8. Jubilee

Marvel project: Ironheart

Fans of Jubilation Lee can expect to see her in the proper setting if she makes her MCU debut, unlike what we saw in the 20th Century Fox films that fumbled her character twice. Ironheart would be the perfect setting for her to appear. It’s a series where Jubilee can be a teenager around a younger Riri Williams. And, if you’re a fan of the Ironheart comic, you know what Riri went through. Jubilee could be the one to help her through a traumatic time. Since she can relate to losing loved ones due to violence (see Wolverine No. 74 1993 for more on that).

Chance of seeing Jubilee: 30%

7. Marrow 

Marvel project: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

In the 1990’s, Marrow was a popular character. So much so that she was one of the X-Men that appeared in the Marvel vs. Capcom 2 video game. After that, she sort of fell into the background. It didn’t help that she lost her powers on M-Day. That effectively stopped her momentum.

Marrow is part of a group of mutants called the Morlocks. Because of their appearances, they stay in the sewer. As we’ve seen, the origin of characters change when adapted to live-action depending on the story. Instead of her living in the sewer, she could be from the Quantum Realm if she were to appear in the MCU. It shouldn’t be unheard of that mutants could be in that realm. After making their way to Earth, the Morlocks could go to the sewer like the source material. This would be an amazing way to bring in dozens of mutants.

Chance of seeing Marrow: 15%
