Marvel Cinematic Universemicrocontroller) has redefined superhero cinema by offering fans a wide variety of unforgettable characters and compelling stories. And you know, it takes great villains to tell a great story about heroes. Therefore, we decided to rank the 5 best villains ever to appear in the films of Casa Delle Idea, those who, through their actions, managed to strengthen the mission of the hero, and sometimes outshine the protagonists themselves. with his charisma. We deliberately left out the MCU series because comparing what a villain can do in one movie to what he can build in 6 or 7 episodes felt unfair to us.

5) Eric Killmonger, Black Panther (2018)
In the first chapter of the saga of Black Panther the most successful element, of course, is the characteristic murderer, cousin T’Challa and contender for the throne Wakanda. Character played by excellent Michael B. Jordan it turns out to be multifaceted, interesting and the motives that it drives are understandable to the viewer.
Killmonger is actually of royal lineage, but was abandoned by the rulers of Wakanda after the king killed his father. For this reason, we see him become enraged in the presence of T’Challa claim the crown. It’s hard for any person not to empathize with a child orphaned for reasons he can’t understand and forced to live in a seedy neighborhood with almost complete autonomy. In addition, his motives, i.e. to wage war on the outside world and export vibranium, seem more than understandable when you think about the expansion of Wakanda.
The rage that drives him, combined with the remarkable skills he displays as a strategist and later as a king, make him an excellent villain, capable of lifting up a script for a film whose characters all seem extremely flat and one-dimensional.
4) Vulture, Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
When in a movie where the main character is a very young rookie hero, the villain is played by an actor with experience and charisma Michael Keaton it’s too easy to think that the hero is completely hidden. It is no coincidence that the spider supports the film. iron Manperformed by no less charismatic Robert Downey Jr. In fact, Marvel wanted to avoid a situation in which Tom Holland could not resist the absolute legend of cinema and comics.
L’Adrian Toomes Keaton is just amazing. The actor’s tense interpretation, his ferocious and malevolent gaze strikes fear into anyone who does not even wear bulky mechanical wings. His plan to cash in on reselling alien weapons is pretty simple when it comes to villains, especially in the MCU. And yet Keaton does such a great job with each scene that it draws the eyes of the audience. Without a shadow of a doubt, the most beautiful thing in the film, in any case, pleasant.
