Captain Marvel has a ton of connections to the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe! Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-Screenrant

Apart from 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger, none of the movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been set in the distant past - until now.

This year's Captain Marvel was set more than two decades ago in the mid-1990s, so it's something of a standalone MCU installment in terms of where it fits in with every other offering in the franchise to date - at least for the time being.

There were, however, several connections and references to the wider MCU in the movie - and, in this video, we'll go through them all for you.

The connections and references (which vary from very obvious ones to rather subtle ones) were; Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury's eye patch, Nick Fury's pager, Clark Gregg's Phil Coulson, Cobie Smulders' Maria Hill, Stan Lee, Level Three, the Tesseract, Project Pegasus, the Quadjet, the Skrulls, Lee Pace's Ronan, the Accusers, the Cosmi-Rod, the Capital ships, Djimon Hounsou's Korath, hyperspace jumps, the Kree architecture, the way in which the Kree saved Carol Danvers' life, parallels to the Inhumans, the Kree's memory manipulation, the Kree's mental communication, the Kree inhibitor, on-screen planetary coordinates and title cards, the Avenger Initiative, the mid-credits scene, and the post-credits scene.
