Ghost Rider should be part of the MCU.

Is anyone else surprised Maria Hill isn’t on here? I know she’s a minor character but I thought she would have at least 20 minutes collectively.

Level 69

Mar 27, 2019

As of Captain Marvel, there are three new entries: Phil Coulson (who has reached 21 minutes), Hope van Dyne (50:45) and Carol Denvers (66:30).

Level 69

Mar 27, 2019

If you stay on the first 19 movies, then there's a mistake: Hope van Dyne is 15 minutes and not 51 (according to your source)!

Level 60

May 7, 2019

It's as of Ant-Man and the Wasp (the 20th movie) so Hope's screen time is correct

Level 69

If it's up to the 20th movie, then the title instructions are incorrect.

Sorry about that. Could've sworn I added those first names as type ins. Submitted a revision

Thanks! Maybe "Betty" for Betty Ross?

Level 79

Aug 3, 2019

Cool it finally updated.

Couple suggestions: should accept "Happy" for Happy Hogan. and "Ned" for Ned Leeds. Also maybe could use some more time. Even this MCU fanatic could have used an extra 30-60 seconds.

Level 99

Aug 3, 2019

Apologies for that. Thought I'd added those type ins before. Submitted a revision

Level 79

Aug 5, 2019

Should Talos be added? With his appearance in Captain Marvel plus Far from Home he would be just over 20 minutes. Of course, it depends on whether you count the appearance of a shapeshifter as the actual character or the character they're imitating. Either way works, but I figured I should at least mention it. :)

Level 99

Aug 15, 2019

I counted it as a Nick Fury appearance in Far From Home. Figured it made more sense to go with the character everyone thinks they are seeing until the last credits scene.

Was Venom not considered an MCU film?

Level 79

Aug 6, 2019

It was not.

Level 79

Apr 15, 2020

but... retroactively it may be? Sony and Disney seem to be getting more and more comfortable working with each other now, after a brief disagreement that almost ended the partnership, but now it appears as though Holland's Spider-Man will be showing up in future Venom movies, and Keaton's Vulture has a role in the upcoming Morbius movie, so the two universes may become increasingly interconnected moving forward.

Level 79

Jun 13, 2022

... or... Sony will just rely on false advertising to get you to think that this is the case, hoping to get their hands on some of that MCU money.

Level 79

Oct 4, 2021

as predicted... things are getting weirder. The post-credit scene in Venom 2 has officially crossed the character over into the MCU, in some form. I think by this December it's going to be tough figuring out what technically is or is not canonically in the "MCU"- but probably it will end up sort of like the Marvel comics multiverse where there are some stories that take place on "Earth-616" - the main Marvel comics timeline and universe - and many other stories that take place on different Earths, in different timelines or realities of the multiverse.

So anyway, the end of Venom 2 also in a way confirmed that the first Venom movie did NOT take place in the same world as the main MCU timeline, but going forward that might not be the case.

Ummmm, Where's Stan Lee?

Level 99

Jan 15, 2020

His screen time is nowhere near the requisite 20 minutes because each appearance was limited to only a few seconds. Even if his cameos in non-MCU Marvel movies, and even some other random ones like Mallrats and Princess Diaries 2 were counted, he would still come up short.

Level 79

Jul 10, 2020

haha... Princess Diaries 2... funny... though I do wonder if Mallrats is part of the MCU since he was reading the script in Captain Marvel.

Level 79

Feb 20, 2020

Kinda crazy that you could do a cut of all these movies that *never* had no Iron Man on screen and it would be a solid 6 hours long.

Level 77

Mar 22, 2021

noticed that when I tried "the wasp" it was not accepted but "wasp" was. There's really no point in typing "the" but it might be nice if it accepted it with or without.

How on Earth...I saw this on the new and reset quizzes page and thought someone copied. It has the exact same title as one I had made a while ago, and I didn't realize otherwise until I looked at the date of first submission. I must've not checked quiz ideas at the time. Nevertheless, I was just reporting the weird coincidence, and you have did it much better than I did nearly three years later. A nice quiz to pass time with.

Level 97

Accept The Wasp for Hope? I tried it and it didn't work

Level 67

May 18, 2021

Forgot about Howard the Duck, the first MCU movie.

