27 best Marvel characters that have never appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Has The Hood been in a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie?
The Hood (Parker Robbins) was just a normal and unsuccessful criminal until he found the red hood he wears. With it, he gained unbelievable power. He went from a goon in someone’s criminal empire, to becoming the Kingpin of super-crime. He’s almost defeated the Avengers on multiple occasions and has several triumphant robberies and crime sprees.
The Hood’s first taste of powers came from Dormammu. He’s the one who made it possible via the red hood he wears. This means The Hood could appear in a Doctor Strange project and become the reason Dormammu gets access to the world. We get to see The Hood (who’s surprisingly a good character) and maybe even the fight between Dormammu and Doctor Strange that we’ve wanted to see.
After tasting power, Parker Robbins couldn’t go without it. He’s risked his life for it multiple times. He’s had the Norn Stones (via Loki), Infinity Stones (read Brian Michael Bendis’ Avengers post Siege for that story), and other means that haven’t been explained.
On top of superpowers, Parker Robbins was in charge of his own supervillain crew. After that, his goals and ambitions were permanently changed. He knew that being a lackey wasn’t going to cut it anymore. He will always be a threat. Maybe not on the level of Thor or the Hulk, but he shouldn’t be taken lightly.
