Marvel Confirms Your List of Avengers Doomsday Homework, Featuring 15 Movies and TV Series, And a Couple of Deep Cuts


Ready for your Avengers: Doomsday homework? Marvel has released a watchlist of 15 movies and TV shows you should watch before December 18 rolls around.

Despite saying that Avengers: Doomsday would reset the MCU to ‘Phase Zero’, it turns out that the optimal way to watch Marvel’s next blockbuster will be to have viewed some of the many films and TV series that have come before it. Who would have thought!

Thankfully, though, Marvel does not suggest you need to see all 38 films released to date, nor every Agents of Shield episode. Instead, Disney+ now hosts an official Doomsday preparation watchlist, with 15 projects highlighted by Marvel as your most important things to catch up on.

Included in that rundown are some obvious choices. Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame are in there, of course, as are movies that directly highlight some of the characters and teams who will come together to try and stop Doctor Doom: last year’s excellent Thunderbolts/The New Avengers, as well as the so-so The Fantastic Four: First Steps, as well as Shang-Chi, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Deadpool & Wolverine. Deep cuts such as Fox’s X-Men and X2 are also apparently recommended viewing.

That said, if this was just a list of projects I’d enjoyed, we’d really be here all day — and certain omissions seem understandable, such as no Guardians of the Galaxy films (the team is now disbanded/reformed/sitting this one out entirely), Wandavision (RIP) or Wonder Man (no, I’m still not over its cancellation).

All of the projects on the list are enjoyable, to be honest, perhaps with the sole exception of Captain America: Brave New World. Just watch Endgame — good advice all around, really — then you’re sorted.
