May the 4th might be a day most people associate with Star Wars, but it’s also an important date in Marvel history. On this day ten years ago, The Avengers hit theatres. At the time, it was the first major team up in the MCU and saw Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) fighting Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and saving the day in the Battle of New York. The Avengers also marked the first time Ruffalo appeared as Hulk, so the actor took to social media today to celebrate his tenth MCU anniversary.
