Avengers Endgame brought about the end of the current MCU as we know it with an epic conclusion to its massive storyline; however, the MCU is confirmed to still be continuing with new characters and new storylines as it paves its way into the future of the universe. While we already have several new characters to act as the universe's new Avengers, there are undoubtedly going to be more characters introduced and I have a few ideas about who I want to see next. So here are my top 5 most wanted characters to have introduced into the MCU.

5. Namor
This guy has been hinted at since Iron Man 2 came out. While Aquaman's recent release planted a version of Atlantis into another superhero universe, that isn't a reason for Marvel to shy away from introducing their own. It would be a unique new type of hero for the universe, and further introduce concepts that haven't been touched upon yet with underwater civilizations.

4. Nova
Just like Namor, Nova has been hinted at a few times by both the movies and the writers of the universe. The Nova Corps were introduced in Guardians of the Galaxy; however, Thanos evidently destroyed them according to the opening scene of Infinity War. That doesn't mean that the Nova Corps is completely gone though, or that this character won't appear, as rumors of his eventual solo movie have been swirling for several years now.

3. Squirrel Girl
This is a more silly character who I'm unsure about fitting into the universe anywhere. Her getting her own movie would be great but unlikely, and aside from Spiderman I can't see her fitting into anyone else's movie; and Spiderman already has a universe full of characters to play around with. I want to see this Squirrel themed super heroine make her appearance eventually though, and her recent rise in popularity gives precedent for it.

2. X-Men
This would be a big one and likely change the universe as a whole. Hundreds of people across the world who have superpowers, to the point that is considered a normal thing, would be a massive change to the lore of the MCU. Something that huge may be held off on for a bit more, but I'm ready for when Wolverine, Professor X, and the rest of the X-Men are introduced to our world. The only stint is that we wont get to see them interact with Iron Man and Captain America.

1. Fantastic Four
Just like X-Men, this is a property that Disney regained with the Fox merger and one that fans have been waiting for years to be integrated into the MCU. Marvel can finally do right by a Fantastic Four movie when Fox's efforts have been less than pleasing, and it would be fun watching this group of heroes join up with the Avengers. Mr. Fantastic is known as one of the greatest minds of the Marvel universe, so seeing him alongside Shuri and Banner would be a delight.
