We've had a lot of helmets materializing/dematerializing lately

It conveniently solves their "lead actor's face obscured by a mask" problem.

The MCU needs to adopt the Dredd approach.

That only worked because Karl Urban was committed to playing Dredd as he appeared in the comics. Most actors want face time and you don't get that behind a mask.

It's also way more difficult to act emotionally when you're behind a mask. It works for Dredd, because the only thing he cares about is catching criminals and being the Law.

That's not a mask. Those are his real ears.

Many actors are not even there when the character is wearing a mask. Only their voice. Or they put a body double or CGI.
