki transforms into God Loki.

How Did Chris Evans Achieve That Skinny Look As Steve Rogers In Marvel’s First Captain America Film?

Captain America is one of the oldest Avengers in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. The iconic role was played by Chris Evans and the titular character required the actor to be in great physical shape, and Evans was up for the challenge to transform himself for the role.
In 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger, fans saw Evans’ Steve Rogers as a small and skinny character, but his body doubled when injected with a serum, becoming Marvel’s Captain America. However, his before-serum look was crucial for the films to show how Captain America was transformed, thanks to the effects of the Super Soldier Serum.

Lisa Westcott, the British makeup artist who won an Oscar for her work on 2012’s Les Misérables, has died, her husband told The Hollywood Reporter. She was 76.
Westcott died July 30 at her home in Oxford with her husband, Jeremy Ancock, and her twin children, George Ancock and Harriette Rothwell, with her. She was a staunch advocate for crew workers’ rights and fought fiercely for them to be upheld over the years, her family said.
She shared the Oscar for best makeup and hairstyling with Julie Dartnell for their efforts on the musical’s film adaptation that starred Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and Anne Hathaway.
The pair were photographed accepting the prestigious prize from Jennifer Aniston and Channing Tatum 11 years ago, beaming as they posed for photos afterward.
Westcott also earned two consecutive Oscar nominations for Mrs Brown (1997), starring Judi Dench, Billy Connolly and Gerard Butler, and Shakespeare in Love (1998), with Gwyneth Paltrow and Joseph Fiennes,...

That moment is probably engraved into the memory of every Marvel fan as one of the most legendary feats of the MCU. Standing 6 feet tall with a chiseled physique and oozing charm, it wasn’t a surprise when People Magazine named him the Sexiest Man Alive in 2022.

Despite the constant admiration and global recognition, there is one criticism that Evans has not been able to escape: the comparison of his height with other stars and some labeling him too short. Even though he stands 6 feet tall, Evans’ mother particularly despises this criticism about her son.

Deadpool and Wolverine is jam-packed with nods, references, and Easter eggs (maybe more than any previous superhero movie), and while quite a few couldn't be any more blatant, others are a little more subtle.
Now, one fan has noticed something that might just be foreshadowing the recent Sdcc announcement that Tony Stark actor Robert Downey Jr. will return to the MCU as the villainous Doctor Doom.
This doesn't really count as a major reveal, but just in case, spoiler warning.
When Wade Wilson and Logan are captured by Pyro and taken to Cassandra Nova's lair, they are greeted by a number of different characters and vehicles from earlier Marvel Studios and 20th Century Fox movies, including the Red Skull's ride from Captain America: The First Avenger.
The car looks practically identical - aside from one thing: Instead of the Hydra logo on the hood, it's Iron Man's symbol.

Marvel had a rough year in 2023. Many of its properties underperformed, and they lost their big villain due to Jonathan Majors being fired. Looking forward to their upcoming slate, comic fans have been excited about some of the studio’s projects over the next few years. Will these films help Marvel regain control? The upcoming Thunderbolts film has been one that fanboys have been hoping to see since the MCU started. With some recent news about the property coming up, it seems like the right time to break down what we know about the production.
Who Are The Thunderbolts?
The team first appeared in Marvel Comics in 1997 in an issue of The Incredible Hulk. They seemed to be a new group of superheroes that had arrived on the scene and gained acclaim very quickly. The reader was informed that the group was actually a group of supervillains led by Baron Zemo.

