text: Iron Man (2008)[edit]

text: Billionaire industrialist Tony Stark builds himself a suit of armor after he is taken captive by a terrorist organization. Free from his captors, he decides to upgrade and don his armor as Iron Man in order to hunt down weapons that were sold under the table.[18]

text: In April 2006, Marvel hired Jon Favreau to direct Iron Man,[6] with Arthur Marcum & Matt Holloway, and Mark Fergus & Hawk Ostby writing competing scripts.[6][19] Favreau consolidated both into one script, which was then polished by John August.[7] Robert Downey, Jr. was cast in the title role in September 2006, after growing out a goatee and working out to convince the filmmakers he was right for the part.[20] Principal photography began on March 12, 2007,[21] with the first few weeks spent on Stark's captivity in Afghanistan,[22] which was filmed in Inyo County, California.[23] Production also occurred on the former Hughes Company soundstages in Playa Vista, Los Angeles, California,[24] with additional filming at Edwards Air Force Base[25] and Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada.[26] Iron Man premiered at the Greater Union theater in George Street, Sydney, on April 14, 2008,[27] and was released internationally on April 30, and in North America on May 2.[28][29]

text: The film ends with a post-credits scene featuring Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, who approaches Stark regarding the "Avenger Initiative". Favreau said that he included the scene as "a little tip of the hat for the fans...a way to sort of tee up The Avengers." Jackson was only on set for a day, with a skeletal crew to avoid the news of his cameo leaking.[30] Captain America's shield is also visible in the background of a scene; it was added by an ILM artist as a joke, and Favreau decided to leave it in the film.[31]

text: The Incredible Hulk (2008)[edit]

text: After being exposed to gamma radiation that causes him to transform into the monstrous Hulk, scientist Bruce Banner goes on the run and isolates himself from his love, Betty Ross. Hunted by the military, Banner seeks to cure himself and prevent his condition from being weaponized.[32]

text: In January 2006,[33] Marvel reclaimed the film rights for the Hulk character from Universal Pictures after Universal failed to meet a deadline to develop a sequel to director Ang Lee's 2003 film Hulk.[34] Universal retained distribution rights for future Hulk films.[34] Instead of moving forward with a sequel, Marvel hired Louis Leterrier to direct The Incredible Hulk, a reboot.[8] Leterrier initially turned down the job out of respect for Lee, but later reconsidered and signed on.[8] The script was written by Zak Penn, who drafted a treatment for the 2003 film.[35] In April 2006, Edward Norton entered negotiations to portray Bruce Banner and rewrite Penn's script,[36] although Penn received sole credit for the screenplay.[9] Production began on July 9, 2007 and filming primarily took place in Toronto,[37] with additional filming in New York City and Rio de Janeiro.[38] The film premiered at the Gibson Amphitheatre on June 8, 2008, and was released on June 13.[39][40]

text: The film takes place simultaneously with the events of Iron Man 2 and Thor,[41] the former of which is set six months after the events Iron Man.[42] Downey briefly reprised his role from Iron Man as Tony Stark in a cameo appearance at the end of the film. Downey said that the filmmakers "were just cross-pollinating our superheroes. It happens to be a scene where I basically approach [actor William Hurt's character General Ross], and we may be considering going into some sort of limited partnership together. The great thing is he—and I don't want to give too much away—but he's in disrepair at the time I find him. It was really fun seeing him play this really powerful character who's half in the bag."[43] In addition, Captain America is briefly seen frozen in ice in an alternate opening of the film, included in the DVD release.[44]

text: Iron Man 2 (2010)[edit]

text: After Tony Stark reveals himself to be Iron Man, the U.S. government demands he hand over his technology. Meanwhile, a rival industrialist and a Russian scientist conspire to use his own technology against him.[45]

text: Immediately following the successful release of Iron Man in May 2008, Marvel Studios announced it was developing a sequel, Iron Man 2.[46] Favreau returned as director[10] and Justin Theroux was hired to write the screenplay, which would be based on an original story by Favreau and Downey.[11] In October 2008, Downey signed a new four-picture deal, that retroactively included the first film, to reprise his role and Don Cheadle was hired to replace Terrence Howard as James Rhodes.[47][48] Jackson signed on to reprise his role as Nick Fury from the Iron Man post-credits sequence in up to nine films,[49] and Scarlett Johansson was cast as the Black Widow, as part of a multi-film commitment.[50] Principal photography began April 6, 2009,[51] at the Pasadena Masonic Temple in Pasadena, California.[52] The majority of filming took place at Raleigh Studios in Manhattan Beach, California.[53] Other locations included Edwards Air Force Base,[54] Monaco,[55] and the Sepulveda Dam.[53] Iron Man 2 premiered at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, California on April 26, 2010,[56] and was released internationally between April 28 and May 7 before releasing in North America on May 7.[57]

