10 Things You Didn't Know About The Marvel Cinematic Universe

4. Edgar Wright Inadvertly Helped To "Shape" The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Despite that fact that talented director Edgar Wright left Marvel's Ant-Man due to creative differences, a project he had been working on with Marvel ever since 2006, there's a lot more to the story other than what we know about his disillusion with the movie's tone. Although Wright only signed on officially as Ant-Man's de facto director in 2012, he had been developing it for years beforehand, and in doing so, left his mark. Simply put, it was - according to Marvel God Kevin Feige - Edgar Wright's pitch for Ant-Man in 2006 that helped to define what would eventually become the MCU. "We changed, frankly, some of the MCU to accommodate this version of Ant-Man," he said. "Knowing what we wanted to do with Edgar and with Ant-Man, going years and years back, helped to dictate what we did with the roster for Avengers the first time."
