  • New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer Includes a Captain Marvel Tease

    New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer Includes a Captain Marvel Tease

    As expected, Marvel Studios unleashed a brand new trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The incredible trailer, which has been rumored to drop for weeks, fully unleashed the Multiverse upon the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The trailer included a look at a returning Mordo, as well as a Wanda variant, while also seemingly confirming the rumored return of an X-Men actor. However, there’s one key part of the trailer that is sure to get folks buzzing.

    At the 1:35 mark of the trailer, we see a mysterious figure who is difficult to make out.

    While it’s hard to decipher just which character that is, it seems likely that it’s none other than Monica Rambeau’s Captain Marvel. In the comics, Rambeau took up the Captain Marvel mantle before Carol Danvers, and before she ultimately became known as Spectrum.

    Teyonah Parris took over the role of Monica Rambeau in last year’s WandaVision and is next set to appear as the character in The Marvels.

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness hits theaters on May 6.

  • Ultron Sentry Return in ‘Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer

    Ultron Sentry Return in ‘Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer

    The latest trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has finally dropped and it includes quite a lot from what we can expect in the upcoming sequel. The biggest reveal came in the form of a simple voice clip of a voice everyone might recognize, but there was one part of the multiverse that stuck out quite a bit in the trailer in the form of Ultron Sentry making their return. We can clearly see them escort Strange after he was arrested for his crimes against reality. It’s not sure what exactly is going on and where he is, but some of the leaks may help clarify what is going on.

    What is worth pointing out is the silver, slick design of these Ultron bots. It’s very reminiscent of Superior Iron Man’s design. As we don’t know who the other members of this council are beside the one major reveal, there’s a chance that an alternative version of Tony Stark could make an appearance. We’re talking about the multiverse, which opens up a lot of possibilities for Marvel Studios to explore. The trailer finds that perfect balance to give away nothing while making us scratch our heads what exactly is going on.

  • New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer Confirms [SPOILER] Return

    New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Trailer Confirms [SPOILER] Return

    The Super Bowl hasn’t even started yet, but Marvel Studios decided to drop the new trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. It’s probably one of Marvel’s best but what really stands out is we briefly get a moment that Benedict Cumberbatch’s Strange is put before a mysterious council. It’s hinted that he’s on trial for destroying reality as we know it. We don’t clearly see who makes up this council, but we do hear a very familiar voice say the words “We should tell him the truth!”

    While we don’t see his face, the voice is definitely that of Patrick Stewart. Of course, there’s only one role he is potentially taking on and it seems likely to say this is Marvel Studios’ way of teasing the recent rumors that Professor X a.k.a. Charles Xavier will make his return in the upcoming Marvel sequel. It’s a clever way to tease his addition without actually showing him which will definitely quell quite a bit of discussion online.

  • Disney+ to Add ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ This Summer

    Disney+ to Add ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ This Summer

    It seems we may have missed a little detail from yesterday’s Disney Earning all. while most o our focus was primarily on the impressive growth that Disney+ had in the last quarter of 2021. Yet, there was also a brief mention of the fact by Disney CEO that Bob Chapek confirmed the upcoming release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will land on Disney+ in the summer. Of course, the film won’t release until May of this year but it’s great to have a confirmation that it will release on the streaming service in a similar time window that we saw with Eternals or Shang-Chi. The confirmation was shared by @azalben on Twitter.

    Disney has generally focused on shortening the release window between their projects, as they are not only trying to bank on the box office success but also growing their internal streaming service. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will likely be filled to the brim with easter eggs and Disney+ will be the best place to start looking for what one might’ve missed while watching it in theaters.

    Disney+ has become the home for all of Disney’s IPs but during the Earnings Call, Chapek hinted that they want to also include the Spider-Man films, but Sony’s dealings are going to keep them from doing so. We know Spider-Man: No Way Home is heading to Starz first and Sony does have a deal that their projects will eventually land on Disney+, but there’s still no clear time window when we can expect it. So, for now, we’ll have to wait for further confirmation.