text: The film is set six months after the events of Iron Man,[42] and takes place simultaneously with the events of The Incredible Hulk and Thor.[41] The filmmakers continued to reference other Marvel films by again including Captain America's shield. Favreau explained, "We introduced Captain America's shield briefly in one shot in the last film. So now it really was in his room, so we had to figure out how to deal with the reality that the shield was in his workshop."[31] A scene toward the end of Iron Man 2 in a S.H.I.E.L.D. safe house contains several Easter eggs, ranging from footage from The Incredible Hulk displayed on a monitor to pointers on a map indicating several locales related to other Marvel films, including one pointing toward a region of Africa in reference to the Black Panther.[58] A young Peter Parker appears as the child wearing an Iron Man mask who Stark saves from a drone; the appearance was confirmed in June 2017 by eventual Spider-Man actor Tom Holland, Kevin Feige and Spider-Man: Homecoming director Jon Watts.[59][60] The film's post-credits scene showed the discovery of Thor's hammer in a crater.[61]

text: Mark Protosevich was hired to develop a script for Thor in April 2006, after the rights were acquired from Sony Pictures.[6] In August 2007 Marvel hired Matthew Vaughn to direct the film,[63] however he exited the project in May 2008.[64] In September 2008, Kenneth Branagh entered into negotiations to replace Vaughn.[12] In May 2009, Chris Hemsworth was in negotiations to portray the titular character,[65] and Tom Hiddleston was set to play his brother, Loki.[66] Both actors were contracted to star in several films.[67] Marvel hired Ashley Edward Miller & Zack Stentz to write a new script for the film, which was then rewritten by Don Payne.[13] Production began on January 11, 2010 in Los Angeles, California,[68] before moving to Galisteo, New Mexico in March.[69] Thor had its world premiere on April 17, 2011 at the Event Cinemas theatre in George Street, Sydney[70] and a U.S. premiere on May 2 at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, California.[71] The film was released internationally from April 21 to 30, and on May 6 in North America.[72]

text: The film takes place simultaneously with the events of The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2,[41] the latter of which is set six months after the events of Iron Man,[42] Clark Gregg, who appeared in Iron Man and Iron Man 2 as S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Phil Coulson, reprised the role in Thor. About his role in Thor he stated, "Agent Coulson was one of the guys who wasn't really in the comic books, and he [had] a very kind of small role in Iron Man. And I was just very lucky that they chose to expand that character and [chose] to put him more into the universe of it."[73] After signing on to appear as Clint Barton / Hawkeye in The Avengers, Jeremy Renner made a cameo appearance as the character during a scene in Thor.[74] Branagh said that they "were always going to have a guy in a basket above the action where Thor breaks in the S.H.I.E.L.D. camp", and that he was thrilled when the producers told him they wanted to use Renner's Hawkeye for that role.[75] The film ends with a post-credits scene featuring Loki, watching as Erik Selvig and Nick Fury discuss the Tesseract.[76] The scene was directed by Joss Whedon, who directed The Avengers.[77] Stellan Skarsgård, who played Selvig, said the scene was not included when he first read the screenplay for Thor, and that he was sent pages for the scene after agreeing to appear in The Avengers.[78]

text: Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)[edit]

Recruited for a secret military operation, he is physically transformed into a super-soldier dubbed Captain America and must battle the Red Skull, head of a Nazi weaponry division known as Hydra.[79]

text: In April 2006, Marvel hired David Self to write the script for a Captain America film.[6] Joe Johnston signed on to direct in November 2008,[14] and Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely were hired to rewrite the script.[15] In March 2010, Chris Evans was cast as Captain America and Hugo Weaving was cast as the Red Skull.[80] Production began on June 28, 2010 in the United Kingdom,[81] with locations in London,[82] Caerwent,[83] Manchester and Liverpool.[84] The film premiered on July 19, 2011, at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, California,[85] and was released in North America on July 22, and in international markets starting July 27.[86]

Prior to this, Whedon had not intended the film to include supporting characters from the heroes' individual films, commenting, "You need to separate the characters from their support systems in order to create the isolation you need for a team."[100] Avi Arad said that Sony Pictures and Disney discussed incorporating the OsCorp Tower from The Amazing Spider-Man into the climax of The Avengers,[101] but Feige said that "the deal was never close to happening."[102] The supervillain Thanos appears in a mid-credits scene, portrayed by Damion Poitier.[103]

Black explained, "that's an anxiety response to feeling inferior to The Avengers, but also to being humbled by sights he cannot possibly begin to understand or reconcile with the realities he's used to... There's a line in the movie about 'ever since that big guy with the hammer fell out of the sky, the rules have changed'. That's what we're dealing with here."[128] Bruce Banner appears in a post-credits scene, with Ruffalo reprising the role. About the scene, Ruffalo said "They were about to wrap the movie and I saw Robert [Downey, Jr.] at the Academy Awards... and he said, 'What do you think about coming and doing a day?'

