Marvel Cinematic Universe Phases (Hasamu Jenkins)

This is my version of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Most things stay the same, but I would have done stuff differently with some of the earlier movies. For example, I would have had the Mandarin be an actual threat in Iron Man 3 and have Wanda and Pietro established as mutants early on. With the launch of Disney+ on November 12, 2019, Kevin Feige took that to his advantage to make miniseries and tv shows that tie directly in with the movies. After Marvel / Disney cancelled the MCU Netflix shows in early 2019, Disney+ decided to take the Netflix heroes under their wing. The format of episodes stay the same for the Netflix shows (13 episodes each season, released all at one time).
