Watch The Avengers in Order

Watch the The Avengers movies in release order, starting with The Avengers (2012) and continuing through Avengers: Secret Wars (2027). The series spans 6 films, released between 2012 and 2027. Audiences rate the franchise 7.9/10 on average.

What order should you watch The Avengers?

For most viewers, release order is the recommended way to watch The Avengers. This is how the story was crafted and revealed to audiences — earlier films seed details, callbacks, and twists that pay off in later entries. Watching in release order preserves those reveals and matches the pacing the filmmakers intended.

The Avengers largely tracks its own in-universe chronology, so release order and chronological order overlap closely. You can use either without losing much, though release order is still the safest first watch.
