Disney is sitting pretty with both the Star Wars Universe and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in their pockets. But the MCU and Star Wars have much more in common than just a shared owner. As one of the most popular franchises in movie history, Star Wars has had a pretty strong influence over the development of Marvel films. Your favorite heroes like Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Star-Lord and more actually owe a lot to the likes of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Chewbacca. Let’s check out some ways in which Star Wars influenced the MCU as we know it.

Featuring:

LEVEL OF DETAIL
You can rewatch Marvel movies a bunch of times and see something new with each viewing. According to Kevin Feige, that’s thanks to Star Wars.
SPIDER-MAN
What better way to make audiences like a character while also hinting that he’s a little nerdy? Make him a Star Wars fan!
SPACE SAGA
Would Guardians of the Galaxy ever have been greenlight if Star Wars hadn’t paved the way for it?
THE WINTER SOLDIER
The characters don’t go to space in this movie, but the directors admit that it’s a very “Star Wars” kind of film.
HELA REVEAL
Darth Vader being Luke’s father is a historic plot twist - so historic in fact that it changed a plot point in Thor: Ragnarok.
