The trend will continue next month, as Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch stars opposite Cumberbatch in  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . The  Thor  franchise is no stranger to this method either.

Image
Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures' Spider-Man: No Way Home took some of the biggest chances in any superhero movie ever, particularly by bringing Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire's web-slingers all into the same film. After keeping the secrets about their arrival in the MCU for more than a year, Garfield and Maguire made their presence felt in a big way in the threequel's third act. Although part of the trio's time together saw them putting on their scientist caps to develop cures for the Multiversal villains, the cheers and thrills came from seeing all three in their red-and-blue suits fighting bad guys. From witnessing Maguire and Garfield back in their Spidey suits to taking in moments where these heroes interacted with the MCU's regulars, the threequel found a way to deliver moments that meant something to the fans and the story alike.

Loki Scores Big With Multiple WGA Awards Noms

Image
Marvel Studios’ access to the wonderful tool that is Disney+ has enriched the Marvel Cinematic Universe in ways many thought was impossible. Characters who would never have received the spotlight or even made it on screen have now had the chance to shine. Many people thought there would be over-saturation, but the viewership of shows like WandaVision or Loki would say otherwise. It also helps that the studios’ many projects are of quality. Each one generally received favorable reviews throughout their runs and positive impressions from fans. ADVERTISEMENT The two most popular ones were, no doubt, Elizabeth Olsen’s transformation into the Scarlet Witch and Tom Hiddleston’s journey through the  Multiverse. Both shows were the king of weekly conversations amongst the internet while airing. They haven’t gone unnoticed when it comes to award potential either, as WandaVision previously won Emmys.

No Way Home's Ending Is a Big Problem for the MCU's Multiverse

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  finally allowed the MCU to utilize the Multiverse to bring together multiple generations of fan-favorite elements from the wall-crawler's cinematic history. Despite how satisfying it was for viewers, this created one big problem for the MCU's web-slinger as Tom Holland's hero had to face off against villains from five different Spider-Man movies throughout  No Way Home . Even with villains from across two decades of film, the story throughout the threequel still felt MCU-centric thanks to the incorporation of Doctor Strange and his magic, as well as continued talk about The Blip and Captain America's shield being added to the Statue of Liberty. Keeping with the theme, Spider-Man: No Way Home went a step further to set new expectations and ramifications for the Marvel Cinematic Universe as it became the first feature film to fully dive into the concept of the Multiverse.  ADVERTISEMENT But Peter Parker's big s...
