Creator Credits: The Marvels (2023)

There's been a lot of discussions online as to why this film failed to earn a profit at the box office as it is the lowest-earning Marvel Cinematic Universe film yet. I saw many suggested it was because the film required viewers to be familiar with the Disney+ shows WandaVision and Ms. Marvel but heck, my wife hadn't seen either of those programs or Captain Marvel and she followed the plot just fine.

I suppose the viewpoint I'm most convinced by is that filmgoers are less interested in the Marvel Cinematic Universe overall - that Avengers: Endgame has been widely viewed as a jumping-off point and now we're seeing which properties are the ones viewers are most interested in.

As ever, I appreciate any corrections to this list. My full list of creators whose works have been adapted to the Marvel Cinematic Universe is right here.
