Phase 1 of Marvel’s masterplan kicked-off way back in 2008 with Iron Man along with The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger and Iron Man 2. These movies led to Marvel’s first ensemble movie – Avengers Assemble.

Phase 2 kicked off with Iron Man 3 and along with Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy led to Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Ant-Man surprised audiences and in Phase 3 was followed up by the magnificent Captain America: Civil War, Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming and Thor: Ragnarok.

The final chapter before Avengers: Infinity War was Black Panther, with Ant-Man and the Wasp heading to cinemas later in the year.

Avengers: Infinity War is released on April 26th 2018.

What is Avengers: Infinity War about?

Marvel are, of course, very secretive about the plot.
