10 Villains Who Need To Appear In MCU Phase 4

For so many moviegoers, Iron Man 3 was the quintessential perfect superhero movie. That is, of course, until it pulled the rug out from under its audience by revealing that The Mandarin wasn't in fact The Mandarin.

Up until that point, Ben Kingsley had delivered a chilling villain who looked like a lethal threat that Tony Stark legitimately couldn't stop. Instead, Kingsley was just some dodgy actor called Trevor.

*Sigh*

Still, Marvel Studios has the chance to redeem themselves by doing The Mandarin justice in Phase 4 of the MCU. And that will hopefully be the case when Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings arrives in February 2021.

Already, we know that Infernal Affairs' Tony Leung will be playing The Mandarin in that movie, and the MCU has the potential to create one of this shared realm's greatest villains to date.

Basically, Marvel Studios just needs to copy the template that they had for "Trevor" but without the "Trevor" part - replacing that element of the character with some badass combat skills and a splash of the mystical and magical.
