Iron Man sacrifices himself to save humanity. Captain America gets to wield Thor’s hammer. A Thanos from the past finds out what they’re up to and travels forward in time to stop them. Members of the squad travel to different moments in time to retrieve the Infinity Stones, bring them back to the present (2023) and use them to snap everyone back into existence. But then Scott Lang wakes up and sets a new plan in motion, and the heroes finally come back together to travel through time in the hopes of saving the 50 percent of life that disappeared. Captain Marvel has a new haircut, Captain America is running group therapy in New York, Black Widow is eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The movie picks up five years later in 2023 (gasp!) and the surviving heroes are spread across the world and galaxies. MCU Timeline: 2018-2023 Avengers: Endgame (released in 2019) Just kidding: They have another decade of movies planned. The Avengers are too noble to kill each other in order to save the universe-which is too bad because Thanos destroys half of all life in the universe once he has all six stones. And he forces Wanda to destroy the Mind Stone powering Vision, but then turns back time and takes it anyway. He messes with Star-Lord by forcing him to shoot Gamora to save the Soul Stone-though he uses the Reality Stone to show Star-Lord that was all an illusion. He successfully gains the Space Stone from Loki by threatening his brother, Thor. Thanos’ basic strategy is threaten to kill one superhero so another superhero will give in and hand him an Infinity Stone with mostly positive results. Ant-Man (released in 2015)Īnyway, considering that he’s been eyeing these stones for almost a decade and acquired none, he is able to snag all six surprisingly quickly, though at a runtime of 2 hours and 40 minutes, it may not feel that way for the audience. He puts on a golden glove called the Infinity Gauntlet that can hold each powerful gem and says “Fine, I’ll do it.” This line doesn’t totally make sense since Ultron was neither a minion of Thanos nor trying to get an Infinity Stone, but don’t overthink it. Important Post-Credits Scene: Thanos is finally fed up with his minions failing to attain the Infinity Stones. Oh, also Hulk and Black Widow are in love now, which is outrageous and dropped immediately in the next Avengers movie. Together the Avengers destroy Ultron but also kill almost everyone in Sokovia. Ultron develops an extremely convoluted plan to turn Sokovia into a meteor that will crash into earth. He’s maybe invincible? And also a ghost who can move through walls? They name him Vision (Paul Bettany), and he has even vaguer powers than Scarlett Witch. The Avengers, undeterred by how badly the Ultron experiment went, create a new superhero using the Mind Stone and Tony’s A.I. Read More: Everything You Need to Know About Loki and Time Travel in the MCU It’s unclear what “year” this all happens, or whether you can really assign a year to that event at all given that the Time Variance Authority is described as being set in the “void at the end of time.” Let’s just say, “Time is mysterious,” and move on. Sylvie kills He Who Remains, and it’s a huge mistake: Loki finds himself stranded in a universe where Kang the Conquerer has taken over. He Who Remains defeated an unsubtly named bad guy variant of himself called Kang the Conquerer, and created one true timeline to prevent Kang from trying to rule the whole multiverse. Loki and Sylvie uncover the man behind the “master timeline,” He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors). Loki falls in love with her (himself?) because he’s an egomaniac. Loki finds out that there are multiple possible timelines with multiple “variants” of himself across them, including a female Loki who goes by Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino). Loki begins with a group called the Time Variance Authority apprehending Loki for diverging from the master timeline.
