Doctor Strange 2 will touch on a topic as important as the multiverse and Marvel has already shown us details of how it works.
Attention SPOILERS. After Avengers: Endgame (2019) in Marvel Studios have also decided to expand through the streaming platform Disney Plus with series like WandaVision, Hawkeye o moon knight. And every good fan of the saga knows that you have to see everything that is released in the right order so as not to miss anything of the story as a whole. Now they will launch Doctor Strange 2 and you have to review the series What if…? (What would happen if …?)because there will be several important references.
After what happened in Spider-Man: No Way Home, where a spell goes wrong and some villains from other universes make it to the main one, the concept of the multiverse becomes very important. In fact, there are some realities that are collapsing and the character of America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) will seek the help of Sorcerer Supreme. But best of all, there will be different versions of the great heroes of Marvel.
In the film we will see characters already presented.
The series What if …? shows us several realities and there is one where Ultron is done with Infinity Gems and begins to destroy Universes. Uatu, the watchman brings together a very powerful team made up of Capitana Carter, Gamora, Thor, Doctor Strange, Star Lord / T’Challa y Killmongerwho have the help of black widow.
In the film Doctor Strange 2 we will see several of these characters as Capitana Carter (Hayley Atwell) which will also have its own series in real action in Disney Plus y Doctor Strange Supremo (Benedict Cumberbatch). They probably won’t spend much time explaining details of the characters, that’s why you have to review the series What if …? before seeing this new installment of Marvel Studios.
As Captain Carter received the super soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers and traveled to the present, but in the film he will be part of the Illuminati. While Doctor Strange Supremo it has all kinds of dark creatures inside. So it will be interesting to see what role he will have in the film.
Doctor Strange 2 will premiere on May 6, 2022. Meanwhile, the series What if …? you can enjoy it as many times as you want the Disney Plus streaming platform.