  • FIRST LOOK: New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Merch Hints at Classic Comic Design

    FIRST LOOK: New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Merch Hints at Classic Comic Design

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is just a few more months away, as Marvel Studios has been busy getting their merchandise out for the upcoming film. We’ve seen a strong focus on the film’s upcoming supporting cast and the tease of the many Strange variants we’ll see in the film. One of them is even strongly inspired by the Defender run of the character. A new piece of merchandise may have revealed another classic comic costume.

    A new line from the Titan Hero Series Doctor Strange and the Scarlet Witch. What stands out is that Strange’s design includes a very familiar blue design that fans of Greg Pak and Emma Ríos‘ Doctor Strange: Season One might be familiar with:

    For those not familiar, Doctor Strange: Season One was a retelling of the iconic character’s origins. Pak and Ríos gave new life to help new readers catch up on the Sorcerer Supreme’s early beginnings. The cover art featured a blue design that seems to be an inspiration for the upcoming film’s take on the character.

    It’s great to see the films pull in more designs from the comics, and it’s certainly a deep cut to pull from. There’s still a chance that the version in this merchandise isn’t the one we’ve been following since the first Doctor Strange film, as we already know it’ll feature a variety of Variants. So, we’ll see if we get a better look once the next trailer releases.

  • Latest ‘Multiverse of Madness’ Promo Art Focuses on Doctor Strange and His Variants

    Latest ‘Multiverse of Madness’ Promo Art Focuses on Doctor Strange and His Variants

    Quite a few bits of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness merchandise have found their way online featuring mostly a look at the supporting cast of the upcoming May release. Yet, there’s also some promotional material that focuses primarily on not one, but three Variants of Benedict Cumberbatch‘s Doctor Strange. So far, the initial trailer teased two different versions of the character from the multiverse with the Defender version getting quite a bit of promotion even though he was only briefly teased in the initial trailer. The big standout is the inclusion of the evil version of Strange that appeared in the trailer’s ending.

    The designs are great, especially with how all three versions of the character phase in and out of each other. The third design especially highlights the small differences between the character, such as the white stripe in the hair instead of his usual sides. The evil version also has a bigger beard connected to his goatee. It’ll be interesting to see if we might get other versions besides these three in the film. Plus, who knows who else might have a Variant of their own waiting to meet them in the multiverse. Here’s hoping we might get similar designs once they are revealed in the upcoming film. It’s going to be exciting just how mad the multiverse is going to end up once it releases in May.

  • New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Merch Offers New Look at Mordo and Rintrah

    New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Merch Offers New Look at Mordo and Rintrah

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is only a few more months away, and Marvel Studios is still pushing out merchandise to build up to its release. We haven’t gotten a full trailer just yet, as most of your understanding of the film comes from the teaser trailer that got attached to Spider-Man: No Way Home. We’ll get reintroduced to some familiar faces and even some new ones. The big return is with Chiwetel Ejiofor’s Mordo. We’ve previously got a chance to see his updated design, but it looks like he also has reached the rank of Master at some point according to the new piece of merchandise.

    Of course, in a story all about the multiverse, there’s always a chance that he isn’t the Mordo we last saw in the post-credit sequence of Doctor Strange. In the teaser trailer, he did seem like he was on friendly terms with STrange, but we also don’t know what path he went down. There’s also the question of the new character we are getting introduced to in the form of Rintrah. Some new merchandise offers a new look at the character, who might have a big role in the upcoming film.

    We still know very little about the project, but it’ll be interesting how all these characters play into the madness that will be unleashed with the multiverse. Plus, there are also the Variants that we’ve seen of the film’s main protagonist, which opens up the door to any of the newly introduced characters stemming from across the multiverse. We’ll see if the new trailer might offer a better look at what the film has in store for us.

