A new fan poster for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness shows a dark version of Marvel's multiverse. Doctor Strange 2 is directed by Sam Raimi and features returning star Benedict Cumberbatch in the lead role of Doctor Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts. Other cast members returning for the film include Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Benedict Wong, while bringing new members to the franchise, including Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch and MCU newcomers Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez. Patrick Stewart is also set to appear as X-Men's Professor X.
A darker multiverse tale has been teased in the Doctor Strange 2 trailers thus far, which pick up from events in Spider-Man: No Way Home, when Strange opened up the multiverse by accident, causing invaders from other Spider-Man movie universes to enter the world of Tom Holland's Peter Parker. In addition, other major events that have transpired inside the multiverse (particularly in the Disney+ series What If...? and potentially Loki) are expected to play a role in the proceedings in Doctor Strange 2, as well as introducing a number of new characters, creatures, and threats to the MCU, including The Illuminati, Shuma-Gorath, Rintrah, and much more.
A new fan poster for the film from Instagram user arjun_offl1 shows off a darker look at Doctor Strange 2's MCU multiverse. The poster features the evil version of Doctor Strange, as well as the film's supporting cast seeped in shadow and looking ready to face a terrible threat. The poster has a horror-movie-like feel to it, with some creepy shadow figures included, alluding to the people, creatures, or entities attempting to break through the multiverse. However, upon closer inspection it appears that at least two of the figures are known heroes, potentially Hugh Jackman's Wolverine and the superhero known as Nova. -Screen Rant
