11 Marvel Characters We Can't Wait To See In The MCU

3. Miles Morales

Ironheart Riri Williams
Marvel Comics

Miles Morales has proven to be one of the greatest and most popular characters in recent Marvel history. His comic story sees him become Spider-Man and learn to use his powers in a world where Peter Parker has died.

Miles has appeared in the popular PS4 Spider-Man game, and then went on to have his solo game because of his popularity. Miles was the lead character in Into the Spider-Verse, arguably the best Spider-Man film of all time. His inclusion in these games and this film gave Miles exposure to wider audiences who fell in love with him. And I mean, who wouldn't?

While his appearance in the MCU hasn't been confirmed, we have seen a link to him in the past. In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter Parker comes across Miles' uncle Aaron, who moonlights as the super-thief known as the Prowler. In a deleted scene featuring Donald Glover as the character, he even calls his nephew and names him Miles, confirming that he does exist in this universe.

Aaron's appearance is huge because his part as Prowler makes him a key player in Miles discovering his own identity.

Here's hoping fans aren't waiting too long on Miles making his big screen debut.
