The Marvel train keeps moving, this time with the first official trailer for this spring’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Benedict Cumberbatch returns as the titular Doctor Strange after making an appearance in the red hot Spider-Man: No Way Home that hit theaters on December 17. This is the second Strange movie, and it will build on storylines from Doctor Strange, Infinity War, Endgame, the Disney+ series WandaVision, and more.
This trailer was included as a post-credit scene in No Way Home, and A LOT happens. Sam Raimi — who directed the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man trilogy and several horror flicks — is at the helm of Doctor Strange’s sophomore entry into the MCU, and his impact is felt throughout.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is set to release May 6, 2022.
Check out the trailer, and let’s talk about what to make of this.
“The Multiverse is a concept about which we know frighteningly little."
