Now, it looks like Marvel may be building toward an MCU adaptation of the groundbreaking story that changed the lives of many of its characters.
But of the 39 characters selected by the Beyonder in Marvel Comics to participate in the conflict, a large chunk of them already have a presence in the MCU. While the Beyonder or a being of a similar level of power could theoretically pull a young Steve Rogers out of the timestream, this scenario is unlikely to ever happen now that Chris Evans has moved on from the MCU.
Instead, his place can be filled by his successor, Sam Wilson Anthony Mackie. Depending on what happens in Captain America 4 , his fellow heroes may find themselves depending on Sam to lead them in a battle of cosmic proportions.
Years before Carol Danvers adopted the Captain Marvel mantle, the title belonged to Monica Rambeau, who was an active member of the Avengers when the Beyonder brought her to Battleworld. That being said, her status could change in The Marvels. After all, the title of the film itself and the focus on her team-up with Ms. Cancel Update. What size image should we insert?

Still it's all gotta come down to the Multiverse, the MCU's new toy which also seems to be at the center of the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home which may draw on another reality-rewriting Marvel story and, naturally, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Along with the connections shared by those movies, both of which feature Doctor Strange if not Spider-Man, in Strange's film sequel , the advent of the Multiversal Kang the Conqueror as the big villain of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania seems to hint at major turmoil in the MCU Multiverse, given his origins as the source of the MCU Multiverse's last massive conflict.
Kang, and whatever Multiversal forces he unleashes, could easily stand in for the Beyonders in an adapted Secret Wars saga that spans numerous realities.
While he wasn't one of the driving factors of the story, Kang was part of the faction of villains in the original Secret Wars and was also one of the few villains included in the original wave of the Secret Wars toyline. And, especially if a Battleworld style scenario of different realities butting up against each other were to come to pass, that could provide Marvel Studios the most sought after storytelling Holy Grail of all - a way to top the every-hero-ever cast of Avengers: Endgame by bringing top MCU stars such as Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans out of their retirement for one last ride, while also opening a door directly to bring in heroes from the X-Men and Fantastic Four,.
Adapting Secret Wars could even be a direct conduit to send Peter Parker to Sony's burgeoning Spider-villain spin-off universe - or bring him back to the MCU for a cameo down the road. Will it happen? Could even Marvel Studios pull something like that off? Well, given that, when it comes to the cinematic universe they've created, Marvel Studios has the omnipotent power of the Beyonders, we wouldn't put it out of their reach.
Secret Wars - both of them - are among the most impactful Marvel Comics events of all time.
