15 Worst MCU Villains (So Far)
7. Ronan The Accuser - Guardians Of The Galaxy And Captain Marvel
This is an ironic case. Guardians of the Galaxy is one of the MCU's most vibrant, energetic and colourful films... yet it contains one of the blandest, most lifeless MCU villains of them all and unless you've seen the film recently, you probably can't remember anything about Ronan.
As villains go, Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace) is about as boring as it gets and in a film that's so full of wonderful and entertaining characters, this is distracting as hell. He's played by a talented actor and, since he's a genocidal conqueror driven by revenge, he is interesting enough on paper, so there was no reason for this character to suck quite this badly.
Unlike many of these characters Ronan got a second chance as he returned in Captain Marvel, which takes place before Guardians of the Galaxy. Unfortunately, he was every bit as dull the second time around; let's just hope he never returns. After all, there are probably at least a hundred better things Lee Pace could be doing than playing such a lifeless CGI blob.
