It has officially been crowned the worst opening box office for a Marvel Cinematic Universe film since the franchise began with the first “Iron Man” in 2010 and has led to more discussion about “franchise fatigue” and the rise of “post-franchise cinema.” But as “The Marvels” arrives on Disney+ today, so does “Assembled: The Making of The Marvels.”

"Assembled" is an extensive documentary series delving into the behind-the-scenes aspects of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), offering an insider's view of the shows and movies. It follows the journeys of filmmakers, cast, crew, and Marvel heroes, providing an in-depth exploration of their creative processes.

Each episode takes viewers backstage, showcasing the collaborative efforts of the cast and creative team responsible for bringing these cinematic marvels to life through a blend of immersive footage and candid interviews, Disney has previously unveiled episodes of "Assembled" covering all the films and shows within the fourth and fifth phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, coinciding with the launch of Disney+.

Disney+’s synopsis of this episode of “Assembled” reads: “In this special, we take an intergalactic trip with the cast and crew of The Marvels as they tell their experiences making this weird and wonderful film. Step into all the departments of production and discover how they created complex fight scenes, countless alien life forms, and some of the most elaborate sets ever.  From dance parties to kitten days, the cast and crew had an unforgettable time making the movie.”

So unfortunately, we don’t think there will be much discussion about how it tanked at the box office and led to a domino effect leaving Disney to scramble how to salvage what was once a financial juggernaut for the “House of Mouse.”
