1. Black Widow

Come on is this even a question? Black Widow is one of the strongest characters in the Avengers and there are zero good reasons why she doesn't already have a standalone film like most of the other men from her franchise. The Marvel studio has been dropping hints and teasing audiences since the very first Avengers movie came out that we would one day live to see Black Widow star in her very own film, but here it is, 2017, and we've got nothing to show for it but disappointed hopes.

But now it seems like we may finally be getting somewhere. Earlier this year, there were some rumblings that there would be a Black Widow solo film that would come out after Avengers: Infinity War, which is slated to be released in 2018. That said, there are have been so many false starts on this project, it's probably prudent not to believe anything until we see, and not to get too pumped up over news that the idea is on the backburner yet again but will probably come out at some point in the future.
