10. Thor: The Dark World

Being the writer and director of two of the most successful entries into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it will come as no surprise that Joss Whedon has been involved in several other MCU titles. It isn't just directing post-credit scenes that tie directly into his own films however.

Whedon's history as a script doctor and enthusiasm for the MCU characters made him a natural choice to help Thor: The Dark World's director Alan Taylor tweak the script to ensure it represented the wider vision of the universe.

Taylor said of Whedon's help, "Joss came in to save our lives a couple of times," and joked that he was airlifted into London to help with a difficult scene, "like SWAT or something". Whedon was also involved in additional scenes that added more Loki to the film, and helped with an emotional scene with Thor and Jane to help them be "much better and lighter on their feet".

Although not a momentous contribution, his tweaking was paramount to the finished film.