  • Sam Raimi Reveals Status of ‘Doctor Strange’s Production and What It’s Like to Work With Marvel Studios

    Sam Raimi Reveals Status of ‘Doctor Strange’s Production and What It’s Like to Work With Marvel Studios

    The man who helped begin the superhero movie craze is back, and he’s ready to talk about working with the machine keeping his trend alive. In a recent interview with Variety, acclaimed director Sam Raimi discussed the current status of the latest Marvel project and what it was like to develop a film alongside Kevin Feige and the folks at Marvel Studios. The filmmaker has been hard at work on the highly-anticipated sequel Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness for a long time now, and had this to say when asked if filming was yet to be completed:

    I wish I knew the answer to that question. I think we’re done, but we just cut everything. We’re just starting to test the picture and we’ll find out if there’s anything that’s got to be picked up. If something’s unclear or another improvement I can make in this short amount of time left, I’ll do it. One thing I know about the Marvel team is they won’t stop. They’ll keep pushing it until it’s as close to being great as it could be.

    Sam Raimi

    He continued to put an emphasis on just how great his experience with the cultural juggernaut has been:

    Marvel’s been a great team to work with. I think that was a not-surprising surprise. I’ve been super-supported by the whole Marvel operations, starting at the top with Kevin Feige, and working all the way down to the crews that they work with. [They’re] super professional and have supported me every step of the way.

    Sam Raimi

    These comments should be thrilling for fans who were afraid Raimi, noted for his signature style, would be creatively stifled by Marvel. His last outing with a comic book hero, 2007’s Spider-Man 3, was famously affected by studio mandates and interference. Here’s hoping the future is brighter for the fan-favorite maestro.

  • New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Promo Art Offers Full Look at Gargantos

    New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Promo Art Offers Full Look at Gargantos

    There’s been a lot of discussion about who will Doctor Strange face off against in the upcoming film Doctor Stange in the Multiverse of Madness. When merchandise started finding its way online, it gave us our first look at a villain named Gargantos. It confused many of us, as rumors pointed to Shuma-Gorath being the villain, not a Kraken-like monster from an old Namor comic. Well, it turns out that Gargantos is the film’s take on the iconic multiversal villain due to the potential restrictions on the characters naming rights. The first merchandise offered a look at him adding to the fact it’s the same character and a new promo art has found its way online that offers a full look at the character’s design in all its glory.

    Doctor Strange, Marvel, MCU, Gargantos, Multiverse of Madness

    It’s probably the most comic-accurate we’ve ever seen a design in the films, especially with the fleshy eyebrows that stick out above the giant eye. This is the most “cosmic” we’ve seen the character as well, who appeared in the first trailer flinging a bus at Strange. Here’s hoping we do get a massive version of Gargantos, as there are hints that we may meet more than just a singularity throughout the MCU’s multiverse. We cannot wait to find out what the future has in store for us once it releases in May.

  • New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Banner Offers New Look at America Chavez, Wanda, And More

    New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Banner Offers New Look at America Chavez, Wanda, And More

    We sadly still have to wait a bit until Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness releases in theaters, but that isn’t stopping Marvel Studios from preparing their marketing material. They offer a look at what’s to come in the new film. Most of the material we’ve seen so far from the Doctor Strange sequel have been teases of the main cast and what may be their main threat, Shuma-Gorath with the new name Gargantos. It looks like a new banner has found its way online that offers a new look at the film’s cast, such as a new look at Wanda Maximoff, Wong, Doctor Strange, and America Chavez, as shared by @feiticeiraescbr.

    It’s curious we’re seeing so much of America Chavez in the promotion material, but she was barely used in the film’s initial trailer. There’s a good chance she might get a stronger focus once the next one arrives, but their marketing team is certainly focusing a lot on her. While the second image is familiar – especially for comic fans – the first banner offers a clue on her abilities, which was even teased in the initial trailer with Defender Strange floating as a star-shaped energy field was behind him. It’ll be interesting to see if she and even Gargantos might get a stronger focus in the sequel.