And it's brilliant."[140] James Gunn, the director of Guardians of the Galaxy, directed the mid-credits scene which featured the Collector, played by Benicio del Toro.

So we went forward with that Plan A in October, with the Plan B being, if [the deal] were to happen with Sony, how it would all shift. We've been thinking about [the Spider-Man film] as long as we've been thinking about Phase Three.”[268] In June 2015, Tom Holland was cast in the role of Spider-Man and Jon Watts was hired to direct the film,[211] and the next month, John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein were hired to write the screenplay.[269] Additional screenwriters include Watts & Christopher Ford and Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers.[212] In April 2016, the title was revealed to be Spider-Man: Homecoming.[270] Production began in June 2016 at Pinewood Atlanta,[271][272] and concluded in October 2016.[273] Spider-Man: Homecoming premiered on June 28, 2017 in Hollywood,[274] and was released in the United Kingdom on July 5,[275] and the United States on July 7, 2017.[276]

In addition, the box set included a featurette on the then-upcoming Phase Two films, showing footage and concept art, as well as previously unreleased deleted scenes from all of the Phase One films.[348]

text: In May 2013, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Marvel had a working script for Ms. Marvel.[438] In October 2014, Marvel announced the film would be titled Captain Marvel and feature Carol Danvers.[219] In April 2015, Nicole Perlman & Meg LeFauve were announced as screenwriters.[439] At the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con, Brie Larson was confirmed to play the role of Carol Danvers.[440] In April 2017, Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck were hired to direct.[415] That August, Geneva Robertson-Dworet was revealed to be taking over as the film's screenwriter, replacing Perlman and LeFauve.[416] Filming is expected to begin in March 2018 in California,[441][442] and is scheduled to last until May 2018.[443] The film is scheduled to be released on March 8, 2019.[207]

text: The film is set in the 1990s.[444] Jackson reprises his role as Nick Fury in the film,[315] while the Skrull species are introduced to the MCU.[444]

text: Untitled Avengers film (2019)[edit]

text: The film was announced in October 2014 as Avengers: Infinity War – Part 2.[219] In April 2015, it was revealed that Anthony and Joe Russo would direct the film and in May, that Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely would write the screenplay.[411][412] In July 2016, Marvel revealed the title would be changed, being known simply at that time as the Untitled Avengers film.[428] Brolin reprises his role as Thanos,[429][430] and is part of an ensemble cast featuring many actors who have appeared in other MCU films. Filming began in August 2017 in Atlanta.[445] The film is scheduled to be released on May 3, 2019.[219]

text: Untitled Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel (2019)[edit]

text: In December 2016, Sony Pictures scheduled a sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming for release on July 5, 2019.[417] Filming is scheduled to begin in April or May 2018.[418]

text: The film is set after the untitled Avengers film.[446]

text: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2020)[edit]

text: In April 2016, Kevin Feige stated that "Guardians 3 is [one film that's] up there" being considered for release beyond 2019.[447] In March 2017, Gunn stated that a third Guardians film would happen "for sure",[448] and the following month confirmed he would return to write and direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.[420] Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is scheduled to be released in 2020.[419]

text: The film is set after Avengers: Infinity War and its untitled sequel.[420]

text: Other potential projects[edit]

text: Three untitled films are set for release on May 1, August 7, and November 6, 2020. The August 7 film was previously scheduled for July 10, 2020.[207][449][450] In October 2016, Feige said it was a combination of knowing what films would occupy these dates and allowing some flexibility, saying, "We know what [films] we’d like them to be for 2020. Over the years, where we’re aiming we’ve been lucky enough that it’s usually been the same thing but we always leave ourselves the opportunity to bob and weave and adapt if we have to. But we know where we’re headed for 2020 and we have ideas and we're beginning to solidify the years beyond that."[451] Feige and Marvel have ideas for films through 2021,[452] and additional storylines planned through 2028.[453]

