welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten MCU characters who will never get
their own movie before we begin we
publish new videos every day so be sure
to subscribe for more great content for
this list we’ll be looking at characters
from the Marvel Cinematic Universe who
are unlikely to ever receive a movie of
their own we’ll go over the reasons why
they probably won’t even if we’d like
them to also we won’t be including any
characters who’ve already gotten their
movie but that are unlikely to get
another one
number 10 Scarlet Witch staying here
you’re good I’ll send your brother come
find you but if you step out that door
you are an Avenger Wanda Maximoff aka
Scarlet Witch was initially introduced
as an antagonist in the second Avengers
film before becoming an Avenger herself
maximov has powerful telekinetic
abilities that allow her to move objects
with her mind as well as influence other
people’s minds to make them see or do
things however despite her cool powers
and interesting character moments
Maximoff is unlikely to see a movie of
her own as she’s not popular or
recognizable enough to justify a
standalone adventure also Marvel has yet
to release a film starring a female hero
I can’t control their fear number nine
Falcon veteran of the US air force
involved in pararescue Sam Wilson aka
Falcon became an ally of Captain America
in his second movie and showed his
aptitude with a wings jetpack he also
supported cap during the Avengers Civil
War
Wilson is principled loyal and has a
great sense of humor and some awesome
equipment to boot even so Wilson has
been so supportive of caps goals that we
don’t know much about his own although
he’s a great wingman we’re not sure he’s
ready to fly solo wings coming out of
you I would explain the rigidity
flexibility ratio which gotta say that’s
awesome I don’t know if you’ve been in a
fight before but there’s usually not
this much talk alright sorry my bad
number eight
I’ll have that drink now
charm will only get you so far loki is a
charismatic and compelling character
beloved by many fans of the MCU
unfortunately there’s this one teensy
little issue standing between him and a
starring role he’s a villain
Thor’s adopted brother and a master of
illusions and scheming loki has been a
major antagonist in several of the MCU
films and is a mass murderer
. while tom hiddleston plays him
brilliantly and loki does have redeeming
qualities having teamed up with his
brother against greater threats he’s
still a very bad guy and Marvel is yet
to take a chance on a protagonist this
morally bankrupt number 7 Winter Soldier
speaking of darker characters the Winter
Soldier is another character whose
villainous deeds are a definite black
mark against him originally beginning
his life as Bucky Barnes Captain
America’s best friend
he was eventually captured by Hydra and
brainwashed into becoming their best
assassin although we’d love to see a
solo movie centred on him maybe
something in the vein of Jason Bourne
with a robot arm it would be a definite
departure from Marvel’s typical formula
which has worked so well for them that
they’ve yet to deviate from it
significantly so far I can’t trust my
own mind so until they figure out how to
get this stuff out of my head I think
going back under is the best thing
everybody number 6 Rocket Raccoon
subject 89p13 self rocket the result of
illegal genetic and cybernetic
experiments on a lower life-form a movie
about a rude sarcastic violent talking
raccoon sign us up
rocket is a member of the guardians of
the galaxy and the team’s pilot resident
mechanical Wiz and is generally an
asshole while Rockets still more likely
to get a movie than Groot since his
vocabulary consists of more than three
words it would nevertheless be a tough
sell guardians of the galaxy is an
obscure property already and while it
proved an unexpected hit a movie focused
on just one of an obscure group of
superheroes may be an even bigger risk
we’d love to see an origin story for him
like number five vision you think I’m a
child of Ultron you’re not I’m not all
true
I’m not Java Simon I am an artificial
life-form originally meant to house
Ultron’s mind vision was given life by
Tony Stark and Thor and a mind by Starks
AI Jarvis and one of the Infinity stones
vision then aided the Avengers against
Ultron and became an Avenger although
he’s a fascinating character we’d love
to see more from as well as one of the
strongest ones in the MCU visions
backstory is a bit convoluted to explain
again in a solo movie and given his
importance to the overarching story of
the MCU
it’s improbable that ol vis will receive
a story of his own it’s a privilege to
be alone well I was born yesterday
number four war machine oh Rudy you
never stood a chance
Colonel James Rhodes is a member of the
US Air Force and one of Tony Stark’s
staunchest allies and Friends Rhodey
also Don’s an Iron Man style suit and
works as war machine usually fighting
alongside Tony and/or for the military
similar to Falcon war machine is a great
support character but doesn’t have the
same star power as the hero he’s
supporting although in this case it’s
even more pronounced since he has all
the same abilities as Iron Man but
without Tony Stark’s genius and charisma
we’re sure war machines stories are
number three Nick Fury who the hell are
you Nick Fury director of shield
I’m here to talk to you about the
Avenger initiative the eyepatch sporting
former director of shield and the man
responsible for bringing the Avengers
together Nick Fury has been a
tremendously influential and important
part of the MCU a film focused on him
would definitely be welcome
since he’s one badass son of a bitch
unfortunately Fury has been largely
missing from the MCU for the last
several years likely due to his actor
Samuel Jackson’s busy schedule in many
ways he’s already passed the torch on to
others so Fury’s time in the spotlight
may be over although it was nice while
it lasted trouble miss Romanoff no
matter who wins or loses trouble still
comes round number two Hawkeye okay
she’s flying we’re fighting an army of
robots and I have a bow and arrow none
of this makes sense a former agent of
shield and of the Avengers as well as an
expert marksman with a bow Clint Barton
aka Hawkeye had an uphill battle gaining
fan support given his lack of time in
the spotlight and his odd choice of
weaponry which drew derision from some
even so while he is genuinely liked by
most fans Barton is not the biggest
crowd-pleaser when it comes to the
Avengers like several of her prior
entries
he’s a supporting player but we doubt
Hawkeye would hit his mark on a target
as elusive as a movie of his own we’re
afraid the general public might react
like Black Panther number one Black
you all saw this coming
natasha romanoff better known as Black
Widow is one of the MC used most
prominent female heroes while she was an
assassin and has plenty of red in her
ledger she’s more recognizable and
heroic than the other darker characters
she has an intriguing past right for an
origin story and she just planed kicks
ass however plans for a black widow
movie have been kicked around for years
with nothing materializing except vague
promises for the future and given how
Marvel plans everything out in advance
that’s hardly reassuring Marvel has been
doing great work but its lack of a
female lead movie has been disappointing
