The MCU is flying high, just recently kicking off Phase 5. With over thirty movies and a dozen more TV shows the MCU has grown exponentially and has introduced tons of characters. Some have been seen fairly regularly while others it has been a minute. In no particular order here are some of the character I hope we get to see again some point down the line and hopefully before Kang destroys the Multiverse. This contains MASSIVE SPOILERS.

Scarlett Witch (Elizabeth Olsen)

I think its safe to say that everyone who has seen Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness does not believe that Scarlet Witch aka Wanda Maximoff is dead. We did not see a body. There are plenty of opportunities for the character to resurface. She could appear in Agatha: Coven of Chaos. She could also appear in Deadpool 3 especially if Deadpool 3 ends up being full of X-Men from the FOX side of things. Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is already along for the ride. Even if Wanda doesn’t appear in those, she will probably resurface by Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. There is also the possibility of Wanda getting her own movie.

Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor- Johnson)

Quicksilver a.k.a. Pietro Maximoff was last seen in Avengers: Age of Ultron where he died. In the MCU characters don’t always stay dead and with a multiverse now wide open there are multiple versions of dead characters from other worlds who could show up. Unlike Wanda, Pietro’s body was seen so he is really dead currently. Many had thought that he would show up in either Avengers: Infinity War or Avengers: Endgame. Neither happened and then people had thought that he would show up in Wandavision which also did not happen. It has been eight years since we last saw Pietro. It is time for Pietro to resurface whether flashbacks or resurrection. Maybe when his sister gets resurrected, if she is even dead, he could be revived as well. He could also show up in Deadpool 3 or he could show up in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. If there is ever a Scarlet Witch movie that would be an opportunity for Quicksilver to show up.

Madisynn (Patty Guggenheim)

I never thought Madisynn would become a fan favorite. I thought she was funny when she appeared in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. I just figured that a lot of people would find her irritating. It seems there is an increasing demand to see Madisynn again. She could show up in Deadpool 3. That would make the most sense given the tone of the Deadpool movies. Madisynn could also pop up in Doctor Strange 3 especially since she developed a bond with Wong (Benedict Wong). I highly doubt she would get her own movie but maybe Madisynn will get a special presentation for Disney Plus.

Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell)

There are rumors that Justin Hammer may resurface in Armor Wars. He could also be in Thunderbolts. There are plenty of opportunities to see him again. The last movie he was in was Iron Man 2 which was thirteen years ago. Justin Hammer’s last appearance was in the Marvel One Shot: All Hail the King where he was seen in prison. That was twelve years ago. Justin Hammer could literally appear in almost any Marvel project given who he is. He could be the employer who hired Sonny Birch (Walton Goggins) in Ant-Man & the Wasp. He could show up in Shang-Chi 2 especially if the Ten Rings are a part of that. Maybe he could team up with Kang (Jonathon Majors) and help provide weapons. Kang could probably use all the help he can get besides all the other Kangs.

Moon Knight (Oscar Isaac)

It has been said that Moon Knight aka Marc Spector and Steven Grant will return at some point. Moon Knight has two personalities and a third one, Jake Lockley that was revealed in the credit scene of the finale. Moon Knight has not been renewed for a season 2, yet. There are no known projects that Moon Knight will appear in. There are some opportunities where he could show up. Moon Knight could appear in Blade. He could get his own movie. The best chance to see him again would be Avengers 5 & 6. The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars are going to be an all hands on deck situation.

Bill Foster (Laurence Fishburne)

Bill Foster was last seen in Ant-Man & the Wasp back in 2018. It has been five years since we last saw him. Unlike Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) who has been confirmed for Thunderbolts, we have no idea when or if Bill Foster will show up again. Originally it sounded like Laurence Fishburne took the role because it would include multiple projects as well as giving him the chance to suit up as Goliath. He could show up in Ant-Man 4 which is probably a ways off. He could show up in Thunderbolts especially if he and Ghost are still in contact. Avengers 5 & 6 are good options as well.

