10 Best Marvel Characters Not In The MCU (And Who Would Play Them)
5. Wonder Man
If you’re going to work Wonder Man into the MCU you’d need seriously rewrite his backstory since, in the comic books, his brainwaves are what originally programmed The Vision. Real name Simon Williams, Wonder Man is sometimes a hero and sometimes a villain but as Williams he’s also a Hollywood actor.
There have been rumours that Wonder Man might be teased in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 but nothing is yet set in stone. As the MCU as we know it will be drawing to a close Wonder Man’s turn from bad to good could make a great origin story. Maybe in a film that introduces him as a member of the new Avengers? He’s super strong, super quick and bullet proof to boot, making him a force to be reckoned with.
Who could play him? Armie Hammer. There’s no doubt that the square jawed, larger than life action hero could pull of hero, villain and movie star alter ego.
