My Revolution of PARTs

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is just over a week away, and fans are on the edge of their seats with anticipation. The upcoming Marvel Studios project is set to take a deep dive into the many realities that make up existence. Alongside Benedict Cumberbatch's titular hero, Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch, Benedict Wong's Sorcerer, and Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez will be joining the fray. Wong has seen an expanded role in the MCU recently. As of  Spider-Man: No Way Home , the character was revealed to be the Sorcerer Supreme—a role lost to Stephen Strange thanks to being blipped. ADVERTISEMENT On top of saving existence in the upcoming film, the sorcerer has, and will likely be, a busy man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings  he can be seen overseeing Abomination, and if rumors are true, he'll be popping up for a notable role in  She-Hulk . So who would the actor want to int...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  will soon hit theaters. Not only will the magical blockbuster see the return of Doctor Strange, Wong, and Scarlet Witch, but it will also feature the debut of Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez, the latest Young Avenger to be introduced in the MCU in Phase 4. 15-year-old Marvel newcomer Xochitl Gomez will make her first appearance as America Chavez in  Multiverse of Madness . The young hero's powers not only include superhuman strength, speed, and durability but also the ability to traverse the Multiverse - a talent that will prove to be a great asset to Doctor Strange and his team. ADVERTISEMENT America Chavez is both a lesbian and of Latin-American origin, two character traits that will carry over to her live-action portrayal. Unfortunately, due to restrictions on releases in certain regions, Chavez's LGBTQIA+ status and mention of her "two moms" has led to  Multiverse of Madness  being ban...

The upcoming  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is a sequel full of both second steps and new beginnings. The film will continue the long-running stories of Benedict Cumberbatch's Stephen Strange and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff, while also launching fan-favorite rookie characters like Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez. Since the promotional campaign for  Doctor Strange 2  kicked off in December 2021, America Chavez has been at the forefront alongside the film's leading stars. While Chavez is a Marvel Cinematic Universe freshman, she has been prominently featured on Marvel Comics pages over the past decade. ADVERTISEMENT In the comics, Chavez possesses the unique ability to travel through the Multiverse via her star portals. This defining power is set to translate to the big screen, as director Sam Raimi previously revealed that Strange will have  "to learn from a kid"  how to navigate the concept he knows frightenin...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is just around the corner, meaning that fans will soon witness the returns of Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen as Stephen Strange and Wanda Maximoff, respectively. Following the events of  WandaVision ,  Loki , and Spider-Man: No Way Home , Strange is tasked with exploring the Multiverse along with Scarlet Witch, Benedict Wong's Wong, and Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez. Leading up to the release of the film, new featurettes and short TV spots are being revealed on a near-daily basis. In most of these cases, the released footage is only raising more questions, rather than providing answers. However, in one instance, Patrick Stewart's Professor X, who was all but confirmed in the main trailer, was given an expanded look. ADVERTISEMENT This was thanks to the ScreenX format that some theaters offer, which expands the camera shot and allows the viewer to see farther on each side. The quick glimp...

Despite being just two weeks away, the plot of  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  remains vastly mysterious. Fans know the film will feature Benedict Cumberbatch's titular hero teaming up with Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch and Xochitil Gomez's America Chavez as they navigate the Multiverse, but the specificities of the dangers that arise are still up in the air. Olsen's Scarlet Witch has been rumored to walk the line between good and evil, while trailer footage has spotlighted the tentacled titan Gargantos as a Kaiju that the heroes will have to do battle with. From there, speculation takes over. How will Patrick Stewart's Illuminati factor in? Is there a Captain Marvel Variant flying around? What does Kang the Conqueror think of all this? ADVERTISEMENT Uncertainty stays at the forefront of  Doctor Strange 2 , but new footage has begun to steer fans in the right direction. Doctor Strange 2's Book of Vishanti Are you...

As Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness comes over the horizon towards its release date, the anticipation begins to build to a fever pitch. New advertising has shown off fresh moments from Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff while other reports have teased once again how this movie will connect to other projects in theaters and on Disney+. And of course, even that still leaves a Patrick Stewart-shaped elephant in the room to address. Ever since Marvel Studios delivered the Super Bowl trailer for Doctor Strange 2 , Patrick Stewart's Professor X has been one of the most consistent conversation topics in regard to this movie's impact on the MCU. Stewart has even commented on the footage a couple of times, even denying having seen it at all at first, although he expressed his thrill to be back in a new version of the role with Marvel Studios. ADVERTISEMENT With the leading X-Men figure being such a major reveal within this incredible story, ...

Leading into its May 6 release, much of  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness remains a mystery. And what Marvel fans do know has only added to its mystique. For instance, not only is it a sequel to 2016's Doctor Strange,  but  Doctor Strange 2  is also a continuation of  Spider-Man: No Way Home  and directed by Sam Raimi, the director of Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man trilogy. Of course, this has led to speculation that Marvel Studios may have a Raimi and Maguire reunion in mind. After all, if Strange can be in a Multiversal Spider-Man movie, why can't a Spider-Man be in a Multiversal Doctor Strange movie? ADVERTISEMENT In addition to rumors that Tobey Maguire has a role in the upcoming film, a recent  Multiverse of Madness promo featuring Joe's Pizza from Spider-Man 2 has only heightened speculation. However, at the same time, new reports have also claimed just the opposite on the Doctir Strange sequel's connection to other S...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is set to be a sequel that reaches far beyond Benedict Cumberbatch's franchise. Marvel Studios' May release will also address the plot of Elizabeth Olsen's  WandaVision , and rumblings of  Loki  ties have been active since the God of Mischief broke the Sacred Timeline last summer. The presence of Benedict Wong's Wong also links his 2021 Marvel appearances,  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings  and  Spider-Man: No Way Home , to  Doctor Strange 2 .  Out of all the Phase 4 projects fans have seen so far, the only one without a clear path moving forward is Chloe Zhao's  Eternals . ADVERTISEMENT The immortal ensemble was a game changer, but its placement in the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe remains unknown. With half the roster killed off and the active members splitting up, the futures of Sersi and company are still in question. Some have been brought before Arishem for judgement, whi...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is just weeks away, and much of the movie-going world waits with bated breath for the Multiversal sequel. The  Doctor Strange  follow-up has been six years in the making with comic book movie vet Sam Raimi sitting in the director's chair. Raimi was not always the man behind the Benedict Cumberbatch-starring MCU epic, but after Scott Derrickson left the project, Raimi took over directing duties. Even after Raimi took a hold of the steering wheel from Derrickson, the project has been in a state of flux.  MoM  has seen multiple delays due to COVID-19 and lengthy reshoots, but Marvel has seemingly put the pieces together.  ADVERTISEMENT The sequel will see Benedict Cumberbatch's Stephen Strange traverse the Multiverse alongside Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff and Xochitl Gomez's America Chavez. It is supposedly going to be a cameo-filled odyssey across various Marvel realities. From the outside, ...