At this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios welcomed Joe and Anthony Russo back to the MCU by announcing them as the new directors of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
Shortly after that memorable Hall H panel concluded, the Russo Brothers described Secret Wars as "the book that made us fall in love with comics." Now, they shared a lengthier statement about their return and the decision to cast Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom.
You’re the best damn fans in the world, and we’ve missed you.
When we made Avengers: Endgame we truly believed that it was the end of the road for us in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

“You were an X-Man. You were the X-Man.” This line from Deadpool & Wolverine will likely become a classic among geek circles since it describes the importance of Hugh Jackman’s Logan, both to the Fox era of X-Men and to the brand as a whole. With that said, Deadpool & Wolverine was about the legacy of one specific Wolverine—or two, at any rate. And neither seems likely to be the Wolverine of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Which makes an eye-popping easter egg that was sneaked into Saturday night’s San Diego Comic-Con Hall H panel all the more shocking: Marvel is finding an in-canon reason to explain adamantium in “the sacred timeline,” and it has to do with one of the most controversial Marvel Studios films to date: 2021’s Eternals.

While the 2024 summer started on a sour note, it eventually picked up the pace with releases, including Inside Out 2 and Despicable Me 4. Now carrying this momentum forward, Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool & Wolverine has opened with a huge bang at the box office, making MCU the first film franchise to cross $30B at the global box office.
Moreover, the film, which was predicted to put the gigantic franchise back on the map after a string of disappointments, is tracking for a global opening weekend gross bigger than 7 MCU flicks.

Marvel’s newest super-team, the Thunderbolts, made their San Diego Comic-Con debut on Saturday via first-look footage — and a relatively tight-lipped cast — during the MCU panel.
The entire cast joined the Hall H stage with Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige, including David Harbour in costume as Red Guardian. But his colleagues didn’t get the memo. “Oh my god, you guys didn’t dress up?,” Harbour exclaimed. “Guys! Guys! I sent that email! We all said we were going to dress up because it was Comic-Con!” Harbour quickly left to change.
While info about the movie was kept to a minimum, some select nuggets included:
*Feige’s revelation that the group’s moniker isn’t related to Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, saying that sometimes comic book writers just use the same names.
*Of her character, Julia Louis-Dreyfus said, “Valentina is after power, control and, I would say, just generally she wants...

It was a meeting of Marvel titans at San Diego Comic-Con, where Marvel editor-in-chief C. B. Cebulski welcomed Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige for a conversation about collecting and the ways comic books inspire films (and vice versa).
Cebulski spent part of the panel showing off famous comic book art, and pared them with the scenes they inspired in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Among them was the iconic cover to 2007’s Civil War No. 7, which showed Captain America blocking Iron Man’s beam with his shield, and the cover to the 1939 classic Captain America No. 1, in which Cap punches Adolph Hitler in the face. Both moments inspired moments in Captain America: Civil War and Captain America: The First Avenger.
Feige remarked that it’d be cool if Disney+ had a feature that would allow one to scroll through a movie, and then see the comic book art that inspired the shot.

"Deadpool & Wolverine" finally ushers in the Fox universe of Marvel movies into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it offers a bit of a love letter to those early big screen adaptations of X-Men, Fantastic Four, and other comics turned into blockbusters with varying degrees of success. But since this is the first time Wade Wilson and Wolverine are entering the MCU, there are also plenty of Avengers Easter eggs and references to be found. While many of them are pretty obvious, especially those that Wade calls out directly with his ongoing meta-commentary, many of them can be hard to spot. But don't worry, we've got you covered.

Being a hero means embodying the courage to battle, defend, and rise unwaveringly against even the most formidable adversary. It also signifies putting one’s life at risk, again and again, until the battle is won or die trying. And in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this could not hold more true for Chris Evans’ character, Captain America.

Like horror, science fiction lends itself well to serialization. Fans of the genre love the chance to explore fantastical worlds far from our own, and once storytellers have developed a brand-new universe, those fans love having a reason to come back. From "Star Trek" to "Star Wars" (which are quite similar), from "The Terminator" to "The Thing," sci-fi franchises can spawn from anything given a strong enough premise.
Moviemaking takes time, though, and we also live in a world where projects are announced many years in advance. This can all make it frustrating to be a fan of sci-fi, often having to wait years to be able to return to a series that you love, even though new installments are constantly dangled over your head.

