On Dec 23, 2021

Those who watched Spider-Man: No Way Home were treated with a glimpse of the upcoming second instalment in the Doctor Strange franchise titled Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Added as a second post-credit scene in Spider-Man: No Way Home, the Doctor Strange 2 teaser left the audience gobsmacked as for the first time it introduced the live-action Evil Doctor Strange who is touted to be even more powerful than Doctor Strange.

Besides Evil Doctor Strange, the teaser also showcased the side effects of the botched up spell that Doctor Strange put up in Spider-Man: No Way Home, his meeting with the Scarlet Witch and his love life.

Now, the teaser has officially been released online and fans have been going crazy over it on social media.

Watch the teaser below:

Many fans have been drawing parallels of the live-action Evil Doctor Strange to its animated counterpart that they first saw earlier this year in Marvel Studios’s What If…?

There are others who are hyped by the fact that they will get to see Scarlet Witch after WandaVision.

Also, there have been several reactions to the doomed love life of Strange as Christine Palmer is seen making a comeback to MCU.

Take a look at some of the reactions below:

“Why is Doctor Strange being so out of character in Spider-Man No Way Home?!?!”

Not just the teaser trailer, a teaser poster of the film was also released which is quite trippy and goes well with the narrative of the upcoming film. Take a look at it below:

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness was initially helmed by Scott Derrickson who also directed the previous film. However, he soon took an exit from the sequel citing creative differences with Marvel Studios.

The studio then roped in Sam Raimi known for helming the original Spider-Man trilogy. It was only fitting that Spider-Man: No Way Home marked the return of Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man and it also featured Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness teaser, in a way, marking their reunion after the 2007 blockbuster Spider-Man 3.

Starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Rachel McAdams, Elizabeth Olsen, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Benedict Wong, the movie is slated for a May 6, 2022 release.
