5. Klaw Is Born
Age of Ultron made great use of Andy Serkis as Ulysses Klaue, the now-one-armed arms dealer who gained a fortune just before he lost a limb. It seems he's been smuggling vibranium out of Wakanda. In the comics, Klaw is a Black Panther villain and Wakanda is where Black Panther lives. He has powers over sound and a sonic weapon in place of an arm or hand. You could argue that Age of Ultron already includes Klaw's origin story, but giving Serkis the movie's final scene would have whetted our appetites for Black Panther, which right now is one of the less-anticipated Marvel movies. Perhaps he would have used his newfound wealth to invest in advanced sonic-manipulation technologies, preparing to return to Wakanda with great force... Why It May Not Have Happened: No director yet, and no guarantee that Serkis will even be part of Black Panther: the star will also be part of Star Wars and have his directing debut in 2017. The Black Panther character himself is set to debut in Captain America: Civil War.
