Multiverse Of Madness Concept Art Shows Even More Doctor Strange Variants
Concept art from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness reveals even more potential looks for multiversal variants. The film, which is the first Phase 4 Marvel Cinematic Universe entry to hit theaters this year, came out on May 6, 2021, and instantly became the second-biggest film of the pandemic era after its predecessor Spider-Man: No Way Home. It's the second solo film to feature Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange after 2016's eponymous film, though the character has appeared in the Avengers crossover films Infinity War and Endgame as well as making an appearance in Thor: Ragnarok and holding a significant role in No Way Home.
In fact, the events of No Way Home directly inform the goings-on in Doctor Strange 2. In that film, one of Strange's spells went wrong and forced Peter Parker to do battle with villains from previous Spider-Man universes. Although that problem was solved by the end of the film, the multiverse comes back to bite Strange with the arrival of America Chavez (Xocitl Gomez), a teenager with the ability to travel between different universes. Her power is greatly desired by Scarlet Witch, who sends a variety of vicious creatures after her to obtain it. While attempting to protect America, Strange ends up on a universe-hopping adventure and encounters several different multiversal variants of himself, including an Evil Doctor Strange and a more morally grey Doctor Strange with a ponytail.
