10 Ways The Marvel Multiverse Could Kill The MCU

Since the Marvel Cinematic Universe was launched in 2008, Marvel Studios has done a great job of delivering quality stories. They're by no means perfect, though, and mistakes have been made here and there over the years (particularly when it comes to villains).

Now, with an entire Multiverse at their disposal, things are going to head one of two ways; it will either be used to breathe new life into this shared world and its characters or, as mentioned, become a convenient way to facilitate crossovers, resurrections, and Earth-hopping adventures where it doesn't matter if an alternate version of a familiar face gets taken out.

The X-Men and Fantastic Four are a perfect example of this. It's not going to be easy for Marvel Studios to suddenly introduce the concept of mutants and a superhero family, but if they choose to pluck them from another reality, that's beyond lazy. Unfortunately, it also feels pretty likely.

Marvel Studios is already reusing actors as different (or possibly the same) version of characters from other franchises, and that could end in disaster.
