My Revolution of PARTs

When Marvel Studios released Doctor Strange in 2016, the film stood apart from most of the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the time due to its mystical origin story and imaginative visual style. Now, six years and multiple MCU appearances later, Benedict Cumberbatch's sequel is set to break the mold once more in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . While Doctor Strange 2 is a sequel, it's also a continuation of the Multiversal themes explored in Spider-Man: No Way Home and, due to Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff's presence, an extension of her story from Disney+'s  WandaVision . ADVERTISEMENT What truly separates Multiverse of Madness from the larger MCU is its grim tone. In addition to being directed by  The   Evil Dead 's Sam Raimi, Doctor Strange 2 has long been teased to offer a "horror show vibe." Now, ahead of its May 6 theatrical debut, fans are getting a better idea of what to expect from this darker...

WARNING: This article contains spoilers for Episode 4 of Moon Knight . The Marvel Studios Disney+ series  Moon Knight  just aired its fourth episode, and fans across the world are undoubtedly still processing everything that happened within it.  Layla and Steven got some bonding time, Arthur got to have a good talk with Marc’s wife, and the two heroes of the story barely survived being hunted down by a mysterious creature. ADVERTISEMENT Most of all, however, was that Oscar Isaac’s leading character was shot, and potentially killed. As he sank into the water where his body landed, Marc wakes up in a mental hospital—one where there are just all too many signs that everything in the last four episodes has been a lie. It looks like, at one point and time, an earlier cut of the installment had even more for audiences to process. Now, thanks to an official recap posted by Marvel themselves, fans can get a glimpse into a deleted scene that simply didn’t make t...

When it was initially announced at 2019's San Diego Comic-Con,  Thor: Love and Thunder  promised to be unlike anything Marvel Studios has done before. Even as director Taika Waititi describes this as more of a  "second Ragnarok film"  than a traditional fourth  Thor  movie, its placement in the God of Thunder's franchise still makes it a senior year installment. On that note,  Love and Thunder  is the first time Marvel Studios is going beyond a trilogy for a solo franchise, but likely not the last. Marvel Studios has waited until late in the game to give fans their first looks at upcoming Phase 4 movies much in part due to the pandemic's impact on filming schedules, post-production work, and flimsy release date placements.  Thor: Love and Thunder felt these delays throughout the entirety of its production and into its promotional push, and eager fans were left hyper-analyzing trailer patterns to no avail, as the Taika Waititi-directed f...

After multiple delays, Morbius , Sony's latest addition to its Spider-Man Universe, has finally arrived in theaters. Whether fans wish it had is another question. While audiences have their issues with the film's plot and quality, much of the outcry stems from the film's misleading promotional campaign and the use of Michael Keaton's Vulture from Spider-Man: Homecoming .  Following  Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage , Morbius was intended to be the third installment in Sony's MCU adjacent Spider-Man Universe. When delays led to the project releasing after Spider-Man: No Way Home , fans were curious to see how the studio would continue to handle the existence of Multiversal Spideys in the following film.  ADVERTISEMENT This intrigue was only heightened by the fact Morbius ' trailer featured references to both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man franchises, as well as a clip of Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes or...

Sony Pictures' universe of Spider-Man characters has been a divisive topic for a long time amongst fans. Many feel like the studio is consistently mishandling its characters, and that they'd be better off alongside Tom Holland's Spider-Man in the MCU. However, Sony doesn't feel the same way. They have already released  Venom  and  Venom: Let There Be Carnage , and a third entry is on its way: Jared Leto's  Morbius . The project is once again set to focus on a Spider-Man villain sans the Spidey aspect. This time fans will get to know Doctor Michael Morbius, who accidentally turns himself into a vampire after trying to find a cure for his blood disease. ADVERTISEMENT With the Multiverse in full effect thanks to the likes of  Loki  and  Spider-Man: No Way Home , one has to wonder: what universe does this new film take place in? Going by marketing material, it doesn't even seem like Sony knows for themselves. Warning - The rest of th...

Although Robert Downey Jr.'s time playing Iron Man in the MCU has seemingly come to an end, his legacy as the character continues to make an impact on the franchise's future. Marvel Studios is already paying tribute to that legacy in various ways, particularly with shows like Don Cheadle's Armor Wars and Dominique Thorne's Ironheart joining the fray in the coming years. Fans are also adamant about celebrating Iron Man's time in the MCU in any way they see fit through conversations about the MCU's past, present, and future. From the debate about Iron Man 3 being a Christmas movie to Easter eggs in projects that have debuted since Tony Stark's death in Avengers: Endgame , the MCU's OG Avenger remains a constant presence looming over the story. ADVERTISEMENT Iron Man also helped Marvel Studios subsequently advance its merchandising acumen, which continues to grow with each new MCU entry to release. Now, reports are sharing...

Marvel Studios is in the fast lane towards  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . After debuting its first teaser as the second post-credits scene of  Spider-Man: No Way Home , Stephen Strange's sophomore solo installment dropped its second trailer immediately following its Super Bowl TV spot. This comes roughly three months before  Multiverse of Madness  hits theaters, bringing Marvel back to its famous May weekend for the first time since 2017's  Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 . While the new Doctor Strange 2  footage does its best to keep the film's biggest reveals shrouded in secrecy, it gives fans plenty of juicy frames to hyper-analyze. Without further ado, here are 12   Easter eggs, hidden meanings, and plot details within the latest  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  trailer.

Marvel Studios is less than two months away from making history once again. For the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's streaming era, a new hero will debut in their own self-titled series without ever being teased, referenced, or included in a previous movie or show. This rookie is Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight, a cloaked crusader that deals with Dissociative Identity Disorder. Isaac will make his first appearance as the future Midnight Son in Disney+'s  Moon Knight  next month. ADVERTISEMENT The first MCU project of 2022 has already begun its marketing campaign, unveiling a sizable teaser trailer in late January. Aside from a brief glimpse at antagonist Arthur Harrow, played by Ethan Hawke, the first  Moon Knight  footage does not reveal much about the show's plot. While the teaser is mostly a collection of confusion, it does name drop two of Isaac's alter egos: Steven Grant and Marc Spector. That said,  Moon Knight 's te...

Marvel Studios is taking a few weeks off from releasing content at the start of 2022, but the MCU is set to come back with a bang at the end of March. This will come with what is likely the first Disney+ show of the year for the franchise in Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight , which just got its first full trailer in preparation for that upcoming debut. To put it lightly, this first trailer teased potentially the MCU’s creepiest project to date as Isaac’s Marc Spector works through his issues stemming from Dissociative Identity Disorder. Coming with the reveal of Ethan Hawke’s obscure villain Arthur Harrow and one of the coolest costume reveals yet, the MCU seems set to deliver another thrilling adventure with this brand-new hero. ADVERTISEMENT With the Moon Knight character making his MCU debut in this solo series, fans will be in for some big-time lessons about the hero’s multiple personalities and the path he will have to travel as he gains his mystical power...

Marvel Studios is preparing for a massive year of content in 2022, one which will culminate its theatrical run this November with Ryan Coogler's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever . Although the sequel has had an incredibly tough time with production since the beginning after the passing of star Chadwick Boseman, Marvel and Coogler appear to be back on track to make Black Panther 2  a reality this year. Without Boseman's T'Challa, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will explore Wakanda as a whole as the mythical African nation opens its borders to the rest of the world. It will also include the long-awaited debuts of Dominique Thorne's Ironheart and Tenoch Huerta's Namor the Submariner. Even with two top-tier characters arriving in the sequel, further rumblings suggest one of Marvel Comics's biggest names could also show face. ADVERTISEMENT Over two years ago, reports teased that the Black Panther sequel was planning to introduce the MC...

Even though it's only been in theaters for a less than a month,  Spider-Man: No Way Home  has already shattered numerous records. The threequel generated the biggest opening weekend box office in over two years, eclipsed  Spider-Man: Far From Home  as Sony Pictures's most profitable movie, and entered the illustrious top ten of highest-grossing films of all time. With this type of bullet train momentum, Sony is clearing the tracks to ensure  No Way Home  keeps on rolling. Reports speculated that beyond COVID-19 concerns,  Morbius  was delayed from January to April in an effort to keep the spotlight solely on Spider-Man. ADVERTISEMENT While  Spider-Man: No Way Home  is bound to slow down at the theaters eventually, Sony is preparing to migrate the momentum to home release.

Marvel Studios is ending 2021 with one bang after another thanks to the recent release of Spider-Man: No Way Home in theaters and the conclusion of Hawkeye 's sixth episode on Disney+. No Way Home also delivered the first full look at 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , which will be the Marvel Cinematic Universe's next theatrical release on May 6, 2022. With the Multiverse officially a reality in the MCU thanks to the Spider-Man threequel, Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange will tackle the biggest challenge of his sorcerer tenure as multiple realities converge into the MCU. Teaming up with Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff, Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez, and more, Marvel Studios' 28th movie promises to change the landscape of this universe in multiple ways.
