The original Illuminati group included heroes like Stark, Mister Fantastic, Namor, Black Bolt, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, and Professor X – all characters we’ve already seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But what about members who joined the group later? We’re taking a look to see if any of those heroes haven’t appeared in a movie or show yet. We’re excluding one particular lineup from 2015-2016, as it consisted of villains like Enchantress and Hood, who haven’t been introduced to the MCU (though Titania did appear in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law).

As a huge Spider-Man fan, I’ve been thinking about some of his greatest stories that we haven’t seen on the big screen yet. Some of them make sense why they haven’t been adapted, but others are just perfect for a new movie! Honestly, if they could turn “One More Day” into something people really enjoyed, I think any of these stories could be amazing too. So, let’s jump right in and take a look at what I think are Spidey’s best unadapted tales.

Warning: Spoilers below for Zootopia 2

With Project Hail Mary, directors Lord and Miller return to directing after being let go from Solo: A Star Wars Story. While they’ve had success producing the popular Spider-Verse films, this movie marks a chance for them to once again showcase their vision in the science fiction genre. It’s also a bit of a fresh start for Ryan Gosling, who previously starred as an astronaut in the underperforming film First Man.

Sometimes, manga series with low sales are cancelled before they can finish their stories. Recently, concerns arose about the future of Otr of the Flame due to poor sales, and now another series is facing the same problem. This year, WSJ has already cancelled over ten series, and Harukaze Mound could be next. According to recent sales data shared on X (@WSJ_manga) from Oricon, Harukaze Mound’s sales are much lower than successful titles, similar to series that have already been cancelled, like Kaedegami and NICE PRISON. The fact that these series aren’t even being ranked suggests they may be discontinued soon.

Remy LeBeau, also known as Gambit, has always lived on the wrong side of the law. Similar to Wolverine, he’s fiercely protective of his own, but his methods often conflicted with the X-Men’s values. While both are rough characters, Gambit is a true master thief and a more dedicated criminal than Wolverine ever was. His personality and past make him the X-Men’s ultimate rebel, even more so than Wolverine – and it’s easy to see why.

A reliable Destiny 2 leaker, Colony Deaks, recently tweeted that development of Destiny 3 has begun. According to the leak, Bungie started working on the sequel a few weeks ago, and plans to reveal more details soon. While it’s very early in the development process, Bungie seems to be preparing to share updates in the coming weeks.

Radar used to be a key part of multiplayer shooting games. In games like Halo 3, players had to watch both their surroundings and the radar for enemy movements. While it was once common, radar has become less popular in modern shooters. Now, games focus more on sound to show where enemies are, using directional cues and simpler warning signs. However, for years, being able to understand the radar was a vital skill for any competitive player.

The anime My Hero Academia recently revealed a significant part of Shota Aizawa’s history: the villain Kurogiri was created using the body of Aizawa and Present Mic’s old friend, Oboro Shirakumo. The story showed the heroes trying to save Shirakumo from his fate, and a key moment occurred when they used Kurogiri’s powers to reach Deku one last time. However, this part of the story hasn’t been fully shown in the anime yet, but it will be soon.

It’s unlikely Robert Downey Jr. committed to a lengthy new contract. He’s probably starring in the next two Avengers films to give Marvel time to prepare for his departure. When he’s finished, someone new will need to take over the role. Luckily, Marvel has plenty of options, and here are five X-Men who could become the next Iron Man in the MCU’s mutant storyline.