With only a few weeks left until its release, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is a film about which fans know frighteningly little. While Marvel has released multiple teasers, trailers, and posters for this Multiversal horror flick, the plot of Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange 2 and its potential impact on the greater MCU is still a mystery.  What fans do know is that Strange is embarking on a Multiversal adventure where he will encounter multiple Stephen Stranges, and possibly the Illuminati, alongside Rachel McAdam's Christine Palmer, Xochitl Gomez' America Chavez, and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff.  ADVERTISEMENT Due to the events of WandaVision on Disney+, and from what  Doctor Strange 2  promo spots have revealed, it appears that Wanda is anything but a background character in this upcoming sequel. And, now, in the midst of the film's last marketing push, a new report suggests the Scarlet Witch's on-scr...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  has been teased as the MCU's first horror flick, and as such, fans can look forward to plenty of scares and casualties. Marvel Studios remains tight-lipped as to who or what will be terrorizing Benedict Cumberbatch's magical Avenger this time around, but all signs are pointing towards Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch. Having held hundreds of civilians hostage in her own sitcom reality in  WandaVision , allowing her to live out her fantasy family life, Wanda Maximoff is sitting dangerously on the edge between hero and villain. With the popular Avenger last seen studying the Darkhold, a book of ancient spells she obtained from Agatha Harkness, many have theorized she will soon become corrupted by its power. ADVERTISEMENT The trailers have shown Scarlet Witch positioned both alongside and against Doctor Strange's magical team, although the presence of multiple Variants makes things all the more con...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is set to make MCU history by being the first MCU movie to fully tie into a story that originated on Disney+. Thanks to Elizabeth Olsen's leading role as Wanda Maximoff in this movie, fans will get to see what she's been up to since leading the way in WandaVision , Phase 4's first new release last year. With WandaVision coming directly in between Wanda's return to life in Avengers: Endgame and her most prominent role yet in Doctor Strange 2 , the show has plot points that will continue having an impact on the Scarlet Witch moving forward. From her personal tussle with Agatha Harkness to the deep connections she made with her twin sons, the long-standing heroine has plenty to look back on from her past as she tackles her future. ADVERTISEMENT Another lesser-discussed part of her story from WandaVision was her experience with the Darkhold, which first debuted in Episode 8 before taking a more ...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is poised to be the  Avengers -lite crossover event of Phase 4. Just as  Captain America: Civil War  and  Thor: Ragnarok  united heroes from across the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a solo sequel,  Multiverse of Madness  will bring together Benedict Cumberbatch's Stephen Strange and Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff, as well as limitless Variants of both current and legacy Marvel characters. 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...

Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will release soon, and audiences worldwide are close to being able to finally take a deep dive into alternate realities with the former Sorcerer Supreme. One of the biggest elements of the movie is how Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff will also be returning, potentially even being an antagonist. The last time audiences spent time with the Scarlet Witch, she was navigating her post Avengers: Endgame grief after the death of her beloved Vision. How? Well, in an extremely unhealthy way: by mind-controlling an entire town to fulfill her sitcom dreams. ADVERTISEMENT This faux life of hers included her former lover, Paul Bettany’s Vision. By the end of the series, the android that made it out wasn’t the one Wanda—or the audiences—knew. The last fans saw the newly bleached hero was him flying off-screen to an unknown location. Given Wanda’s focus in Multiverse of Madness , it seems at least a...

The beginning of May will bring Marvel Studios back into the theatrical spotlight with the franchise's 28th movie, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , on the big screen. Although spoilers for this film have mostly remained under the radar ahead of its debut, Doctor Strange 2 has become the biggest film event since Spider-Man: No Way Home . Rumors are pointing to dozens of new and old characters potentially playing roles in this massive sequel, which will truly open the doors to the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Multiverse for the first time on the big screen. While the spoilers aren't coming nearly as furiously as they did for the Spider-Man threequel, there are still concerns about plot leaks potentially spoiling what's coming in Marvel's next summer blockbuster. ADVERTISEMENT During the lead-up to No Way Home , fans learned that many screeners for the film would only show the first 40 minutes of action, which meant that ev...

Marvel Studios has a lot to look forward to in the coming weeks, particularly with the upcoming theatrical release for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . Ahead of this film, Marvel and Funko have released their next round of Pops! to celebrate the rookie and veteran heroes joining forces in this story.  However, not all the response to these Funkos has been of the positive variety. ADVERTISEMENT Xochitl Gomez is set to make her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut as the Multiverse-jumping heroine America Chavez, and she has as big of a role as anybody alongside Doctor Strange and Wanda Maximoff. This made her unquestionably deserving of getting her own Funko, but upon its arrival, its appearance incited some major backlash from Marvel fans. Specifically, the complaints pointed out that Chavez's skin was much lighter in color than her on-screen actress in Gomez, with the fan base calling Funko and its developers out for whitewashing.
