9 Theories On How The MCU Could End
1. It Never Ends
Fans have speculated about how the MCU might end and Steven Spielberg reckons its conclusion is inevitable, but what if it simply endures?
Let's face it, there's no end in sight right now. Even the Marvel films that are considered underwhelming pull in the kind of box office buck and fresh reviews that most other franchises can only dream of.
The movie series is modelled on its Marvel Comics counterpart, playing out as an ongoing, interconnected story, and the original comic books have been running uninterrupted since the early 1960s. Granted, there have been reboots hard and soft over the years, but the books have always existed within the Marvel universe.
Every time Spielberg's prophesy of doom threatens to come to pass, a comic book movie like Guardians of the Galaxy or Captain America: The Winter Solider comes along and proves just how flexible this genre really is.
Perhaps the films will enjoy the same level of longevity as the comics, undergoing various restarts across the generations, but always existing under the banner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
