MARVEL MOVIEVERSE PHASE 3

While the first and second phases mainly focused on the heroes and goodie goods, "Phase 3" will center around the villains, bad guys, and those who walk the fine line of good and bad. And those characters are...


Abomination/Emil Blonsky
(Tim Roth)
Roth did well giving us a badass bad guy to go toe-to-toe with Hulk. Like everything else, whether or not we will see more of him is the question.

Obadiah Stane
(Jeff Bridges)
With a less is more approach, Bridges gave us a pretty solid intial villain for Iron Man.

Ivan Vanko
(Mickey Rourke)
A combination of two comic book villains (Whiplpash and Crimson Dynamo), Rourke gave us a darker, grittier villain for Iron Man to battle.

Justin Hammer
(Sam Rockwell)
Although more of a "the money behind the villain" villain, Sam Rockwell was able to give us all a bad case of Hammer-oids.

Trevor Slattery/"fake" Mandarin
(Sir Ben Kingsley)
If Trevor Slattery was just a fall guy of sorts for the real Mandarin, it makes you wonder just who will be the real deal, if Sir Kingsley played the puppet.

Loki
(Tom Hiddleston)
RDJ is the crowning jewel, but that is of the cast of heroes. Hiddleston is in some opinions, the crowning jewel of the franchise. With Tom making bad guy Loki into a fan favorite, it is hard to argue.

Laufey
(Colm Feore)
Ruler of the Frost Giants, and biological father of Loki. Who subsequently killed him. Talk about daddy issues.

Malekith
(Christopher Eccleston)
He wasn't in good shape when we last saw him, but Malekith The Accursed could rreturn one day to be a thorn in Thor's side.

Algrim/Kurse
(Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje)
We likely won't be seeing Algrim again, unless one can survive being sucked into a black hole. Regardless, he looked pretty bad ass blocking Mjolnir.

Red Skull/Johann Schmidt
(Hugo Weaving)
Although Red Skull is a Nazi by origin, he went his own way of villainy, and Hugo Weaving had us saying; "Hail Hydra!". Hopefully we will see more of him in future films.

Dr. Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker
(Thomas Kretschmann)
We will be seeing more the "mad" doctor, who is also one of the leaders of H.Y.D.R.A., in future films in this movieverse.

Ronan The Accuser
(Lee Pace)
He may have lost the "dance off" with Star-Lord, thus ending his life, but Ronan The Accuser looked pretty awesome up until that point.

Yondu Udonta
(Michael Rooker)
Yondu is in that grey area of not a good guy, but not a bad guy either. Luckily, that is pretty much Michael Rooker's wheelhouse.

Nebula
(Karen Gillian)
Hopefully haven't seen the last of Nebula. With her unique daddy issues (hates him, yet strives to earn his respect), could we see her when daddy Thanos makes his full appearance, hopefully if not sooner.

Korath
(Djimon Hounsou)
Thanks to Drax The Destroyer, we have likely seen the last of Korath. Unless cinema takes from comic books, and deaths are not final.

The Collector/Taneleer Tivan
(Benicio del Toro)
So far his small appearances have us intrigued, with both del Toro's performance, and what The Collector has been collecting. Those Infinity Stones will look amazing on a nice gauntlet.

Ultron
(James Spader)
We will soon see how James Spader fared as the villainous Ultron in under a month. Previews thus far say that he did very well.

Thanos
(Josh Brolin)
Only a small cameo, and we are all waiting for Thanos to enter the picture. Brolin has been in a resurgence of sorts, so the performance should be good. The Infinity Gauntlet also adds to the anticipation.

Might have missed some, but purposely left out some of the "bit" part characters like Kat Denning's "Thor" character Darcy Lewis and some members of S.H.I.E.L.D. as they might add to the films in their own way, play a more minimal of roles within them. And of course there is also those on televisions "Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D." as despite the connection to the movieverse, they are a list all their own. And we didn't forget Lou Ferrigno, who has made small appearances, but also voiced Hulk in "The Incredible Hulk" and was mixed with Ruffalo's voice for "The Avengers".
