A combined setting occupied by most of the movies produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Disney, starting with Iron Man. Unlike in previous Marvel licensed movies, there exists continuity between different movies.
The brainchild of producer Kevin Feige, a former producer of FOX's X-Men Cinematic Universe and a huge comicbooks fan, he came with the idea of internally producing their own movies based on the properties they still owned at the time which included the almost all the Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange, the Eternals and many others.
In 2016, there was a split in Marvel between Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter's faction and Kevin Feige's faction over creative and monetary reasons during the production of Captain America: Civil War, leading to Feige being put under direct leadership of one of Disney's premier producers Alan Horn out of Perlmutter's influence. This also led to a disconnect in the TV productions led by Jeph Loeb and the films as Feige no longer had to connect or acknowledge their existence which eventually led to Continuity Snarls and many other inconsistencies.
In 2019, a major shake up removed Jeph Loeb as the main producer of the TV show with Kevin Feige being put in charge of new TV shows made directly for the Disney + streaming service. These shows are direct Spin Offs of the movies mostly set after the events of Avengers: Endgame.

Following the release of the Disney+ original programming starting in Phase Four, these earlier efforts were largely ignored by the powers that be. Though they were never outright Exiled From Continuity or rendered Canon Discontinuity, these earlier shows were initially found under the "Marvel Legacy" section of Disney+, the grouping for non-MCU Marvel media. On the flipside though, some of the actors from the Netflix shows have reprised their roles in Phase 4 media and onward, such as Charlie Cox returning as Daredevil in Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, suggesting that the shows may have occurred in a Broad Strokes manner
