25 Best Easter Eggs & References In The MCU So Far

21. Stan Lee's Cameos (All Films)

Rather than including any of Stan Lee's individual cameos, we've included Stan Lee's collective cameos as one concept - because no Marvel Easter egg list would really be complete without them. Stan Lee is a Marvel god. He is an acclaimed American comic book writer, editor, publisher, media producer, television host, actor, voice actor and former president and chairman of Marvel itself and he is responsible for the creation of a number of Marvel's top characters - including Marvel Cinematic Universe heroes like Iron Man, Thor and the Hulk. His cameos in this franchise have varied from a man who tried to move Thor's hammer in "Thor", to a man who drank a soda with some of Bruce Banner's blood in it in "The Incredible Hulk", and from a man who didn't believe in superheroes in "The Avengers", to a Xandarian ladies' man in "Guardians of the Galaxy". Love them or hate them, Stan Lee's cameos are now a staple part of Marvel movie lore - no more so than in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
