Marvel Studios Will Release Official Timeline To Address Confusions

Marvel’s Cinematic Universe has generally been pretty easy to follow. The first Iron Man happened in 2008, the next few films happened over the course of a week, The Avengers soon after, and while it becomes very clear what order these films happen in, a couple recent entries have muddied the water.

First off was Doctor Strange, where the duration of the film’s timeline was unclear (just how long was he training?). And then there was Spider-Man: Homecoming, which picks up immediately after Avengers before getting pushed to several years later. Some see this as proof that these films take place in the future (though that’s generally based on the assumption that The Avengers takes place in 2012, not in 2009).

So what’s the answer? Marvel will soon have an answer. Speaking with Screen Rant, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige said:

“All of that debate has encouraged us. We are going to be publishing an official, and I’m not sure when, or in what format, an official timeline. It’ll probably be apart of ah, I don’t know, apart of an in print that you can fold out and look at. But suffice to say, only in limited cases do we ever actually say what the actual years are because we never want to be tied down to a particular year and I think people assume that whenever the movie is released is when is when the movie is taking place, and that is not the case.”

That’s good news and bad news. It’s good that we’ll eventually be getting an official answer, but bad in that we just don’t know when. Plus, with Marvel now churning out 3 movies a year, it won’t take long for that official slate to become obsolete.

But still, better some answer than no answer, right?
