If you want to watch Endgame, but feel daunted by the sheer size of the MCU, never fear!

Here's everything you need to know.

What is the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

The Marvel Cinematic Universe - or MCU for short - is the shared place where all 22 films featuring the comic book characters are set.

Each tells its own distinct story but also connects with other films in the MCU, to tell an overarching tale. It's a technique Marvel Comics pioneer Stan Lee also used in his comics.

The MCU is the most successful film franchise of all time, making more than $18.2bn (£13.7bn) to date.