Howard the Duck (Seth Green)

Howard the Duck has cameoed in a few projects mostly the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. He also showed up in a quick scene in Avengers: Endgame during the battle against Thanos (Josh Brolin). His most substantial screentime was an episode of the animated series What If? Howard the Duck has yet to get substantial screen time even for five minutes in a live action project. There is a chance he will show up in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. At this point it has not been confirmed when or if we will see Howard again. He could also show up in Deadpool 3 which seems like a fitting movie for him. He could show up in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars.

Sharon Carter (Emily VanCamp)

There is a lot more to Sharon’s story especially given where things left off in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. It currently has not been announced when Sharon will return. A lot of fans think she will be in Secret Invasion. They are hoping Secret Invasion will reveal that the Sharon we saw on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was really a Skrull and the real Sharon Carter is elsewhere. Even if that is not the case, it is fairly likely that Sharon will be in Captain America: New World Order. She could also pop up in Thunderbolts. Of course, The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars are great options as well.

Man-Thing (Carey Jones)

Man-Thing aka Ted was a breakout character from Werewolf by Night. Like many fans, I want to see Man-Thing again. He actually has an important role in the comics where he guards the Nexus of All Realties. Given we are in the Multiverse Saga, this could play a key role in this story especially with all the Kangs on the loose. If Marvel follows the source material, Man-Thing could show up in Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars. Although I highly doubt it, he could pop up as a surprise in Loki season 2 or even a season 3 if there ends up being a season 3. Another possibility could be Blade or Doctor Strange 3. He could even pop up in Deadpool 3. That would be quite a scene to see Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) and Wolverine meet Man-Thing.

Pug (Josh Segarra)

Pug was introduced in She Hulk: Attorney at Law. He was another lawyer at the firm that She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany) worked at. I am a fan of Josh Segarra and I liked Pug. I would like to see Pug again. It has not been announced if She-Hulk will get a second season. If it does that would be the obvious place for Pug to show up. If not, he could pop up in Daredevil: Born Again given he is a lawyer and there is already established history between Daredevil (Charlie Cox) and She-Hulk. Deadpool 3 is an option given the tone and of course the next two Avengers movies.

The Collector (Benicio Del Toro)

We last saw The Collector in Avengers: Infinity War which was five years ago. He also appeared in What If? The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special revealed that the Collector is alive since he sold Knowhere to the Guardians. Since he is alive, where did he go? Avengers is a good place for him to show up especially if he ends up facing Kang or trying to convince Kang not to kill him. He could be a surprise in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. He could also appear in The Marvels. Other possibilities could be Eternals 2 and Thor 5. Eternals will probably get a sequel and I think Thor will get one more solo movie. It also would be nice to see The Collector and The Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum) on screen together.

The Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum)

The Grandmaster was supposed to be in Thor: Love and Thunder but was cut out of the final film. The Grandmaster was last seen in Thor: Ragnarok which was six years ago. He also did appear in What If? The Grandmaster could appear in the projects that I said for the Collector. It would also be nice to see him on screen with the Collector. I am hoping by mentioning it twice that I could will this into existence. Another option could be to give both of them a Disney Plus show or a special presentation on the Elders of the Universe.

Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner)

Hawkeye aka Clint Barton was last seen in his own show Hawkeye. It has not been stated if he will be seen again. I think there is still some more to do with Hawkeye. Of course, Avengers is a great option for him. Marvel could give him his own solo movie. He could also pop up in Captain America 4 or Thunderbolts. Thunderbolts would be an interesting choice since it was Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfuss) who sent Yelena (Florence Pugh) after him after leading Yelena to believe that Clint killed Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson).

