The Marvel Cinematic Universe is arguably one of the greatest superhero universes ever created with a string of compelling films and a perfectly solid storyline that follows through every phase of the MCU. With an ever-growing audience, many new fans are struggling with which order to watch the massive pile of Marvel movies to understand what happened before the ultimate showdown in Avengers: Endgame. So, all you new fans, welcome to the world of Marvel and sit back, relax and go through this article where I'll help you with the best order to watch Marvel movies and TV shows before the endgame.

Captain America may not be the first movie to come out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but this is the movie that sets the stage for all things, you know, Marvel. This movie is set in the World War II era when Steve Rogers received the super soldier serum that turned him into our beloved Captain America. This movie also introduced us to the Tesseract, which we later came to know as one of the Infinity Stones.

This is also the film that introduces us to HYDRA, a scientific division of Nazis, which later became independent and played a major antagonistic role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

I know what you must be thinking, "But this movie came out in 2019?" Yes, it did. But hear me out, the release date is irrelevant in this context because the movie is set in 1995, which puts it before any other Avenger movie or even the Avengers initiative. This movie is good for some insight and highlights some key MCU flashbacks, including the famous story of how Nick Fury lost his eye.
