![]() Since it was released after Infinity War, but ends at the same moment, it feels safe to place it here. Most of the film takes place somewhat pre- Infinity War, but the post-credits scene involves a bunch of folks disintegrating in “the blip” (after Scott zips into the quantum realm). Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)Īnt-Man and the Wasp is tricky to place in terms of chronology and watch order. Infinity War is soundly dated by the five-year gap from “blip” in 2018 to “snap” in 2023. ![]() But most of Thor takes place in 2011 we know this because The Avengers (which takes place in 2012) contains this line by Nick Fury: “Last year, Earth had a visitor from another planet who had a grudge match that leveled a small town.” He’s talking about Thor, of course–and that grudge match also falls during Fury’s Big Week.) as a reason to put Thor first in the chronology. Oh, you bet: we were tempted to use the Frost Giants’ invasion of Norway in 965 A.D. Just on its own, the film suggests it occurs in 2007 (half a decade after Banner was exposed to the gamma radiation in 2002) but the scene in which Tony approaches General Ross allows the film to be retconned to fall during Fury’s Big Week in 2011. Is Edward Norton’s The Incredible Hulk even canon? Well, Tony Stark appears in the post-credit scene –and it’s referenced in that timeline–so we’re including it here. Iron Man 2 occurs during what became known as “Fury’s Big Week” – when Nick Fury begins pulling together the Avengers-to-be. Set six months after the events of the first film, Iron Man 2 continues Tony’s saga of coming to terms with the potential (and potential threats) of his Stark Industries tech. After he awakens from his ice-entrapment in 2011, Cap meets Nick Fury and is set on the path that will lead to the formation of the Avengers. Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)Ĭaptain America: The First Avenger takes place between 1942-1945. We’re cheating a bit here, but because the movie begins in 5,000 BC, we’re gonna say you can watch it for, for total completism. Eternals (2021)Įternals is the newest MCU movie streaming on Disney+, is also, the one that covers the most amount of time. So, with all those caveats in mind, here’s the in-universe chronology of the MCU Avengers-centric films and TV shows. If you’re curious about where Loki happens, the short answer is it begins in 2012, right after The Avengers, but then goes off-the-rails. And we’re also leaving out the timeline confounding out-of-time Loki. While very Avengers-ey, we’re not including either Agent Carter or Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ![]() ![]() What we have here is our best assessment of how all the Avengers movies–and the most recent Disney+ shows–fall chronologically within the MCU timeline. ![]()
