9Shang-Chi
Has been strangely absent since his introduction

Despite joining force with Wong , who has repeatedly demonstrated to be a favorite for cameos in following MCU projects likeShe - whale : Attorney at Law , Shang - Chi himself has yet to re-emerge in the series . It ’s a disgrace Marvel Studios has n’t found more room to meet in one of their undecomposed Modern characters .

The stunt rider Johnny Blaze was transformed into a flaming spirit of payback by the demon Mephisto , becoming a dark saviour of repentance in two stand - alone solo films . The role get a unlike rendition , Robbie Reyes , inAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. , but the Nic Cage version remain the most famous and sought - after incarnation of the supernatural hero .
Once again , the dimension - hopping nature of the multiverse could be a not bad blank space to see the long - awaited restoration of Nicolas Cage ’s Johnny Blaze after long time without a release .

It would be nothing short of show - stop to see Cage ’s flaming motorcycle come screaming into frame after 14 years of theatrical absence .
7Moon Knight
Needs to make the leap from Disney+ to the big screen
Many of the characters introduced in the Disney+ streaming show still have n’t gotten the cinematic CRT screen time they deserve . If Blade or Ghost Rider show up , few would be better than Moon Knight to connect them on a supernatural crusade attack out a cinematic variant of the comic team , the Midnight Sons . As one of the strongest performances of any Disney+ sole case , Oscar Isaac ’s Marc Spector and Steven Grant would be marvelous to see sharing the screen with the MCU ’s well - be intimate heroes .
avowedly , as a primarily street - level part , Moon Knight might feel out of place in the cosmic arena of theSecret Warsstoryline . But from the serial that handle to make Hawkeye and Black Widow find impactful against the existential scourge of Thanos , this should n’t be too bad of an egress . hear Moon Knight ’s chill orchestral root announce his sudden reaching inAvengers : Secret Warswould be sure to manifest goosebumps in patient fans .
6Eric Bana’s Hulk
Could bring back the savage Hulk in a big way
Mark Ruffalo ’s Bruce Banner is a mere shadow of his first appearance inThe Avengersin the current state of MCU canon . Having rectified his two conflicting personalities off - screen to become the lovable Professor Hulk , Banner is n’t much of a compelling character any longer , mainly serving as a funny relief foil to the the like of She - Hulk and Thor .
This leaves the Greco-Roman fury of the vengeful Hulk sadly out of the equivalence for the next major MCU crossover , something that could be sovled by the reappearance of Eric Bana ’s ancient Hulk .
Granted , theawkward legal site regarding Hulk moviesmight’ve forestall such a move in the past tense , Universal ’s mill around right on the fibre preventing a solo Mark Ruffalo Hulk movie in the first piazza . But with more resources to legally manuever around such restriction than ever , as prove by the immersion of Spider - Man and the 10 - Men into the MCU , it ’s unlikely that rights will be an exit any longer . Eric Bana could being The Hulk back to his classic , taunt state forAvengers : Secret Warsalongside a goodish dose of nostalgia .
5The Guardians Of The Galaxy
The updated team could see a final hurrah in Secret Wars
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3stands out in being one of the few MCU films to palpate like a definitive ending . The ending of James Gunn ’s magnificent quad opera trilogy terminate with Star - Lord , Gamora , Drax , Mantis , and Nebula all exit the squad to go their freestanding ways , leave Rocket and Groot in charge of a fresh Guardians credit line - up of newcomers . All in all , it ’s improbably improbable that the classic Guardians of the Galaxy roster will ever be hark back to the MCU .
That being said , there ’s a delightful possibility that Rocket and Groot ’s new team could re - come out to bring together the fray inAvengers : Secret Wars . After all , getting the outspoken talents of Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel to return as Rocket and Groot would be far easier for the studio to deal than justifying a major in - soul appearance from the the likes of of Chris Pratt or Dave Bautista . It would be a shame for the MCU to never employ the new Guardians of the Galaxy team outdoors of the series , andAvengers : Secret Warswould be the thoroughgoing chance .
4Ultron
Might see his grand villainous return
In terms of MCU villain , it ’s surd to ascertain a outstanding case of desolate potency than Ultron . Despite his menacing show and the excellent dulcet tones of James Spader ’s vocalization , Ultron was nonchalantly killed off in the same film he was present in , despite being a major threat in the comics . fortunately , it seems as though the upcomingVision video show will revive Ultron , with Spader confirmed to reprize his role as the character for the first sentence in ten years .
As a sentient information processing system program , there ’s no limit to the number of direction for Ultron to survive and prosper in dissimilar worlds , overcoming death as often as the chronicle needs him to .
After retort in the Vision solo series , it would make sense for Ultron to continue his sovereignty of affright alongside other world - endanger villains like Kang and Doctor Doom inAvengers : Secret Wars . Seeing him interact with other major antagonists would be a great objet d’art of payoff for MCU devotee ' patience . As a sentient computer program , there ’s no limit to the number of ways for Ultron to survive and fly high in different worlds , get over destruction as often as the story needs him to .
3The Eternals
Another missing superhero team in need of a revival
Few Marvel Cinematic Universe characters have been as sweep under the rug as the Eternals , whose negatively - reviewed debut flick was all but wiped out of Marvel Studios canyon . Despite making up a relativley of import look of the MCU Earth ’s creation myth , the Eternals have yet to return in a Marvel project since their premiere in 2021’sEternals , languishing in reconditeness . lately , the picture show has been re - assess with a more open mind by some fans , who have retroactively give the title a small cultus stick with .
Considering the grand cosmic implications ofAvengers : Secret warfare , it might be as good a fourth dimension of any to return to the long - ignored superhero squad . Considering thatCaptain America : Brave New Worldis finally address the massive heavenly corpse left floating in the Indian Ocean as a result ofEternals’ending , it could be the typeface that the parahuman shielder will finally cross way with other major characters . Even if their issue might not be as wide celebrated as other character , if nothing else , the Eternals could pad out the roster ofAvengers : Secret Wars .
2Ulysses Klaue
Is oddly important in the Secret Wars comic
One villain the MCU has introduced and obliterate off perhaps too other is none other than Andy Serkis ' Ulysses Klaue . distinctly modeled after the laughable baddie Klaw , Serkis ' character was a vile delectation to watch inBlack Panther , which saw him sadly die at the hands of Erik Killmonger .