Level 68

May 18, 2021

Was Iron Man always the main Marvel character, or does his outsized role in the movies owe mainly to the fact that the first movie was such a hit and Robert Downey, Jr. is so popular playing him? I remember him when I was young, but I don't recall him being the leader or the signature hero. I always thought that was Captain America.

Level 79

May 18, 2021

The latter. The Avengers don't really have a leader. Cap would be the closest thing to fitting that role. But Iron Man was always more of the face of the organization and franchise. This was due undoubtedly to the facts that the character and RDJ's portrayal of him both became extremely popular, that Iron Man was the first film in the MCU (and Iron Man 2 was the 3rd), and that since Tony was the first and most popular Avenger to show up on screen in the MCU he naturally ended up featuring in a bunch of different movies and wound up with the most total screen time.

Though it is surprising to me even considering all of the above just how much more he got than everyone else. A full 112 minutes more than the 1st-runner-up. Even including the 2 multi-part miniseries that several other characters had on Disney +, which didn't feature Tony at all.

Give it another 10 years and maybe Spider-Man or Thor will catch up.

Level 56

May 21, 2021

Surprised not to see Howard Stark. He had appearances briefly in Iron Man 2, the first Captain America, Endgame, aaaand maybe others? I would have thought it might have added up.

Level 79

May 23, 2021

He also showed up briefly in the original Iron Man (as a photograph), Ant-Man, and Civil War. Keyword, though, is "briefly."

Level 58

Jul 25, 2021

I'm honestly really happy at how high Darcy is. <3 Also, I suppose this quiz should be updated for Loki and Black Widow?

Level 57

Aug 18, 2021

At current time of writing, there have been 24 movies, not 23.

Level 92

Oct 3, 2021

Maybe add updates for Shang-Chi now. But I would say don't do updates for What if unless you want to include Uatu. Shang-Chi, Katy, Wenwu and Xialing will probably all be added but maybe more. Maybe Trevor Slattery or Jiang nan. And of course you would have to up Wong, Hulk and Captain Marvel's times as well. Abomination might be added too. idk tho. Good quiz btw!

Level 79

Dec 17, 2021

Abomination was on-screen in Shang Chi for all of maybe 10 or 15 seconds.

Level 45

Nov 24, 2021

Is Abomination really below 20 minutes? I haven't seen The Incredible Hulk in a while, but I know he is in Shang-Chi for a little bit. That was mostly a cameo, but still. Also is Wong not on the list? He was in Doctor Strange, and the end credit scene of Shang-Chi. Really good quiz!

Level 79

Jan 9, 2022

If anyone's curious, I believe that adding the "What if...?" character times would add four characters: Ultron (32), Okoye (22:30), Red Skull/Stonekeeper (20:30), and Sharon Carter (20). Not saying whether they should be added or not, just thought it would be interesting to look at the times. :)

Level 60

May 9, 2022

Begging for an update, and for just Agatha to be accepted

Level 48

May 25, 2022

Hey! great quiz, I think it's time for an update but it's fantastic! I know you won't but I personally am a firm believer that Coulson has the most screentime in the MCU with 579 minutes. (this is due to Agents of Shield)

Level 62

May 26, 2022

Agents of SHIELD is not a part of the MCU, when will people accept that?

Level 69

Jun 28, 2022

30th February

Level 19

Nov 6, 2022

But Agents of Shield IS part of the MCU! Fury, Coulsdon, they reference the films events.

Level 62

Needs to be updated!!

May 26, 2022

Also, if you're going to accept some first names, please accept all first names... Peggy, Jane, Darcy, Jimmy, Agatha don't work, but Alexei, Karli, Ned, 'B' (for B-15), and Pepper all do... it should be consistent, please

But Scarlet Witch and Jane Foster are different...

Level 72

Jan 5, 2023

Is this intended to only include MCU movies and not TV series? The list in the link includes TV series, and if those are included, Vision has over 100 minutes, as do a number of other characters.

Level 71

Jan 5, 2023

I don't think it counts TV shows. For example, Hawkeye apparently has 95 minutes of screen time from his TV show alone based on the source but only 51 here. I was also surprised that Miss Marvel wasn't here. It's only to only focus on the movies since the TV shows are more complicated and less popular, but I also feel like a caveat explaining that this quiz is only movie-based would be appreciated.