Hulk (Mark Ruffalo)

Like Hawkeye, it has not been stated where we could see Hulk aka Bruce Banner again. There have been rumors of a World War Hulk movie but none of that has been confirmed. Given the Leader (Tim Blake Nelson) is going to be in Captain America 4, there is the chance Bruce could show up in that. If there is a season 2 of She-Hulk, that would be an obvious place for him. Avengers is a likely choice as well. He could also pop up in Shang-Chi 2, Deadpool 3, or Ant-Man 4. Marvel could always throw him in Spider-Man 4 which would keep in line with having an Avenger in each of those films. There is still more to do with Hulk, especially after the reveal in the She-Hulk finale that Hulk has a son.

She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany)

She-Hulk aka Jennifer Walters was last seen in her own show She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It has not been announced when we will see her again. She could pop up in Daredevil: Born Again since she and Daredevil may or may not be a couple. They were together in the season finale but who knows if that lasted. There have been some rumors of her appearing in Captain America 4. Another good option would be Deadpool 3 especially since the Deadpool movies have a similar tone to the She-Hulk show. Both characters break the fourth wall. Avengers makes sense as well.

Nikki Ramos (Ginger Gonzaga)

Nikki Ramos is Jennifer Walter’s best friend and was introduced in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It seems fitting that Nikki would probably appear in projects that She-Hulk is in. Personally I would like to see Nikki in Deadpool 3 even if its just a cameo. Mostly, I would like to see Nikki meet Wolverine. There was a scene in She-Hulk where Nikki held brushes in a way that resembled Wolverine’s claws.

Werewolf by Night (Gael Garcia Bernal)

Werewolf by Night aka Jack Russell was a fan favorite from the Disney Plus special presentation Werewolf by Night. Monsters are now part of the MCU. The best chance to see Jack again would be in Blade. Given their friendship it would make sense if Jack appeared in anything that Man-Thing appears in. Avengers is also a likely option. Also, if Moon Knight gets a second season or a movie, that could be another option since both characters have had dealings with each other in the comics.

Elsa Bloodstone (Laura Donnelly)

Elsa Bloodstone was introduced in Werewolf by Night and was one of three who survived the special. The other two were Werewolf by Night and Man-Thing. The three of them became fan favorites. Elsa is now in charge of the Bloodstone and a good chance to see her again is in Blade. Given Elsa is a monster hunter, she and Blade (Mahershala Ali) could team up together. Like with every other character Avengers is another viable option for Elsa to appear in.

Dr. Erik Selvig (Stellan Skarsgard)

Dr. Selvig appeared briefly in Thor: Love and Thunder. The last time he was seen in a substantial role was in Avengers: Age of Ultron which was eight years ago. It was expected that he would be in Infinity War or Endgame which did not happen. He could show up in The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars. If there is a Thor 5, that would make sense. Dr. Selvig really can show up anywhere.

Red Skull (Ross Marquand)

Red Skull was last seen in Avengers: Endgame. Infinity War revealed what happened to Red Skull after he last appeared in Captain America: The First Avenger. Red Skull was the stone keeper for the Soul Stone. Once Thanos got the stone that technically meant that Red Skull was free. A big question has been where is Red Skull now if there is no soul stone to guard? Red Skull could appear in anything. Captain America: New World Order could work. It would be interesting if Red Skull came back and teamed up with The Leader. He could be in Thunderbolts or Fantastic Four. He could work with Doctor Doom if Doctor Doom is in Fantastic Four. There could be a special presentation on Red Skull and his whereabouts. He could team up with Kang to take down the Avengers.

Steve Rogers (Chris Evans)

Out of the three OG Avengers, Steve Rogers makes the most sense to return given he is the only one not dead. He was last seen in Avengers: Endgame where he was revealed to be Old Man Steve. After going back in time to return the infinity stones to their rightful place in time, Steve chose to stay in the past and live out a life with Peggy Carter (Haley Atwell). Whereas Black Widow and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) died, Steve Rogers retired as Captain American and gave the shield to Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) who officially became the new Captain America at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Steve could show up in Captain America 4 or Thunderbolts. He could also show up in Secret Invasion but I highly doubt it would happen there. The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars are a good bet. They could always do a special presentation or a limited series about Steve Rogers and what happened when he returned the stones. That has been something fans have suggested.
