Directors love to put little easter eggs in their work and this does not exclude the Russo brothers. This director pair are currently know for their work in the Marvel universe with Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019). However, before their Hollywood fame, they were famous for a hilarious little sitcom called Community—in fact, it was their directorial debut. And with that freedom of it being a smaller project that anything in the Marvel universe, they were able to add all kinds of Marvel easter eggs into this random sitcom that had nothing to do with superheroes.


It wasn't just easter eggs that the Russo brothers dropped in their classic comedic sitcom, after getting the Marvel gig they even started giving actors from Community their own cameos in the Marvel universe. Something only fans of both the Marvel films and Community noticed and were stoked about. Somehow these two very different story lines have become intertwined and it's a curveball I never could have imagined.


Do you love both Community and the Marvel films directed by the Russo brothers? Have you spotted any easter eggs?
