Hidden realities: 7 Behind the scenes secrets that could have changed the MCU forever
Ant Man The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has become a cultural phenomenon, weaving intricate storylines and introducing iconic characters that have captivated audiences worldwide. However behind the scenes, numerous creative decisions and near-misses could have dramatically altered the trajectory of this cinematic juggernaut. Here are seven lesser-known behind-the-scenes facts that shed light on the MCU's evolution. Iron man's almost cameo in Sam Raimi's Spiderman 2 In the early 2000s, Marvel contemplated integrating Tony Stark into Sam Raimi's Spider-Man universe. Plans were in motion for Stark to assist Dr. Otto Octavius in developing his mechanical arms in 'Spider-Man 2.' However, this crossover was ultimately shelved possibly due to the lukewarm reception of Spider-Man 3. This decision delayed Iron Man's cinematic debut until 2008, when Robert Downey Jr. donned the suit in a film that would launch the MCU. Gal Gadot's near role as Nebula Before Karen Gillan's portrayal of Nebula in 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' the role was offered to Gal Gadot. Scheduling conflicts and budgetary constraints led Gadot to decline, paving the way for her iconic role as Wonder Woman in the 'DC Extended Universe.' Interestingly, Jason Momoa was also considered for the role of Drax, suggesting a potential MCU lineup reminiscent of the Justice League. Wasp's intended introduction in 'The Avengers' Joss Whedon initially planned to introduce Janet van Dyne, the original Wasp, in 2012's 'The Avengers.' Concerns over Scarlett Johansson's availability as Black Widow prompted Whedon to consider Wasp as a replacement. Ultimately, Johansson reprised her role and Wasp's introduction was postponed until Ant-Man and the Wasp in 2018. A week that shaped the MCU A fascinating detail from the MCU timeline reveals that the events of 'Iron Man 2,' 'The Incredible Hulk' and 'Thor' all transpire within the same week. This convergence of storylines underscores the interconnectedness of the MCU and sets the stage for the formation of the Avengers. Benedict Cumberbatch's dual role in 'Doctor Strange' In 'Doctor Strange,' Benedict Cumberbatch not only portrayed the titular character but also lent his voice and motion capture performance to the film's antagonist, Dormammu. This dual role showcases Cumberbatch's versatility and adds a unique layer to the film's production. Tom Hiddleston's brief turn as Captain America During the filming of 'Thor: The Dark World,' Tom Hiddleston donned Captain America's costume for a scene where Loki impersonates the superhero. While Chris Evans ultimately portrayed the scene in the final cut, Hiddleston's version remains a testament to the playful dynamics on set. Captain America's early cameo in 'The Incredible Hulk' A deleted scene from 'The Incredible Hulk' features a glimpse of Captain America's frozen body, predating his official introduction in 'Captain America: The First Avenger.' This early nod to the character highlights Marvel's long-term vision for its interconnected universe. These behind the scenes revelations offer a glimpse into the complex decision-making processes that have shaped the MCU. Each choice from casting decisions to storyline adjustments has contributed to the rich tapestry that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

31 Trends That Were Extremely Popular 15 Years Ago, But Now They'll Make Us All Say "Uhh, What Was That All About?!"
The 2010s were a pretty WEIRD time. It was essentially the first first full decade where social media was everywhere, and trends would spread like wildfire because of that. Looking back, we were all kinda cringy — we just didn't know it back then. So recently, the people of Reddit have been naming some things that were "popular in the 2010s," but "didn't maintain popularity in the 2020s." And TBH, I forgot about a LOT of these trends. Let's dive in, shall we? 1. "Girls wearing bowler hats with a mustache tattooed on the side of their finger." — MF-Geuze 2. "I could probably name like 20 different things, but one of the biggest ones: Katy Perry." "You just had to be there for her absolute cultural titan status, and now she's been reduced to a has-been — or a Vegas resident act at best. In 2013, it would be hard to imagine the day." — Napoleon333 4. "Statement necklaces with peplum tops." — RavenUberAlles 5. "Vine." — redliner88 "TikToks are just bad Vines." — obvious_freud 6. "Yik Yak." — Fog-Champ "Even if you didn't personally experience something that happened, you knew about it from Yik Yak, and because it was hyper-local, it was normally relevant to you in some way, unlike most social media." — FWR978 7. "Dressing like a lumberjack." — BrilliantNothing2151 "As someone who was trying to date men and also someone who hates beards, this was a really rough time for me." — sylvnal 9. "The duck face selfie." — ogreloverboof "I remember a sub-trend of the duck face. They called it 'duck