text: In October 2014, in terms of Phase Four films, Feige said, for the time being, "We're not going to talk specifically about the story of any of those films, the plot of any of those films, what happens to any of the characters in any of those films. In fact, even to talk about any of those characters – who will be involved in those movies – will be a bit of a spoiler as to what may or may not happen to them in earlier movies."[104] In April 2016, Feige added, "We're only working on what’s been announced through the end of 2019. And it is still a big chess board for 2020 and beyond".[447] A year later, Feige noted, "We have an idea [of what the MCU looks like post-Infinity War], and it's gonna be very, very different," but cautioned that Marvel would not be "actively discussing anything past untitled Avengers" besides dating the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming and that James Gunn would be working on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. He also was not sure if Marvel would continue to group the films in phases once Phase Three concluded, that "it might be a new thing."[450] A second sequel to Homecoming is also planned.[454]

text: A film based on the Runaways went through a number of iterations. Brian K. Vaughan was originally hired to write a screenplay based on the property in May 2008.[455] In April 2010, Marvel hired Peter Sollett to direct the film,[456] and Drew Pearce was hired to write a script in May.[457] The following October, development on the film was put on hold,[458] with Pearce revealing in September 2013 that the Runaways film had been shelved in favor of The Avengers, with the earliest it could release being Phase Three.[459] In October 2014, after announcing all of Marvel's Phase Three films without Runaways, Feige stated the project was "still an awesome script that exists in our script vault", adding, "We'd love to do something with Runaways some day. In our television and future film discussions, it's always one that we talk about, because we have a solid draft there. But again, we can't make them all."[104] In August 2016, Marvel Television announced Marvel's Runaways from the streaming service Hulu,[460] with the series receiving a full season order in May 2017.[461] It is scheduled to premiere in November 2017.[462]

text: In April 2013, Feige mentioned the Inhumans as a property out of which he was "confident" a film would be made.[463] By August 2014, the studio was ready to move forward in development with the film, with a screenplay written by Joe Robert Cole.[464] In October 2014, the film was announced for Phase Three[219] and scheduled for release July 2019.[300] By October 2015, Cole was no longer involved with the film and any potential drafts that he may have written would not be used.[465] In April 2016, Inhumans was removed from the release schedule,[466] and would no longer be a part of Phase Three.[467] In July 2016, Feige said Inhumans would "certainly" be a part of the discussion regarding the film ideas for 2020 and 2021,[452] adding the following November that he was still optimistic the film could be released in Phase Four.[468] The Inhumans were first introduced to the MCU in 2014 through the second season of the television series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.[469] In November 2016, Marvel Television announced the series Marvel's Inhumans, which premiered on ABC in September 2017, after the first two episodes were screened in IMAX.[470] The series was not intended to be a reworking of the film.[471]

text: In February 2014, Feige stated that after exploring Black Widow's past in Age of Ultron, he would like to see it explored further in a solo film.[472] Marvel has done some development work for the potential film, including a "pretty in depth" treatment by Nicole Perlman,[472][473] and by May 2016, Feige stated that Marvel was "creatively and emotionally" committed to creating the solo film.[474]

text: In April 2006, Marvel hired Andrew W. Marlowe to write a script for Nick Fury.[6] In May 2013, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Marvel had a working script for Blade.[438] In July 2015, Wesley Snipes, who played Blade in three films before the character's rights reverted to Marvel, stated that he had discussions with Marvel to reprise the role.[475]

text: Club captains[edit]

text: Since the clubs formation in 1872, over thirty players have permanently held the position of club captain for Rangers F.C. The first club captain was Tom Vallance, who was captain from 1876 to 1882. The longest-serving captain is John Greig, who was club captain from 1965 until his retirement in 1978. The current club captain is Lee Wallace, who took over after Lee McCulloch was released in 2015.

tag: p

text: Although many players have held the position of captain during matches and in many occasions several matches in a row, when the club captain was injured or suspended, this list only includes players that have been officially appointed as the captain of Rangers Football Club.

text: Hall of fame[edit]

text: The Rangers F.C. Hall of fame is a list established in 2000 by the then Rangers chairman, David Murray, the first of any club in Britain.[35] He decided that the club should remember and honour the achievements and contribution made to Rangers by its finest players throughout its history. A mahogany panel above the famous marble staircase was assigned to display the names of those former players inducted into the Hall of Fame and an annual presentation ceremony was instigated where the players honoured received their award.

text: The following five criteria are considered by the panel when selecting new members include the individuals service to the club including the number of appearances made, the honours and international caps won whilst with the club and the players exceptional ability.

text: The first member elected was Moses McNeil, one of the founders of Rangers.
