New ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ Teaser Shows All the Threats Hidden in the MCU Multiverse

Stephen Strange will need a lot of magic to fight all these enemies at once.

Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) is facing his reckoning in a new teaser for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, as enemies from every dimension threaten the Master of Mystic Arts. And, as the teaser reminds us, Stephen is not alone in the next big chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and old and new allies will join him.

The new teaser opens with a voiceover by the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton), asking Stephen who he is in the vastness of the multiverse. In the following seconds, we get glimpses of everything Doctor Strange will have to face in the upcoming film, such as the returning wizard-hunter Karl Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor), an interdimensional squid monster, an evil version of himself, and even Marvel’s Illuminati.

While most of the footage present in the new teaser was already part of previous trailers, we also get some new frames that will surely add a lot to the rumors surrounding the film. For instance, the teaser shows Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) destroying what looks like a metal helmet, which could point out to a return of Ultron or maybe the MCU’s first appearance of Professor X’s Cerebro machine. In addition, we also get a new glimpse of a flying human involved in energy, which could be a multiverse alternative version of Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) or maybe even the Fantastic Four’s Human Torch.
