MCU Phase 4 Avengers: 15 Characters Who Must Appear (And Who Should Play Them)
Who will join Spider-Man and Captain Marvel in Phase 4?
The climax of Infinity War saw Earth's Mightiest Heroes heroes fail to stop Thanos from decimating the universe's population, and with newer characters like Black Panther and Captain Marvel now stepping into the shoes of Iron Man and Captain America - as well as several other characters certain to enter the fray - it seems as though an entirely new generation of heroes is upon us.
The upcoming Avengers: Endgame looks likely to be the point that will launch the MCU into this new, 'distinctly different' era, and with it comes the opportunity for a whole host of characters to finally make the transition from the comics to the big screen.
Some of these heroes and villains have already been rumoured to be up for an MCU inclusion, others are even confirmed to appear, and then there are those every fan would just love to see tearing it up alongside the rest of the Avengers on the big screen.
The House of Ideas has dozens of characters who could fill the void left behind by the departures of Tony Stark and Steve Rogers, but which ones specifically and who, exactly, should play them? We have a few ideas...
15. Black Knight - Moe Dunford
The Black Knight is one of Marvel's many characters to have a somewhat turbulent history.
The character began as the name might suggest, a knight from the medieval era, though with a little bit of twist - his sword, the Ebony Blade, was forged from a meteorite by the wizard Merlin, making him a little closer to a superhero than his fellow sirs. Following this, a second, more villainous version wielded the weapon until it finally ended up in the hands of the criminal's nephew, Dane Whitman, in the modern day.
Since then, Whitman has made frequent appearances on the Avengers' roster, making him a pretty classic member. So, with rumours indicating that the hero will play a part in Endgame, it would be wise to assume the character could go on to player a greater role in Phase 4.
If said rumblings are to be believed, then the character has definitely already been cast. However, in the event that he hasn't, then Vikings' Moe Dunford would be an excellent choice for the role.
