10 Movies You Can't Remember Who The Villain Really Was

10. Dark Phoenix

The final mainline entry into Fox's X-Men continuity was, to be kind, a total mess, and this was never more evident than with its totally flat depiction of Jessica Chastain's shape-shifting alien antagonist.

It's fair to say that 99% of people who watched the film probably couldn't even name her character. Chastain plays Vuk, a member of the D'Bari race, yet both her character's name and her race are only ever mentioned once over the course of the entire movie.

Considering that the film's called Dark Phoenix and focuses on Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) struggle to control her Phoenix Force powers, you'd be forgiven for forgetting that she was egged on by a villain at all.

Jean Grey turning rogue (no pun intended) and threatening to destroy the world would've been plenty villainy for one movie, but for reasons which will likely never become clear, writer-director Simon Kinberg threw in an hilariously underdeveloped extra antagonist who was supposed to be the true villain.

Considering Vuk's total lack of personality and boring motivations, nobody could be blamed for failing to remember she's even a part of the movie.
