MCU Phase 4: 10 Movies Marvel Should Include

5. Champions

Marvel Comics

Marvel's recent Champions comic may have had its issues, but there's no denying the team possessed a winning combination.

Featuring Miles Morales' Spider-Man (soon to make an appearance in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and an MCU resident himself), Kamala Khan as Ms. Marvel, Nova and Amadeus Cho's Hulk, the team were pretty much Marvel's new and improved answer to the Teen Titans, engaging in all sorts of different battles with a focus on growing up and fighting injustice across the cosmos.

We already know that Ms. Marvel will appear in the MCU further down the line, whether that be in a sequel to Captain Marvel or in a fifth Avengers film, and with Miles Morales already confirmed as well, that's two of the team's most pivotal members likely to meet each other on the big screen at some point.

As is the case with the Fantastic Four though, there is reason to suspect Marvel may delay the arrival of these characters. The sooner they're involved the better though, and with Miles and Kamala being Marvel's breakout stars this decade, it's surely a matter of when, not if, they'll be leading the line themselves.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