Level 80

Jan 6, 2023

The imdb linked does include the Disney+ shows so I'm not sure why they were excluded unless the quiz maker decided on it, I'm guessing because they would easily top the screen time count otherwise

Level 72

Jan 5, 2023

Good job putting Drax on the list. Most viewers would miss him because he was standing so incredibly still most of the time.

Can someone explain how Black Widow isn't on the list but her sister is? Does her film not count as MCU?

Level 89

Jan 5, 2023

Umm… She is on the list. 176 minutes.

Level 80

Jan 5, 2023

I don't want to say that these numbers are not accurate.

But they seem highly suspect.

I don't see how Sersi, Shang-Chi, and Yelena made the list.

Just off the top of my head War Machine/Rhodes, Happy, MJ, Groot, Nebula, and Vision had much more screen time.

Also, I don't see how Spider-Man is above Captain America and Thor.

Sorry - I gotta give this quiz one star.

+10

Level 99

Jan 6, 2023

Sorry it's hard to base a quiz off of your memory rather than a real list reporting actual screen times. We'll all try harder next time!

Level 79

Jan 7, 2023

Was Vision not able to edge out Sersi or Yelena with his leading role in WandaVision? Or did you decide to take out the Disney + shows when you last updated this?

edit: just checked your source and he was on screen for 80 minutes just in that series, so... either you missed that or decided to not count the shows. I noticed you also cut down the number of answers by about half, and a ton of comments have gone missing, so clearly there was an overhaul. I know the shows were factored in here before.

Level 99

Jan 10, 2023

I had the shows on in my most recent update a few months back but this one I assume was done by quizmaster since I hadn't submitted a new one in a while and never personally changed the time from 20 to 35 minutes. Makes sense though because it had gotten very unwieldy and the list would be entirely overtaken by characters from the shows at this point if they were included.

Level 80

Apr 3, 2023

Or your list is flat out wrong. My memory is the strongest Avenger.

Level 72

Jan 10, 2023

You can check the source, but it does seem that it may not be counting television shows. In that case, it should probably say "movies only."

Level 72

Jan 10, 2023

That list you are using is from 2017, but the bulk of MCU television has come out since then. There is no way Vision (for example) did not make the cut after being the star of his own TV show in 2021.

Level 72

Jan 10, 2023

OK, so I went back and re-looked at that list, and it was updated 5 months ago. However, it seems that this quiz was not, seeing as Hawkeye now has 95 minutes from his show that have not been added to his count.

Level 68

Jan 11, 2023

You might want to change the front-page description of this quiz if its through to multiverse of madness, which is the 28th film. The front page description says the first 23.

Level 71

Apr 29, 2023

Even assuming that this list both excludes the tv shows and was last updated after Multiverse of Madness, Michelle Jones should have 48 minutes of screentime. (The disclaimer also should be changed to reflect that this only includes movie if that's how it is counting now.)

Level 46

Jul 22, 2024

Surprised Thanos and Groot didn’t make it

Level 58

Jan 21, 2025

Thanos is there

Level 62

Dec 18, 2024

Can this be updated? It's been 2 and a half years since Multiverse of Madness, and there's been a hell of a lot of screentime for some of these characters, and especially some that didn't make the list back in 2022

Level 62

Aug 15, 2025

Once again asking for this to be updated!!

Level 64

Jan 19, 2025

This quiz should both be updated, and either specify movies only or include tv shows.

Level 65

Mar 11, 2025

I had to really strain to remember who the hell Sersi was. Which I guess happens if you have like 10 characters added at once.

Level 80

Mar 11, 2025

You might want to put a note that it exlucdes the TV shows. At least a few of them are canonical and part of the MCU, and are on the list that you linked putting characters like Vision, Agatha, Sylvie, Monica Rambeau, Kate Bishop, and Moon Knight on the board as well as bolstering the times of Wanda, Loki, orginal Hawkeye, and more.

I'm sure there might be some way to work around how significant of an impact the TV times have since they run for so much longer, maybe cutting the times in half?

I do see there hasn't been an update for more than 2 years, maybe I can make my own take on this
