New Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Footage Teases Some Major Cameos

Same, Strange.

A new glimpse of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has dropped, perhaps by accident. Although we’ve already seen plenty of the movie, this new 10-second trailer still has something new to show us.

Check out the new spot, published by Marvel Studios Canada, below, but if you’re trying to keep yourself free of spoilers before next week...

If you didn’t catch those two cameos, we’ve got them screenshot for you below. Amid the many multiverses that Strange seems to have broken into, he’s managed to find Peggy Carter as Captain Carter and the already teased Charles Xavier, in at least one of their many iterations. Granted, the clip is only 10 seconds long and fairly fast, so this first screenshot is a little blurry.

That’s definitely Captain Carter’s shield. In a few universes, Peggy Carter picked up the shield during World War II instead of Steve Rogers, first in the Marvel Puzzle Quest games and then eventually as a part of Saladin Ahmed and Javier Rodriguez’s Exiles comic series. This version of Peggy was brought into the limelight in Marvel’s animated What If...? anthology last year.

We’ve heard a voice in past trailers that was confirmed to be Sir Patrick Stewart himself, reprising his role as Professor X. What cinches it is this yellow mobility aid that looks very much like the canary yellow hover-chair that Charles Xavier has used in the comics but also, most notably, in the ‘90s X-Men: The Animated Series.

In addition to this short teaser a longer, one-minute clip was released to IMDB.

Interesting to note that America Chavez, in the first few seconds of this clip, actually runs into the bus as its being destroyed by Gargantos. Since it seems like the bus is empty by the time that Strange opens it up with his magical tutting routine, I would hazard a guess that America punch-portaled any civilians to safety while Strange figured out what to do about the decidedly monster-of-water Gargantos. If you want to read more about the scene, you can check out our description of it and the rest of the first 20 minutes of the movie after Disney screened it at CinemaCon yesterday.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and its myriad cameos will hit theaters May 6.

14 of Rick and Morty's Most Excellent Season 4 Moments

In episode nine, “Childrick of Mort,” Rick fought a god when they both fell for the same woman. Er, planet. That moment doesn’t make our list, but it’s still a damn good one. Screenshot: Adult Swim It’s still hard to believe—after so many lengthy delays between previous seasons —that season five of Adult Swim’s Rick and Morty is almost upon us. While we count down the moments until the Emmy-winning series returns on June 20, we thought we’d also look back on season four, highlighting 14 of our favorite and most memorable moments (in no particular order... though we do have one very top favorite, as you’ll see) involving mostly Rick and Morty—but also Summer, Beth, Jerry, and Rick and Morty ’s creatively deployed guest stars too. “Why can you talk?” Screenshot: Adult Swim The A-plot of episode four, “Claw and Hoarder: Special Ricktim’s Morty,” follows the adventures of Rick, Morty, and Summer as they attempt to rescue Morty’s “slut dragon,” Balthromaw, from an evil wizard. ...

Studio Ghibli Park Unveils Its Wondrous Valley of Witches

Screenshot: Kyodo News/YouTube With the Valley of Witches set to open March 16, Ghibli Park will finally be complete. Since 2022, the attraction—nestled in the Expo 2005 Aichi Commemorative Park in Nagoya, Japan—has unlocked realms inspired by Studio Ghibli’s legacy of films . But it’s not to be mistaken for a modern theme park; Hayao Miyazaki himself mandated that the experiences offered at Ghibli Park should evoke being in a Ghibli movie without disturbing the natural surroundings. So it’s more of a throwback to nostalgic attractions and walkthroughs with a carnival ride flair. Inspired by films including My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away, the first phase of opening kicked off two years ago, with other areas opening as they were completed. With the Valley of Witches, which features attractions inspired by Howl’s Moving Castle and Kiki’s Delivery Service, among others, the theme park will finally be open in full beginning March 16. Media outlets such as Kyodo News were able...
