10 MCU Characters Who Desperately Need to Return to the Franchise Despite Their Deaths



The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is no stranger to shocking character deaths, often leaving fans devastated as beloved heroes and villains meet their end. However, with the introduction of the multiverse and time travel in recent films, death no longer seems as final as it once was. Here are 10 MCU characters whose return is eagerly anticipated despite their tragic demises.


 1. **Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff)**

Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff sacrificed herself in *Avengers: Endgame* to secure the Soul Stone, a moment that left fans heartbroken. Despite her death, her return, especially with the multiverse in play, could provide deeper insights into her past or even allow her to guide the new generation of heroes.


 2. **Iron Man (Tony Stark)**

Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark defined the MCU, and his heroic sacrifice in *Endgame* to defeat Thanos left a massive void. While Iron Man’s return would be tricky, perhaps a variant from another universe could make a cameo in the future, serving as a mentor figure or appearing in a crucial moment.


 3. **Killmonger (Erik Stevens)**

Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger remains one of the MCU’s most compelling villains. His death in *Black Panther* felt tragically final, but the exploration of alternate realities could bring him back as a hero in another universe, or even in a storyline where he redeems himself.


 4. **Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff)**

Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s Quicksilver died protecting Hawkeye and a child in *Avengers: Age of Ultron*. His return could not only reunite him with his sister, Wanda, but also give him a chance to become a fully fleshed-out hero in future MCU projects.


 5. **Gamora**

While a version of Gamora from 2014 still exists in the MCU, the original Gamora (Zoe Saldana) who was sacrificed in *Infinity War* has yet to return. A potential storyline exploring her resurrection or coexistence with her alternate self could offer fascinating narrative possibilities.


 6. **Vision**

Though Wanda Maximoff’s Vision died at the hands of Thanos in *Infinity War*, his return in *WandaVision* teased the possibility of him coming back in a new form. As White Vision remains at large, a reunion with Wanda and a deeper exploration of his role as a hero would be an exciting development.


 7. **Heimdall**

Idris Elba’s Heimdall, the loyal Asgardian gatekeeper, was one of the first to fall in *Avengers: Infinity War*. Given his vast knowledge of the universe and connection to Thor, Heimdall’s return could offer more depth to the cosmic side of the MCU, especially with the Thor saga continuing.


 8. **The Ancient One**

Tilda Swinton’s portrayal of The Ancient One left a profound mark on the MCU. Her death in *Doctor Strange* didn’t stop her from appearing in *Endgame*, but her wisdom could still be vital for guiding future sorcerers, especially in the evolving multiverse storyline.


 9. **Yondu**

Michael Rooker’s Yondu won fans over with his redemption arc and emotional sacrifice in *Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2*. A multiverse or flashback storyline could allow for Yondu’s return, offering a chance to explore more of his dynamic relationship with Star-Lord.

10. **Loki (Original Timeline)**

While the *Loki* series introduced a variant of the God of Mischief, fans still miss the original timeline’s Loki, who was killed by Thanos in *Infinity War*. Bringing back this Loki would offer closure and perhaps a more heroic turn for the mischievous Asgardian. Conclusion

The MCU is known for its surprises, and with the multiverse expanding, no character’s fate seems set in stone. As fans hold out hope for the return of these iconic characters, their potential reappearances could inject fresh excitement and nostalgia into the ever-growing Marvel universe. Whether through alternate realities, flashbacks, or resurrection, these 10 characters deserve another chance to shine in the MCU.
