* ''Film/TheMatrix'': The original film's BigBad is Agent Smith and his fellow agents within the Matrix. The film presents only a hazy understanding of there being a society of machines in the real world that are the masters of the Agents and the direct threat to humanity. Other than their attack dogs, the squids, they aren't seen in the film. The sequels flesh out machine society and make it more of a focus in the story.

** The Mandarin in the ''Film/IronMan'' films. He is the leader of the Ten Rings, the terrorist organization who held Tony Stark hostage in ''Film/IronMan1'', and he personally appears as the BigBad in ''Film/IronMan3''. In actuality, ''3'''s Mandarin is just an actor named Trevor Slattery who was drugged and hired by the real BigBad of the movie, Aldrich Killian, as a cover for his failed Extremis experiments. Killian stole the mantle of the Mandarin for himself, and he refers to himself as such near the end of the film. ''Film/AllHailTheKing'' reveals the existence of the ''true'' Mandarin, on whom Trevor's (and Killian's) portrayal was loosely based. Said true Mandarin finally appears on screen in ''Film/ShangChiAndTheLegendOfTheTenRings'', as portrayed by Creator/TonyLeungChiuWai.
