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

Have the Fantastic Four been in a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie?
The Fantastic Four will be making their way to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. When it’ll happen is still unclear. What this writer knows for certain, is that they’re coming. We’ve seen the giant logo (you can see it in the pic above this section). When it was announced, MCU fans were ecstatic. This was a chance to bring in one of Marvel’s most prestigious superhero teams back home. Especially after the debacle that was the 2015 Fantastic Four. Hopefully, the stench will be washed away once they make their debut.
The blueprint for the Fantastic Four has been in Marvel Comics for decades. Things don’t have to be changed. Sue Storm will always be the heart of the team and its most dangerous member. Reed is the leader, strategist, and inventor. Johnny Storm will always be the jovial hot-headed (pun intended). And Ben Grimm will be the team’s protector and big brother. There isn’t much that needs to be changed. As long as those things remain the same and they’re a family, it’ll work out.
The Fantastic Four bring adventures that we haven’t seen in any comic book movie. Not even the Guardians of the Galaxy can say they’ve seen the things the Fantastic Four have. They’ve been to space, other dimensions, the future, and the past.
After Secret Wars, Reed, Sue, their kids, and the Future Foundation created brand new universes. Not just a couple, dozens. What other mortals can say that? The number of things the Fantastic Four could explore are endless. It’s all up to the imagination of the creative team. This is going to be an adventure fans will never forget.
