** However, similarly to the Hulk, the distribution rights to a solo Namor movie are still owned by Universal. This probably means that while Namor can show up in the MCU in a major capacity, his name can't be featured in the title.

* ScrewedByTheLawyers: The reason why, according to [[WordOfGod Kevin Feige]], Namor [[ExiledFromContinuity wasn't featured in the MCU,]] is due to complications surrounding the character's film rights. This is because the character became heavily associated with the Fantastic Four over the years, meaning his rights could lie with Fox... and also because of Marvel's own push of Namor as a mutant, which ties in to the ''X-Men'' franchise, whose film rights also belonged to Fox. Once Disney acquired Fox, this became a non-issue.
** However, similarly to the Hulk, the distribution rights to a solo Namor movie are still owned by Universal. This probably means that while Namor can show up in the MCU in a major capacity, his name can't be featured in the title.
