The MCU is currently riding a high tide following the hype created byDeadpool & Wolverinepromotions. The next couple of movies are very crucial for the studios, especiallyCaptain America: Brave New World, and after that, the big multiversal team-up inAvengers: Secret Wars.

The MCU movies have all been interconnected in some way, which has contributed to their success. And that is why these two films also need to share some semblance, and Amazon’s hitThe Boysmight have a clue to that.

The Boystakes inspiration from real-world conspiracy theories

The fourth season of Amazon Prime’sThe Boyshas been criticized for becomingmore of a political parodythan a superhero parody. This was also reflected in the show’s ratings when they took a dip before being redeemed later on in the series.

However, political intrigue is an essential part of its storyline, and with politics comes conspiracy theories. Because just like in the real world, politicians inThe Boystoo have their own shady secrets.

With the introduction of Firecracker, the show delved heavily into conspiracy theories. Just like many YouTubers today, Firecracker dropped several “truth bombs” about the Starlighters and Starlight, many of which weren’t even true, to push her own political agenda.

Captain America 4will definitely be dealing with the politics of world government, and can definitely take a few pointers fromThe Boys.

Captain America 4can make use ofMen in Black

The MCU isn’t a stranger to conspiracy theories. The Skrulls themselves were inspired by the urban legend of shapeshifting lizard people living among us. One such theory, proposed by a fan onReddit, might hold the key to aligningCaptain America: Brave New WorldwithAvengers: Secret Wars.

According to the fan theory, Marvel can make use of the myths about Men in Black – mysterious, off-the-grid US government officials who take care of everything that can’t be shown to the public.Captain America 4can introduce the concept, with these enigmatic agents actually being part of the TVA.

The TVA can then factor intoAvengers 6, considering how it is rumored to be multiversal in origin. This can also bring Loki into the circle, as he is also one of the characters reportedly being eyed forSecret Wars.
