The Marvel Extended Universe (MEU) is a standalone multimedia franchise and shared universe inspired by Marvel Comics characters and storylines. While drawing heavily from comic continuity—particularly Earth-616—the MEU operates independently from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), presenting a reimagined continuity with its own history, tone, and long-term narrative architecture. franchise spans theatrical films, streaming television series, and special presentations, with an emphasis on serialized world-building, comic-accurate characterizations, and genre diversity. Unlike the MCU’s gradual origin-focused approach, the MEU begins in a world where superheroes, mutants, and enhanced individuals are already established, allowing for immediate exploration of legacy, politics, and cosmic-scale threats.defining feature of the MEU is its “Variant Casting Model.” Certain actors from the MCU reprise roles, but portray alternate-universe interpretations of their characters.These are not multiverse crossovers, but completely separate incarnations with distinct histories, motivations, and tonal differences.
