“The connectivity never leads the creative charge but it enhances it for us,” Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige told ComicBook.com ahead of the release of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. This “connectivity” started with Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk in 2008 lead to The Avengers in 2012, bringing together six super heroes who debuted across five prior films. Fast forward to 2018 and more than 30 super heroes are on the poster for Avengers: Infinity War and the next year Avengers: Endgame becomes the biggest box office hit of all time. It is all fueled by characters, actors, and filmmakers which audiences became attached to over the course of a decade, complimented by the interconnected nature of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Following the success, it will likely be quite some time before audiences get to assemble for a fifth (and quite different) Avengers movie.