Joe Johnston’s 1991 superhero movie The Rocketeer begins in the usual way, with orange opening credits against a black screen. Only the slight tinkling of piano hints at something greater, little notes of inspiration under the art deco script on display. Sure enough, after the title reveal, the score pauses. The black screen is revealed to actually be the doors of a hangar bay, and the strings in James Horner’s score rise to a crescendo. They are announcing the hopes hanging on the yellow biplane that emerges.
A warm, confident scene of pilot Cliff Secord (Billy Campbell) proving to his mechanic Peevey (Alan Arkin) and their pals that he’s got what it takes to win a race is an odd way to open a superhero movie, even one of the pulp-inspired films that Hollywood cranked out after Batman hit it big in 1989.

The acting prowess of Chris Evans is known to many, as is his string of hit movies. However, in this list, his portrayal of Steve Rogers in the MCU’s Captain America stands the tallest. While the actor demonstrated the superhero magic on screen, there was a lot going on behind the scenes of the franchise that the fans and aficionados were unaware of.

Even going back to the 1940s, Captain America always had one of the silliest costumes in superherodom. Decked out in the colors and symbols of the American flag, and outfitted with a shield that looks like a stubborn decal left over from a model airplane, Captain America has always projected a form of patriotic tackiness that reminds one of overheated Fourth of July picnics, mosquito bites, and stale hot dog buns. Captain America was popular enough to survive the 1940s, however, and remains popular to this day.
Indeed, one must admire Marvel Studios for taking a wet blanket character like Captain America and selling him to audiences as something exciting and dynamic. The version of the character played by Chris Evans has, as of this writing, appeared in nine of the films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Many now like him again.

Captain America: The First Avenger was a period piece above everything else. The action exclusively took place in the 1940s, at the height of the Second World War. The film was a blending of genres, fusing superheroes with a war film aesthetic, a formula that Marvel only perfected with its later films.

However, the initial idea for a Captain America film would have not only complicated the story but would have also created an issue with how the character is perceived in the MCU. In a 2006 interview, Avi Arad revealed in an interview that the initial fan for a Captain America film would have been a scathing look at the realities and perception of history that we have in the modern world.

However, the initial idea for a Captain America film would have not only complicated the story but would have also created an issue with how the character is perceived in the MCU. In a 2006 interview, Avi Arad revealed in an interview that the initial fan for a Captain America film would have been a scathing look at the realities and perception of history that we have in the modern world.

Chris Evans’ Captain America was one of the founding heroes of the MCU and it’s difficult to imagine how the franchise would run without his presence. From The First Avenger to the Infinity War saga, he was at the center of every battle along with his comrades.

But, before the MCU was even established, there was already a dispute between Captain America’s creator and Marvel Studios. Joe Simon, the writer who created the figure alongside Jack Kirby, sued the studio for ownership of the character.

As the release of Anthony Mackie’s upcoming Captain America film approaches, speculation about Chris Evans reprising his iconic role has sparked debate among fans. In a recent interview, Evans appeared to resonate with Quentin Tarantino’s controversial statements, raising questions about his potential willingness to return to the superhero franchise.

Quentin Tarantino, despite his love of Marvel comics, has nonetheless voiced criticism of the franchise. Although he is not alone, he is joined by Martin Scorsese, another acclaimed director, who has also expressed doubts about whether Marvel films qualify as “real cinema.” Their comments have sparked ongoing debates within the industry and among fans about the artistic merits and cultural impact of superhero movies.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for pushing its boundaries every now and then. Being under Disney’s umbrella can be quite complicated for this effect; however, they have managed to find loopholes to help them through it. Some experiments when it comes to storytelling and thematics haven’t really worked for the franchise in the past few years. However, their biggest risk with the age ratings ended up performing excellently well.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3 was a masterpiece. The film established who the main character of the series was and did it in such a hard-hitting way that one could not help but leave the theaters in tears.
However, it is important to remember that the film took a lot of risks. While some were safer, some pushed the boundaries a little too much.

