When it comes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are a lot of big players and superheroes that have become household names, thanks to the hugely successful films they've all been a part of. As one of the biggest juggernauts in the movie world, the MCU shows no signs of slowing down, but that doesn't mean each of the characters will get solo outings.

Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and even Black Panther have been given the opportunity to tell their stories on the big screen away from collaborative 'Avengers' releases, but that isn't a courtesy that will definitely be extended to Mark Ruffalo's adaptation of the Hulk.

The DC Extended Universe is without a doubt going through a major uplift as of late, following the hugely successful release, critical and commercial response to 'Wonder Woman'. Taking in over $800 million in the box office across the globe, the film quickly became the DCEU's most-loved flick, largely in part to its lead in Gal Gadot and female director Patty Jenkins.

Kevin Feige has nothing but praise for DC

'Wonder Woman' came just at the right time for the DCEU, which was facing critical negativity following the release of 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' and 'Suicide Squad', despite both making hundreds of millions of dollars in the box office and being enjoyed by fans.

Chris Hemsworth is the man leading the charge as the titular hero, but finds himself here held captive on a different planet entirely, without his hammer and forced into battle against former friend the Hulk. Will he be able to make it back to his home planet of Asgard and prevent the impending doom of Ragnarok?

There's no denying the incredible success the Marvel Cinematic Universe has seen. Whether you're a huge fan of Captain America, an Iron Man loyalist or something in-between, you'd be hard-pressed to say you've never sat down and enjoyed at least one of the instalments in the current version of the MCU.

Kevin Feige doesn't reveal TOO much about the upcoming 'Infinity War' movie

Introducing an Avengers team like no other, the MCU has served to deliver action-packed films in the past few years for both children and adults; movies injected with humour that still allow a great storyline to flow through them.

For years, fans of Marvel comic books have been able to get their live action adaptation kicks both from the big and small screens, with the release of a variety of films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and beyond, as well as television series such as 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.' and Netflix originals like 'Jessica Jones'. It's fair to say that the entertainment industry is hugely saturated with Marvel content.

For many years, the prospect of an R-rated movie set within the Marvel universe was hugely unlikely. Then came along the anti-hero Deadpool and, upon claiming his own solo film with Ryan Reynolds in the titular role, the movie was slapped with the highest certification and Hollywood was officially shaken up.

There was no telling whether or not 'Deadpool' would be a success, but fans voted with their cash in the box office and delivered record-breaking numbers for the R-rated release.

Iron Man 3 director Shane Black has shed new light on the sexism in the movie industry, by describing how the villain in the 2013 Marvel film had to be changed from female to male, to help toy sales. Speaking to Uproxx, Black said that after the draft of the film’s script was finished, he received a memo saying the villain’s gender had to be changed to male, because a female toy wouldn't sell as well.

Shane Black has revealed how Iron Man 3’s villain was changed from male to female.

“All I’ll say is this, on the record: There was an early draft of Iron Man 3 where we had an inkling of a problem,” Black began. “Which is that we had a female character who was the villain in the draft.” The character is thought to be Rebecca Hall’s Maya Hansen, who ended up having a much smaller part.

The President of Marvel Studios has revealed that the movies franchise will feature a lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender character “in the next decade or sooner”.

Kevin Feige was interviewed by Collider and Slash over the weekend, within days of the historic federal ruling which legalised same sex marriage across the entirety of the United States, and inevitably the portrayal of homosexuality in the Marvel universe cropped up on both occasions.

While there are no concrete plans in place to include such a character in any of the movies scheduled – basically, up until the end of the decade – Feige suggested that it would be a certainty at some stage. “Well in the drawing board going up to 2019 it remains to be seen,” he told Collider.

Kevin Fiege opened up on the sheer amount of fan demand for both Black Panther and Captain Marvel, confirming that, behind Iron Man 4 and Avengers 3, it’s what the Marvel fanatics are pining for the most. 

“They're both characters that we like, that development work has been done, it's continuing to be done on, and certainly it's the question I get asked more than anything else, more than Iron Man 4, more than Avengers 3,” he explained. “That's sort of the first time that's really happened to us, so I think that makes a difference.”

OK, so it probably wasn't completely unexpected - someone will have known than Tom Hiddlestone as Loki was going to come and take over from Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige. Mid-way through announcing that his production company was in post-production of new movie Thor: The Dark World, Feige's microphone was cut off and the lights went off. Over the PA system came a rather familiar venomous voice: "Humanity! Look how far you've fallen. Lining up in the Sweltering heat for hours, huddling together in the dark, like beasts!"

Like a storm the lights flashed back on, revealing supervillain Loki clad in full costume as he embraced the deafening screams from the Comic-Con masses. Loki (AKA Tom Hiddlestone) smiled a wicked smile as fans began chanting his name. "I am burdened with glorious purpose," bellowed Loki, striding over to dismiss Feige before he conducted the hoardes to scream his name once more. "It seems I have an army," the British-born Hiddlestone, indicating to one of the massive screens, "Feast your eyes!"
