The MCU has created some of the most iconic characters and given the popularity that they've never had before. Whether they're the heroes we all strive to be like, the ing characters that give us all the laughs and relatability, and the villains that strike fear and cause the friction between our heroes.
Every villain brings something to the table, from their complex and elaborate plans to their tragic backstory, everyone has a favorite MCU villain or at least one they would be able to relate to. Using the Zodiac signs, let's match each MCU villain to their sign.
Gemini - Loki
Arguably one of the best villains in the MCU, Loki has always done things the way he wanted. From trying to take the infinity stones and working with Thanos, to working alongside his brother for the greater good, he's usually a hard guy to read.
As the God of Mischief, he's always up to no good, using tricks and illusions to get his way and easily adapting to his situation. As a Gemini, self-reliance, unpredictability, and resourcefulness are all a big part of his character.
Libra- Thanos
He may have been one of the worst villains in cinematic history, wiping out half the universe and singlehandedly being responsible for killing trillions of lives. He did it all to help the world in his own way and was willing to sacrifice everything for that "perfect balance".
Libras are almost poetic speakers and free thinkers, looking for the balance in life and stopping at nothing to get to it.
Aries - Ultron
Ultron didn't waste any time terrorizing the Avengers, quickly dismantling the team and carrying out his plan for world domination. He was a careful planner and a determined one at that, wasting no time to build his army and terrorize the world.
Aries are known for being determined and motivated individuals, diving in headfirst and not relenting until they got to their goal.
Cancer - Kaecilius
He betrayed his sorcerer brothers for the evil demi-God and managed to kill the Great One, prompting Stephen Strange to be the next Sorcerer Supreme.
He's a true Cancer, loyal to Dormammu and emotional and persuasive. He may have been taken out easy but he is still a notable villain.
Virgo - Vulture
As the first villain in the MCU Spider-man's career, the Vulture wouldn't seem like a villain to outsiders. He looks like a normal, blue-collar worker and caring father who only wants what's best for his family. Although he does care for his family, he chooses a life of crime and turns his bad luck upside down by perfecting the alien weapons.
Virgos are well known for their hardworking and practical approach to life, and their failure to see their mistakes. He's also very stoic and even when he falls to Spidey, he still remains confident.
Capricorn - Red Skull
Red Skull was one of the first villains in the MCU, playing a big role in Captain America's development as a hero. He was a Nazi, sharing all their beliefs and also one of the first of the deadly organization Hydra.
He lost himself in his quest for power and was punished for a lifetime protecting the stone he once tried to claim as his own, representing his duty for time and responsibility, two Capricorn traits.
Aquarius - Hela
Hela came out of nowhere and took on Thor and Loki, and destroying half of Asgard in her wake. She was trapped for thousands of years and took all the time to exact her revenge on her father and she nearly succeeded.
Aquariuses are known for being independent and temperamental, with their personalities constantly switching between quiet and reserved and confident and eccentric.
Taurus - Kilmonger
Michael B Jordan played this complex and ruthless villain to perfection in his first and only MCU appearance. Killmonger spent years plotting his revenge and planned everything, only being satisfied when he successfully got his "rightful" seat on the throne. His endgame may not have been as evil but his methods of getting to the top were cruel and violent.
Taureans are known for their patience and stability, their uncanny ability for seeing a plan through to fruition. They are stubborn and focused, only happy when they reach their goals.
Scorpio - Ghost
Ghost is a misunderstood and complex villain, making her appearance in Ant-man's second solo film. She started off resenting Hank Pym for his role in her family's disappearance and looked to get revenge before being defeated by Hope and Scott Lang.
Scorpios are well known for acting on their emotions rather than logic, often lashing out or impulsive outburst. They are very confrontational and will go after anyone who threatens their family.
Pisces - Darren Cross/Yellow Jacket
He was a close friend to Hank Pym before he betrayed him to get more power and recognition. He had the looks of a loyal and ing friend but his ego got in the way and he became a supervillain hell-bent on taking the Pym particles as his own.
He's a true Pisces, being overly trusting in himself and refusing to look at his mistakes.
