marvel cinematic universe - Do Samuel Jackson, Natalie Portman, Idris Elba and Benedict Cumberbatch exist in the MCU?
In Captain America: Winter Soldier, Steve looks at a list of pop culture items to catch up on. Two of the items on the list are Star Trek and Star Wars. Let's say he and Thor would sit down together and binge-watch all the ST and SW movies. They would both be confused and surprised to see Mace Windu who looks and sounds uncannily like Nick Fury. Thor would find it a little disturbing to see Queen Amidala/Padme, and would also be troubled to see Idris Elba's character in Star Trek:Beyond (and would find it most distressing of all to see himself playing George Kirk in Star Trek!). And, depending on when they do this, they would both be shocked to see Doctor Strange as the villain of Star Trek:Into Darkness.
One could suggest that the in-universe explanation is that they live in a more ideal world where the Prequels never happened. Or perhaps the movies exist, but with different actors. What other possibilities are there, and has Marvel or Disney ever addressed this and given an official in-universe explanation?
