Marvel Characters Who Deserve Their Own Movies
Marvel Characters Who Deserve Their Own Movies !!
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is the shared superhero franchise of Marvel Studios, and one of the most well-known movie brands in the world. So far, the MCU has featured cameos from more than 50 comic book characters in films like Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming. But that doesn’t mean all those superheroes are equally worthy of film adaptations. As such, we’ve compiled a list of some Marvel characters who deserve their own movies — with more than one movie, even! So read on to find out about these neglected heroes, and why they deserve their own films…
Rogue
After a long and intense tenure in the X-Men comics, Rogue (aka Marie “Poppy” Everheart) is a popular choice as the first female lead of the MCU. Rogue went from being a tool of dark forces to a core example of healing in the comics. As the daughter of Mystique, Rogue was born a human but was injected with the genes of her foster mother. This provided Rogue with the ability to walk through walls, shapeshift and even absorb other people’s powers. In the X-Men: Apocalypse film, Rogue was not a central character and she did not feature heavily at all. Therefore, her inclusion in the MCU would make her a strong choice as the first female lead.
The Punisher
The Punisher is one of the most popular comic book characters in the world. And yet, in the MCU, he’s not even a part of the Marvel Netflix universe! The Punisher is a fan favorite to hold his own standalone flick. He’s a veteran of the USMC and a former soldier who turned to a life of crime after his family was murdered. Armed with a military-grade arsenal, the Punisher punishes criminals with extreme prejudice. The Punisher is also one of the most anti-authority characters in comics, and his anti-heroic personality would make him an instant hit at the box office.
X-Men Characters
The X-Men are one of the most popular superhero franchises in the world, and have been around since 1963. The various X-Men comics have been around for decades, and many of the characters have appeared in comics, cartoons and video games. However, the X-Men are not part of the MCU. If the MCU was to expand into the X-Men universe, there are many characters who would be a hit with audiences.
There are several mutants who would make excellent MCU heroes. If a solo X-Men movie were to happen, it would be a huge win for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Among the characters who could make their way to the big screen are Cyclops (Scott Summers), Jean Grey (Marvel Girl), Storm (Ororo Munroe) and Nightcrawler.
And how about some New Mutants with their very Own blockbuster Movie .A Cannonball & Sunspot movie would just be Brilliant for the MCU.
Other Marvel Characters that could get a Movie include Iceman , Magik , Beast & others.
Fantastic Four Characters
The Fantastic Four is another highly successful superhero franchise. Although the characters were created in the 1950s, they were only adapted for the big screen in 2015. The big-screen Fantastic Four movies were a commercial and critical failure, but that doesn’t mean another Fantastic Four movie is impossible.
The FF has been a staple of Marvel’s comic book history for decades, and almost all of the core characters have appeared in the MCU. With the exception of the Thing, the FF is a perfect fit for the MCU and would give fans a fresh look at the team. The Fantastic Four could also introduce younger fans to the MCU, as their story is set in the early days of superhero fame.
Avengers Infinity War Characters
The largest superhero movie to date, Infinity War, was a surprise hit at the box office. It also featured several major Marvel characters who have never been seen on the big screen, including the Hulk and Black Panther. The Hulk is a popular choice as the first MCU Hulk movie could be a huge success, especially if it features a solo Hulk film. Similarly, Black Panther is the first non-white superhero of significance to appear in the MCU and a Black Panther movie would be a refreshing change of pace. Black Panther could also lead a team of heroes, including the Fantastic Four, X-Men, and the Avengers.
Endgame Characters We Need in Movies
Marvel Cinematic Universe films have been a huge financial success, and the films have been very well received by critics and audiences alike. One of the most popular Marvel characters is Spider-Man, who has starred in five films in the MCU, including his own solo Spider-Man: Homecoming film. However, there are several other Marvel characters who deserve their own films. Among the characters to be explored in their own films are Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Storm and the Inhumans.
What We Can Expect from the MCU Beyond 2020
The 2020s will be an exciting time for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as several major Marvel characters are set to appear in the next two years. Not only does Black Panther get his own standalone movie, but there are also two new Avengers films, one for Infinity War and another for the character Ant-Man. The MCU also gets to explore the just-introduced Captain Marvel. If you need a break from all the superhero films, there are also several upcoming Marvel films that are not part of the MCU, including The Lion King and a 5th Planet movie.
Conclusion
Marvel has never had a problem publishing leading men in comics, but there has always been a dearth of female superheroes in the pages of comics. However, the MCU has changed all that. It has introduced a plethora of strong female characters in its films, while also introducing many new superheroes to the world. With so many untapped superheroes in the comics, it’s no surprise that a few of them have made their way to the big screen already. If the MCU continues to grow, there are also many new heroes that could be introduced. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one of the most successful film franchises in the world and it’s only getting started.
