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.

The Only Version of Return of the King Worth Watching Missing From Max After Streaming Bug

Screenshot: Warner Bros. Bad news for Max subscribers who’ve made re-watching The Lord of the Rings extended editions an annual New Year tradition: the third film in the trilogy, The Return of the King — which just celebrated its 20th anniversary! —is only available to stream in its theatrical version. No ancient evil is to blame, thankfully; it’s an unspecified “tech issue,” according to a Max spokesperson who responded to a comment request from Vulture after the issue was noted by dismayed fans on Reddit . The fact that The Return of the King extended edition is merely temporarily unavailable is actually good news given Max’s track record for removing content in the past, and the explanation makes sense considering The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers remain available in both their theatrical and extended editions. The Max spokesperson assured Vulture that The Return of the King extended edition will be, ah, returning soon to the service, though as of this writing i...

You Can Visit Freddy Fazbear's Pizza in Hollywood

Image: Universal Pictures Just in time for Halloween and for the release of Blumhouse and Universal Pictures’ Five Nights at Freddy ’s fans can visit a pop-up location of the fictional franchise from the game and film. That’s right, a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has mysteriously appeared in Hollywood. Like in the game and upcoming film, it’s a run-down spot that’s been closed down due to some mysterious activity within. Unfortunately, you can’t actually go in unless you’re hired as a security guard (kidding)—it’s just a facade for photo-ops you can visit. Check out the video captured by deadboifilms on TikTok below at the location on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood (near the Chateau Marmont Hotel). If you want to encounter the animatronic band of fuzzy and totally friendly creatures from the game, you’ll have to visit Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror Nights, there’s a walk-through in the DreamWorks theater lobby that’s been taken over by Blumhouse which features the real Jim ...