When Marvel Studios enlisted the Russo Brothers for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, many fans understandably questioned whether the filmmakers behind You, Me and Dupree were the right team for the job.
Well, the 2014 movie remains one of Marvel Studios' best, and Joe and Anthony delivered yet again with Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame.
They've since moved on from the MCU to focus on Agbo, a production label they can release their own movies through (with the biggest hit so far being Netflix's Extraction franchise starring Thor actor Chris Hemsworth).
While the Russo Brothers' time in the MCU appears to be over, Captain America: Brave New World Editor Matthew Schmidt recently updated his film credits and Joe and Anthony's names are included.
In a list of producers, we have Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier's Nate Moore...and the Russos!

When Captain America: The First Avenger Writers Settled The Debate About Chris Evans Played Steve Rogers( Photo Credit – Facebook )
Chris Evans’ Captain America is kind of the moral compass of the Avengers team, whose past was explored in 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger. However, there were quite a few things that bothered the fans, like how Steve Rogers became accustomed to the new world, and a bigger question than that was whether he was virg*n. A deleted scene explained how Steve got used to the modern world, and the doubt about his virgin*ty was cleared a decade later by the movie’s writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. Scroll below for the deets.
In the first movie, Steve is a skinny person who lacks the physique of a soldier, but his resolution and determination surpass everyone else’s. Thus, he was chosen to be given the super soldier serum and transformed physically.

In the film industry, there is perhaps no other actor who is more dedicated and talented than Christian Bale. He is the last of the stars, who would go to any extent to fully immerse themselves in the roles they play, without worrying about the impact it would have on their health. Some of his most iconic projects would be American Psycho, The Machinist, Ford v Ferrari, and many more.

Chris Evans retired from the Marvel Cinematic Universe for good after Avengers: Endgame in 2019. Yet, his charismatic portrayal of Captain America continues to create ripples among the fandom, particularly the ‘spectacular’ physique he built up for the role. Undergoing an extensive workout regimen along with 12-14 hours of daily shoots, the actor’s physical transformation is one of the best Hollywood has ever witnessed.

Fans of the AppleTV+ series Hijack have been forced to endure a long wait for the second season of the popular thriller.
The bad news is that they'll need to wait at least a few more months, as filming for Hijack Season 2 is currently underway in the UK.
The good news is that star Idris Elba will be joined by a top-tier supporting cast when the show eventually makes its way back to our screens.
Deadline reported today that three very talented stars are currently on set in London.
First off is Toby Jones, a British actor, who might he might be best known for his work in American period pieces, such as Frost/Nixon, My Week With Marilyn, and Infamous (in which he memorably portrayed Truman Capote).
While he's gained a reputation as an esteemed "actor's actor," Jones is no stranger to the world of action and green screens.

You probably know that Loki (Tom Hiddleston) was the big bad of 2012's "The Avengers" and his role there is why he's still the defining villain of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Not even Thanos can say he got his own TV series like Loki did! It's not just the God of Mischief being in the right place at the right time, though.
"Avengers" writer/director Joss Whedon overhauled Loki, turning the meek sad boy from 2011's "Thor" into a wickedly charismatic megalomaniac. Hiddleston took that change and ran with it, proving he can wield an evil grin as effectively as he can puppy dog eyes along the way. Every subsequent Loki appearance has been trying to meld the two characterizations; Loki's an evil bastard, but he does love his mum and big brother Thor (even if he loves himself a bit more).
Loki (really Hiddleston) holds the screen all on his own in "The Avengers.

It has been over five years since Avengers: Endgame was first released. Many chapters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe have opened and closed since. However, there is no denying that a piece of their fans’ hearts went with the final minutes of the film. Many stories ended when the 2019 movie was released, and audiences were forced to say goodbye to several characters they grew up with.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier can only be described as a masterpiece. The film perfectly exemplifies the Russo Brothers’ genius, showcasing excellent storytelling, fight sequences like no other, Oscar-worthy acting, and unparalleled cinematography. It was as though the entire cast and crew were in a harmonious dance, with everyone playing their part and doing their best to make one of the best films to come out in the MCU.