TheMCU has neglect sure villain powers from comics , especially when it comes to Klaue . While the villain set out off as a bare human with a prosthetic enhancement , as his MCU version reflects , the eccentric eventually gains a body made of solid sound that ends up being of critical grandness in theSecret Warscomic plot line . Perhaps the MCU could find a means to re - introduce Serkis ' endlessly entertaining slimy vibranium stealer in a new sound - ground body just in clock time forAvengers : Secret Wars .
1America Chavez
Might be of vital importance to the next major crossover
retaliator : confidential Warsis in something of an inept position in the grand dodging of the MCU , being lead to drum up plug and pick up the pieces in the wake of the failed Multiverse saga . Even if Kang will no longer be the next big badness to terrorize the MCU , the dimension - traveling nature of his being still has made a profound impact on the series , realize as recently in motion-picture show likeDeadpool & Wolverine . With this in mind , few graphic symbol returns will make as much common sense for the crossover movies to come as America Chavez .
A untried girl with mystic multiverse - traveling powers , America Chavez could come to be of vital importance forAvengers : Secret Wars . Her ability to bring others with her across unlike dimensions could be crucial in organizing hoagy from across the MCU ’s multiverse , opening the room access for more cameos from pre - MCU motion-picture show . Last ascertain honing her world power with the occult practitioner of Kamar - Taj , Chavez was left off at a great position to return forAvengers : Secret Wars .