hunting' and you'd go around commenting 'BANG' on duck-face photos." — ljb2x 10. "Apparently, going to the movie theater." "Never really recovered post-COVID." — BeekyGardener 11. "Kanye." — i__hate__stairs 12. "Not sure about the rest of the world but certainly in the UK, until around 2015-ish, walking around school with your trousers awfully low, exposing your neon boxers." "Thought we were the absolute bollocks then." — x99kjg 13. "Parkour." — Jdnlk13 "Still see some kids jumping around occasionally and think about joining in. My knees hurt too much now, though." — aviodallalliteration 14. "MP3 Players and iPods. Spotify basically took over." — mikel145 16. "The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)." — bflaminio "The problem with the MCU is that it felt as if everything was building towards Endgame and once it was over with, everything after felt unnecessary. For me, that felt like the best place to stop, and nothing since has made me say 'I want to check this out.' Bringing back Robert Downey Jr. isn't making me say 'Yes, I am interested.' It is making me say 'So, they are completely out of ideas.'" — Worth_Box_8932 17. "Fidget spinners." — Mementoes121655 Kristal O'Neal / Getty Images 19. "Going out to clubs and bars dressed like you just got out of the office, with a poof on top of your head." — k_qu33n 20. "CUPCAKES." "Fucking cupcakes everywhere." — yeuzinips Chameleonseye / Getty Images 21. "Bacon obsession." — No-Manufacturer4916 "I always hated that because 9/10 times it ended up tasting like dog food." — Mrchristopherrr 22. "Kik Messenger." — Thtguy1289_NY "I remember getting my first nudes from a bot on Kik. My mum let my brother and me use it 'because it was safer,' but that changed pretty quickly." — GyataMoko 23. "Galaxy leggings!" — kate_rini21 Lisa5201 / Getty Images 24. "My Little Pony." "Thankfully." — Unicorn_Puppy 25. "Trivia Crack." – ScorpionX-123 "Trivia Crack was something else. The questions were either insanely simple or super hard. Like either 'Which of these words is the word 'the'?' or 'George Washington's cousin's sister had a boyfriend. What was his middle name?'" – afoz345 26. "Silly Bandz." — SeaworthinessEmpty93 Dedraw Studio / Getty Images 27. "Dubstep." "I haven't heard Skrill drop it hard in years." — napleonblwnaprt 29. "Planking." — Bento_Fox 30. "The Harlem Shake." — Kamoebas "That trend annoyed me so badly, because there already is a Harlem Shake! It's a legitimate dance that's been around for way longer than a weird video trend." — RamblinWreckGT 31. And finally: "Indie rock/alternative rock became a dominant style of pop music for a little bit." "Artists like Mumford & Sons, fun., Florence + the Machine, and even Fall Out Boy came back from their hiatus. It was a nice break from over-produced electronic pop." – SaintSean128 "Yes, the brief moment in time my favorite style of music was mainstream." – Ferreteria

Catching Up With Captain America
The Marvel Cinematic Universe was vastly different when the last Captain America movie premiered nine years ago. In 'Captain America: Civil War,' the supervillain Thanos had not yet snuffed out half of humanity, Tony Stark was still alive and the vibranium shield of Captain America still belonged to Steve Rogers. Now, in 'Captain America: Brave New World' (in theaters), the shield and its hefty responsibilities have passed to Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), the winged Avenger who must decipher the origins of an attack on the President. The film's plot draws on classic Marvel movies like 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' and 'Avengers: Endgame,' but it also features characters from more recent offerings, such as the Marvel series on Disney+, 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.' Here's what you need to know before watching. How did Sam Wilson become Captain America? For much of the history of the M.C.U., Captain America was synonymous with Steve Rogers, the frail but big-hearted young man who transformed into one of Marvel's most recognizable heroes when he received a super serum and an indestructible shield. In 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier,' Rogers befriends Wilson, an Air Force veteran grieving the loss of his wingman. Equipped with the Falcon flight suit, Wilson joins forces with Rogers to combat terrorists and other threats. He quickly becomes one of Captain America's closest allies, siding with Rogers when the Avengers split into feuding factions in 'Captain America: Civil War.' Wilson was one of the many people who disappeared in the five-year 'Blip' caused by Thanos's snap, but he reappeared in 'Avengers: Endgame.' In 'Endgame,' Rogers goes back in time to return the Infinity Stones but instead of returning to the present day, he decides to stay in the past and live a full life with his lover Peggy Carter. Wilson ultimately finds Rogers sitting on a bench, his face wrinkled and his body aged. Rogers hands him the shield and anoints him as the new Captain America. 'I'll do my best,' Wilson says.
