• Since the Quicksilver that’s in WandaVision is the one played by Evan Peters, that implies that his character crossed over somehow from the multiverse. What is arguably the best explanation for Fox’s Quicksilver being in the show is the idea that the characters in the X-Men films exist in a reality that’s separate from the universe occupied by the Avengers, the Guardian of the Galaxy.
• Elena and the Secret of Avalor is an American computer-animated musical fantasy adventure crossover television movie between Sofia the First and Elena of Avalor, taking place before the latter series.

The Man with No Name (Italian: Uomo senza nome) is the antihero character portrayed by Clint Eastwood in Sergio Leone's 'Dollars Trilogy' of Spaghetti Western films: A Fistful of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More (1965), and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966). He is recognizable by his poncho, brown hat, tan cowboy boots, fondness for cigarillos, and the fact that he rarely talks.^[1]

While the character is universally known as 'the Man with No Name', he was called 'Joe' by another character, and listed in the credits as such, in the first film, and given nicknames by other characters in the other two such as 'Blondie.'^[2] Despite this, he never refers to himself with any moniker, and, when asked for a name in the third film, is reluctant to answer as the question is dismissed.

When Clint Eastwood was honored with the American Film Institute's Lifetime Achievement Award in 1996, Jim Carrey gave the introductory speech and said: 'The Man with No Name' had no name, so we could fill in our own.'^[3] In 2008, Empire chose the Man with No Name as the 43rd greatest movie character of all time.^[4]

Concept and creation[edit]

A Fistful of Dollars was directly adapted from Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo (1961). It was the subject of a lawsuit by Yojimbo's producers.^[5]Yojimbo's protagonist, an unconventional rōnin (a samurai with no master) played by Toshiro Mifune, bears a striking resemblance to Eastwood's character: both are quiet, gruff, eccentric strangers with a strong but unorthodox sense of justice and extraordinary proficiency with a particular weapon (in Mifune's case, a katana; in Eastwood's, a revolver).^{[citation needed]}

Like Eastwood's western setting character, Mifune plays a rōnin with no name. When pressed, he gives the pseudonymSanjuro Kuwabatake (meaning '30-year-old mulberry field'), a reference to his age and something he sees through a window. The convention of hiding the character's arms from view is shared as well, with Mifune's character typically wearing his arms inside his kimono, leaving the sleeves empty.^[6] Prior to signing on to Fistful, Eastwood had seen Kurosawa's film and was impressed by the character.^[7] During filming, he did not emulate Mifune's performance beyond what was already in the script. He also insisted on removing some of the dialogue in the original script, making the character more silent and thus adding to his mystery. As the trilogy progressed, the character became even more silent and stoic.^{[citation needed]}

The 'Man with No Name' sobriquet was actually applied after the films were made, and was a marketing device used by distributor United Artists to promote the three films together in the United States film market.^[8]

Actual names or monikers[edit]

• In A Fistful of Dollars, he is called 'Joe' by the undertaker, Piripero, and Eastwood's role is credited as 'Joe'.
• In For a Few Dollars More, he is called 'Manco' (Spanish for 'one-armed'; in fact, in the original Italian-language version he is called 'il Monco', a dialectal expression meaning 'the One-armed one') because he does everything left-handed, except for shooting^{[citation needed]}.
• In The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Tuco calls him 'Blondie' ('il Biondo', meaning 'the Blonde one', in Italian) for his light hair. He is also 'the Good' ('il Buono', as a writings over freeze frames remember) from which the film receives its name. The original screenplay however uses his name from the first film to refer to him.
• In the Dollars book series, he is also known as 'The Hunter', 'The Bounty Killer', 'Mister Sudden Death', 'Nameless', 'No Name' and 'Señor Ninguno' or its literal translation 'Mr. Nobody'.^{[citation needed]}

Literature[edit]

The popularity of the characters brought about a series of spin-off books, dubbed the 'Dollars' series due to the common theme in their titles:

• A Fistful of Dollars, film novelization by Frank Chandler
• For a Few Dollars More, film novelization by Joe Millard
• The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, film novelization by Joe Millard
• A Coffin Full of Dollars by Joe Millard
• A Dollar to Die For by Brian Fox
• The Devil's Dollar Sign by Joe Millard
• The Million-Dollar Bloodhunt by Joe Millard
• Blood For a Dirty Dollar by Joe Millard

A Coffin Full of Dollars provides some background history; when he was young, The Man with No Name was a ranch hand who was continually persecuted by an older hand named Carvell. The trouble eventually led to a shootout between the two with Carvell being outdrawn and killed; however, an examination of Carvell's body revealed a scar which identified him as Monk Carver, a wanted man with a $1,000 bounty. After comparing the received bounty with his $10-a-month ranch pay, the young cowhand chose to change his life and become a bounty hunter.

In July 2007, American comic book company Dynamite Entertainment announced that they were going to begin publishing a comic book featuring the character, titled The Man With No Name. Set after the events of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the comic is written by Christos Gage. Dynamite refers to him as 'Blondie', the nickname Tuco uses for him in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.^[9] The first issue was released in March 2008, entitled, The Man with No Name: The Good, The Bad, and The Uglier.^[10] Luke Lieberman and Matt Wolpert took over the writing for issues #7-11.^[11][12] Initially, Chuck Dixon was scheduled to take over the writing chores with issue #12, but Dynamite ended the series and opted to use Dixon's storyline for a new series titled The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.^[13] The new series is not an adaptation of the movie, despite its title. After releasing eight issues, Dynamite abandoned the series.^{[citation needed]}

• Jotaro Kujo, protagonist of Part 3 of the long-running manga series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, 'Stardust Crusaders', was inspired by The Man with No Name. Author Hirohiko Araki met Eastwood in 2012 as part of the series' 25th anniversary celebration and presented him with an original framed Jotaro Kujo illustration; in return, Eastwood recreated one of the character's signature poses.^[14]
• Boba Fett, an antagonist from George Lucas' Star Wars film series, was based on the Man with No Name, according to Jeremy Bulloch, the actor who portrayed him, from his mannerisms to his green-on-white armor that has the same color scheme as the Man's poncho.^[15]
• Vincent Canby described Fred Williamson's character in the blaxploitation film Boss Nigger as 'an immensely self-assured parody' of the Man with No Name character.^[16]

Near the end of the film, the titular character meets the Spirit (voiced by Timothy Olyphant) who appears to him as what is implied to be an elderly version of either Eastwood or the Man with No Name (although that is not explicitly stated, except for Rango mentioning that that was once the Spirit's appearance's moniker), with the carriage being a golf cart and the guardians being Academy Awards-like statuettes.^[18]
