A brand new trailer
A month before the film’s release, its promotion is intensifying. Marvel Korea has indeed just released a brand new IMAX trailer of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. New images that show extended versions of the sequences already revealed in previous teasers. The opportunity to learn more about the connections between Sam Raimi’s film and the series What If…?.
There are many clues that confirm that Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will be linked to the series What If…? It’s been known for some time now that the Dark Strange from the animated series will be in Sam Raimi’s film. Also played by Benedict Cumberbatch, this dark version of the wizard is likely to have a significant impact on the entire plot. We also know that Strange will wander from one reality to another and so travel the multiverse with America Chavez.
The latest trailer seems to emphasize this point. We can thus see Strange change reality and pass through several settings that resemble those presented in What If…?. If we’re lucky, the former Sorcerer Supreme might even take a leap into the universe of Ultron, the one where the killer robot defeated the Avengers and became king of the planet. So, do Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will bring Ultron back to the fore? In this movie, anything is possible.
