Anson Mount shared behind-the-scenes stunt rehearsal footage for his cameo appearance as Black Bolt in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The Sam Raimi-directed film found the titular hero bouncing from universe to universe in an attempt to protect inter-dimensional being America Chavez (Xóchitl Gomez) from Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). The film's hype was boosted by wild speculation regarding the endless possibilities of cameos resulting from the movie's multiverse premises. One such cameo was Black Bolt, the king of the Inhuman Kingdom of Attilan, with Mount reprising his role as the hero previously seen in Marvel's ABC television series Inhumans.
After Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) arrives in the 838 universe, he is arrested by Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and brought in front of the Illuminati, a council of superheroes similar to that of the Avengers. Black Bolt is one of the six members of the council, along with Mr. Fantastic (John Krasinski), Captain Marvel/Maria Rambeau (Lashana Lynch), Captain Carter (Hayley Atwell), Mordo, and Professor X (Patrick Stewart). Strange learns that his 838 version was previously killed by Black Bolt's incredible vocal powers following their defeat of Thanos.
