Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Marvel Cinematic Universe #

What is the difference between the chronological narrative order and the exit order? #

The exit order (or film release) follows exactly the dates in which the films arrived in the rooms. This is the recommended method for those who watch movies for the first time, since it respects the natural evolution of the franchise and the surprises of post-credit scenes. The chronological order, instead, reorganizes the films according to the year in which the events of the plot take place (for example, starting from Captain America - The first revenger, set in the 1940s).

What is the very first MCU movie to watch? #

The film that officially began at the Marvel Cinematic Universe is Iron Man, released in May 2008, directed by Jon Favreau and starring an unforgettable Robert Downey Jr.

The almost totality of films, short films and canonical television series of MCU is available in streaming on demand on Disney+, the official platform that houses a macro-section entirely dedicated to the works of Marvel Studios.
