Marvel Studios: Why was Iron Man chosen as the first MCU film?

Marvel Studios has been delighting fans with their different superhero movies for over 10 years. We are curious to know what the MCU will look like in 20 years. If we go back to the very beginning of the franchise, we are forced to wonder why it all started with the Iron Man solo project. Why him and not another protagonist? According to film historian Ben Fritz, this was not Tony Stark the first choice of the MCU. The studios planned to start the franchise with Captain America, but to be sure, they carried out tests : “To decide which movie to make first, Marvel summoned people to discuss it. But they weren’t asked to define which stories and characters they would most like to see on the screen. Instead, Marvel assembled groups of children, showed them pictures of superheroes and described their abilities and weapons. Then they asked the children they would most like to play with. To everyone’s surprise, the answer was Iron Man “.

It is therefore the children who defined the premises MCU. Iron Man has evolved enormously over the years, and his adventure has ended in Avengers: Endgame. If it was not always appreciable and appreciated, today, it is one of the favorite superheroes of the fans. We even come to wonder what is the best trilogy of the franchise between that of Iron Man or that of Captain America. The answer is obviously subjective, but the adventures of Tony Stark seem to be the favorites. Who knows, without the kids choosing Iron Man as their favorite superhero, perhaps the MCU would never have been as successful today.
