Of course, a few Marvel villains hit the big screen before Robert Downey Jr. made his debut as the MCU’s genius billionaire playboy philanthropist. Ian McKellen originated the live-action role of Magneto in 2000, and Galactus debuted in 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, albeit in a much different form than his comic-book version. That’s not to say that the MCU has already jumped the shark when it comes to bad guys, however. There’s still a lot of Marvel Comics villains who haven’t yet appeared in MCU-official movies and TV series. With the recent introduction of the multiverse on the silver screen, Marvel is free to rework previously shown villains in new and exciting ways.
