This chart shows how much longer 'Avengers: Endgame' is than other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies

• "Avengers: Endgame," in theaters April 26, is the longest movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, clocking in at 3 hours and 2 minutes.
• "The Incredible Hulk" and "Thor: The Dark World" are tied for shortest.
• Business Insider has organized all of the MCU movies in a chart to compare their runtimes.

Next month's anticipated "Avengers: Endgame" is projected to shatter box-office records, despite a 3-hour runtime.

That runtime makes it the longest movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, of which "Endgame" is the 22nd film in the franchise.

"Endgame" is the culmination of over 10 years of world building, and a follow-up to last year's "Avengers: Infinity War," which ended on a massive cliffhanger — so fans probably won't be phased by the length of the movie.

Based on the chart below, which organizes the MCU movies from shortest to longest runtime, it appears that the more characters, the longer the movie. All of the "Avengers" movies and "Captain America: Civil War" are in the top five longest.
