10 Marvel Villains For Phase 4 (And Who Should Play Them)

8. Fin Fang Foom (Alan Rickman)

Fin Fang Foom is a massive talking dragon. Going on to become a recurring enemy for Iron Man and others, he was first created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby back in 1961, as an alien beast who has lived on Earth since ancient times. When he€™s woken up, excrement tends to hit the fan. With supersonic speed, acid breath, and a huge scaly form, Fin Fang Foom is unlike anything we€™ve seen in the MCU to date. And by the time that we reach Phase 4, Marvel Studios could well be looking to invest in villains that aren€™t humanoid-shaped blokes empowered by their weapons and creations. It seems more plausible than ever, then, that Marvel might bring in Fin Fang Foom, as the villain at the heart of their first monster movie. You€™ll need an actor with gravitas to pull off voicing an alien dragon in a superhero film without seeming like a joke, though. Alan Rickman would be up to the challenge, and he even has some relevant experience €“ he voiced a huge caterpillar in Alice In Wonderland. One thing€™s for sure - casting someone with Rickman€™s prestige would definitely be smarter than adding a cartoonish Chinese accent to the character.
