13 Things That Would Have Happened After 2016 Movies Ended
7. Michelle Becomes A Resistance Leader - 10 Cloverfield Lane

Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) escapes Howard (John Goodman) and barely survives an alien encounter at the thriller's conclusion, as she decides to head to Houston in order to help fight against the monsters.
While it's entirely possible Michelle would've been run off the road once again and eaten by a monster mere minutes after the movie, the more compelling implication is that her newfound assertiveness causes her to become a pivotal figure in the human resistance against these creatures.
It remains to be seen whether or not Michelle will ever show up in a future Cloververse movie, but positioning her as a potential figurehead in case a straight-up war film is ever made is a damn good idea. It just makes too much sense.
