Since Doctor Strange 2  began its marketing campaign in the post-credits scene of  Spider-Man: No Way Home , most of the film's secrets have been kept close to the vest. The second trailer revealed the return of Patrick Stewart's Professor X in an off-screen vocal cue, as well as the mysterious introduction of an energy-emblazed hero.  ADVERTISEMENT While the two aforementioned reveals were blatantly showcased,  Multiverse of Madness  has plenty of hidden Easter eggs throughout its promotional material.  Doc...

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  is a celebration of all things Spider-Man. The Tom Holland-led threequel included a plethora of callbacks to previous web-slinging films, which includes Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man trilogy and Andrew Garfield's pair of The Amazing Spider-Man movies. This all became possible due to the film's use of the Multiverse, bringing back the two Spider-Men and several iconic villains like Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin and Alfred Molina's Doctor Octopus.  One films that was heavily referenced in the threequel was 2004's  Spider-Man 2 .

No Way Home Featured One MCU Cameo Nearly All of Us Missed

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  recently brought to an end the first complete wall-crawler trilogy in over a decade. For the first time yet, Sony and Marvel Studios' ground-breaking deal allowed Spider-Man to interact with all corners of the Marvel world. Across the trilogy, Holland's Peter Parker ran into Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury, Cobie Smulders' Maria Hill, Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange, and even the Department of Damage Control. Marvel once had big plans for Damage Control as ABC planned to develop a half-hour, single-camera comedy series starring the government agency as a group of underpaid workers clean up the fallout of superhero conflicts. Unfortunately, after an unsuccessful and unaired pilot,  Damage Control  never saw the light of day, having been planned to air in 2016. ADVERTISEMENT The government department later made their MCU debut in 2017's  Spider-Man: Homecoming  to salvag...

No Way Home's Final Costume Has a Surprising Detail We All Missed

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  has finally come home, as fans can now purchase the film on digital platforms like iTunes and Vudu. This comes as the MCU Spidey threequel continues its extended run in theaters, earning close to $800 million domestically so far - and rightfully so. No Way Home  for a number of reasons brought fans back to the movie theaters to celebrate nearly twenty years of wall-crawling movies.  The Tom Holland-led MCU epic saw Marvel Studio's young hero get paired up with both past big-screen Spider-Men in Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, ultimately ending in Holland's webhead learning what it really meant to be Spider-Man. ADVERTISEMENT Marvel One of the most exciting things Garfield and Maguire left Holland's Avenger with was the inspiration for his final suit of the film. Seen in the concluding moments of  No Way Home , this comic-accurate costume featured bright blue highlights along with that signature Spidey red.  Howeve...

No Way Home Villain We All Missed

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home is nearly ready for its in-home digital and Blu-ray release after becoming the biggest blockbuster movie in recent memory. Featuring a villain team-up with five classic antagonists and all three cinematic Spider-Men coming together, this threequel has had fans talking up a storm for most of the last two years. No Way Home did what no other MCU movie in history had done before by introducing viewers to the Multiverse for the first time on the big screen, all thanks to Doctor Strange's botched spell. This allowed villains and heroes from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's universes to find their way into the MCU alongside Tom Holland, although this was just a tease of what could really be out there. ADVERTISEMENT During the film's climactic final battle, the Multiverse began tearing apart even further, teasing the existence of other villains like Kraven the Hunter and Scorpion from other universes. Now, in a new round...

Hawkeye VFX Supervisor Reveals Hulk Cameo That We All Missed (Exclusive)

Marvel Studios closed off 2021 with Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye on Disney+, finally giving a solo project to the only member of the original six Avengers who didn't yet have one. Tying back to the events of The Avengers , Avengers: Endgame , and several other classic MCU stories, the Hawkeye series found a way to pay tribute to the character's past while setting up a bright future as well. While the series largely served as Clint Barton's first solo story, these six episodes also gave Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop her first chance to shine in the MCU spotlight. ADVERTISEMENT Due to both heroes' stories being told simultaneously, Marvel had an even bigger opportunity than usual for Easter eggs to be included throughout the series. From multiple references to Paul Rudd's Ant-Man to early teases for Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin, Hawkeye certainly made the most of Marvel's material from the big screen and comics alike. ...

ADVERTISEMENT One nod that fans noticed as early as the movie's first trailer paid tribute to the late, great Stan Lee, one of Spidey's creators and the man behind everything Marvel has become over the decades. As it turns out, this wasn't the only time that No Way Home paid tribute to Lee as it closed out the web-slinger...
