Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer gives us hope that Marvel will not ruin the Sorcerer Supreme
After the successful release of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Sony and Marvel have seen the first real hit from the Phase 4 series of films. Almost everything after Endgame was rejected by fans with Black Widow and Shang Chi delivering middling box office returns. The media tried blaming everything without actually addressing the problem. Marvel does not understand the fans anymore. We’re hoping that trend does not continue with the latest in the MCU Phase 4 lineup, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The latest trailer for the second instalment of the adventures of Marvel’s Sorceror Supreme does look like a fun time and the return of Baron Mordo as well as the debut of Evil Strange.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer is outThe Multiverse was first explored in No Way Home with Strange opening up doorways to multiple dimensions in the extended MCU after a botched spell trying to help Peter Parker with a particular conundrum. Rest assured, you’ll find no spoilers here so we’ll keep it as clean as possible. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is essentially a play on the revered H.P Lovecraft tale, At the Mountains of Madness, but we assume it’ll have little to do with the famed horror writer, apart from the name. Could we see the return of the fearsome Dormammu? One thing we do know is that we’ll be getting our first look at Shuma-Gorath. The character was an important part of the Marvel Vs Capcom fight game series and this will be the first time we’re seeing a live-action version of the creature. The film is directed by Sam Raimi, the man behind the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man films as well as the Evil Dead trilogy. So, of anything, we know that Raimi can deliver. Our only fear is that the head honchos at Marvel will try and cut him out as they've done with countless directors who've challenged their bland, cookie-cutter aesthetics and storytelling skills.
Story details are still under wraps but from what we can see, we assume that it will revolve around the various incarnations of Strange from the multiverse. Could we see different versions of characters from the MCU in the film? We definitely hope so. It’ll give fans a fresh perspective on the characters they’ve fallen in love with over the years. We also get a look at the Scarlet Witch after she enslaved an entire town and never faced any serious repercussions for her heinous actions. In fact, she’s still a hero and is enlisted by Strange to help him with his predicament. We only hope that it’s not the Scarlet Witch film with Strange as a side character. Marvel is perfectly capable of pulling off that horrible bait and switch as the company has made it its mission to shove ‘The Message’ down our throats. We can only hope that Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will buck that awful trend.
