When a Norse God from Asguard named Thor falls to Earth after his brother Loki took over the throne and banished Thor when Odin went into Odinsleep, Thor is found by Nick Fury the Director of a secret organization called S.H.I.E.L.D and recruited into a team of superheroes including Dr. Bruce Banner aka the Hulk, Hank Pym aka the Antman, Clint Barton aka Hawkeye, King Tchalla of Wakanda aka Black Panther, Janet Van Dyne aka Wasp, and Peter Parker aka Spider-Man. They all eventually have to work together to stop Loki from conquering Earth with the use of all of Asguard's forces. The movie ends with Thor sending Loki back to Asguard and having his friend Heimdall gatekeeper of the Bifrost destroy the rainbow bridge, trapping Loki on Asguard and Thor on Earth. During the post credits scene, we see Charles Xavier talking to Nick Fury about setting up a team of mutants the way Nick Fury did.
