We talk about the crazy expectations for the craziest movie. What else could they show besides Professor X, Tom Cruise, and the Fantastic Four?
Apparently, we still have a little while to wait before the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. So it's time to revisit the latest series and movies, and read fan predictions about the adventures of the sorcerer Strange. After all, the film could be a major breakthrough in this phase of the Marvel universe.
What else could they show besides Professor X, Tom Cruise, and the Fantastic Four? We've gathered both the most obvious and the craziest theories.
What is the mysterious 'House of M'?
This particular comic series could serve as the main source for all the events of the upcoming film. This was discussed as early as the first cast announcements, and then after the release of the series ''. Wanda and Doctor Strange will be restoring order in the multiverse. But the Scarlet Witch, who finds it unfair that her sons were taken from her, may get in their way. Perhaps she will create a new reality where the main Marvel canon is shaken.
Ready for the finale of WandaVision — the first cool series directly connected to the plot of the cinematic universe? We've gathered the main questions that remain unanswered. And we discuss wh
Open materialYoung Avengers – Assemble?
The trailers have already confirmed the presence of a character like America Chavez, whose mentor could be Strange. So it's possible that in the post-credit scenes we'll see Kate Bishop and Cassie Lang, already familiar to viewers. Or maybe they'll go all out and introduce Wanda's sons, Speed and Wiccan, into the team. By the way, Loki could also join the team.
Will We See Loki?
Let's imagine that Strange breaks the universe. Then who would be closest to him? That's right, , who broke or witnessed the universe splitting into hundreds of variants. The timeline is shattered, Lokis are free, and one of them could drop by in this film.
How the finales of WandaVision and Loki prepared us for the multiverse in Marvel and what will be shown in future films.
Open materialWho Is Behind It All?
The one responsible for the chaos in the universe, or the one who predicted it, is thought to be Kang the Conqueror. But not the charming version from Loki, but the most sinister one. Kang could become the character who, like Thanos, would be gradually introduced into the universe in this phase. Or maybe Mephisto?
New Assembly?
But not the Avengers this time. Without a rapid response group, Earth will have a hard time. Perhaps 'Multiverse of Madness' will force Fury to assemble a team again. In 'Eternals', we were already hinted at Black Knight and Blade. Don't forget about Moon Knight and the yet-to-be-introduced Ghost Rider. That would be quite a lineup, and most importantly – deadly.
X-Men Cameo?
We've been waiting for this for a long time. The long-awaited reunion of these universes has to happen sometime. At least in the post-credit scenes. Or at least show us a couple of mutants? Besides, there were rumors that Sophie Turner was on set.
Will Wanda Reunite Her Family?
One of the most heartbreaking moments in the universe is the scene where Wanda says goodbye to her sons. That's when she lost everyone she loved again. But don't the heroes deserve a happy ending? Fans believe she has suffered enough, so her 'dark arc' as the Scarlet Witch will end in this film, and Wanda will see her children and possibly Vision.
Will Wanda Die?
One of the strongest in the Avengers, Wanda has a not-so-positive history in the universe. Not only is she not a typical hero saving the world, but her fate is also very dramatic. Perhaps in this film, Wanda will go through a path of redemption and heroically die for this world. But don't forget about the possibilities of the multiverse, where another Wanda could live with her Vision.
Maria Rambeau – Captain Marvel?
In one of the screenshots, fans spotted a clearly new actress in the role of Captain Marvel. The costume and abilities fit. This is Carol Danvers' best friend, and her daughter Monica appeared in WandaVision.
Who Is in the Illuminati?
A secret society that convenes when important decisions concerning the fate of the entire Earth are made. They have political influence. The original members were: Tony Stark, Doctor Strange, Professor X, Namor, Reed Richards, and Black Bolt. Here we might see a version of Stark played by Tom Cruise and Reed Richards played by John Krasinski. Well, the appearance of Professor X is no longer in question.
Debut of Namor?
Yes, this is another Sub-Mariner you need to get to know. He is a member of the Illuminati and belongs to the X-Men universe. A mutant, born to a sea captain and a princess of the kingdom of Atlantis (does that ring a bell?). Interestingly, Namor in the comics was an opponent of T'Challa and could later head to Wakanda.
What Are the Vishanti?
So, Stephen Strange, according to rumors and fan theories, will master Chaos Magic. And there is another wonderful book in the library that could help him with this – the Book of Vishanti. It contains the most powerful defensive spells, essentially they can block any other magic. The book's contents were passed down by the Vishanti – a group of mystical beings who protect the Earth realm and communicate with the Sorcerers Supreme. In the comics, Strange uses this book to determine if certain characters are lying to him, and thus he identified the Skrulls.
What Is the Role of the Darkhold?
We've already mentioned this book of dark spells several times while watching WandaVision. In the comics, the Darkhold is connected to the god Chthon, and its spells should be treated with caution. But we already have an idea that we'll see a dark version of Strange. Most likely, it was he who used dark magic, which had a strong influence on him.
The new episode of WandaVision, or 'It's All Agatha,' is full of new theories about the main villain. We've gathered all the cool Easter eggs — Stan Lee, 'The Office,' the book, the nexus, Chthon, and much more. A big overview
Open materialWhat's on the Posters?
Many official stills and posters have been released for the film, where you can spot many interesting details. For example, fans saw Captain Carter's shield, who according to rumors might appear in this multiverse. Also, someone spotted Deadpool in motion, and on one of the glass shards there is some entity, possibly referencing Chthon. He is the creator of the Darkhold. Chthon can take the form of a humanoid or be depicted as Cthulhu. Such a creepy image would fit perfectly with the film's style.
New Sorcerer Supreme?
Currently, the Sorcerer Supreme is Wong. And as he himself said, simply because there were no other candidates. The events of the new film could lead to the official appointment of Strange as the Sorcerer Supreme when he passes the trials set for him.
Spider-Man in Strange?
So, the footage from trailers and TV spots gives food for thought. Fans immediately spotted an 'easter egg': a cloak crashing into a food truck from Joe's Pizza Parlour. We've seen it somewhere before, haven't we? Right. Peter Parker from the Tobey Maguire version worked as a delivery boy at this establishment. You can figure out the theory yourself from here.
Is Doctor Strange a Skrull?
We've been familiar with the Skrulls from several films and series. Moreover, the studio itself can't help but use such a twist, which was often pulled in the comics: Skrulls secretly replaced superheroes. This way, several storylines could be rewritten, including Strange himself. The theory has been actively fueled since the last Spider-Man.
Christine Palmer – Night Nurse?
A surgeon, former colleague of Doctor Strange and his ex-girlfriend, could be officially introduced as the comic book hero 'Night Nurse'. This is a medical worker who specializes in helping injured superheroes. Moreover, in Strange's first solo film, she was already essentially performing these functions. In the comics, she is also connected to the X-Men – Nightcrawler and Storm. Fans speculate that we might see a scene of an overcrowded hospital where a bunch of multiverse superheroes are waiting for help.
Multiverse of Madness. Part 2?
There are rumors that the film was actually split into two parts. This theory is fueled by rumors that the sequel to Strange was originally supposed to be 3 hours long. Would they really cut a whole hour of material for no reason? After all, Thor and Spider-Man aren't the only ones getting their solo films in the next phases?
