• villain Wanda

In a scene from the trailer for “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness”, we see dialogue from Wanda Maximoff confronting Stephen Strange with the following sentence: “You break the rules and become a hero. I want and become the enemy. It doesn’t seem fair to me.” Many came to believe that there would be a conflict between the two Avengers, but the movie went further.

When Wanda is corrupted by the Darkhold, a powerful book of magic, she assumes the identity of Scarlet Witch and is determined to steal America Chavez’s powers, not caring that the teenager would die in the process. That’s how they embark on a journey across the multiverse, to escape Wanda.

• The Illuminati

Fans have been waiting for years for the Illuminati to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the group, which is made up of the greatest minds in comics, was confirmed in one of the trailers for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse.

In the comics, the Illuminati is originally composed of: Charles Xavier (or Professor X), Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic, leader of the Fantastic Four), dating (the Sub-Mariner, leader-regent of Atlantica), Tony Stark (Iron Man, leader of the Avengers), black ray (leader of the Inhumans and king of the Inhuman race) and Stephen Strange himself.

However, for his first appearance in the MCU, the studio made some changes to the team members.

• Return of Patrick Stewart

One of the previews had already driven fans wild by revealing Strange talking to Professor X in Patrick Stewart and yes, he is back in his iconic role. Considered one of the most important characters in the universe of heroes, the Professor Xavier is the leader of the Illuminati and appears to stop Stephen from traveling irresponsibly across the multiverse.

• Maria Rambeau as Captain Marvel

The new lineup of the Illuminati has several surprises: Chiwetel Ejiofor how Supreme Wizard; Hayley Atwell how Captain Carter; Lashana Lynch how captain marvel; Anson Mount how black ray; and John Krasinski how Reed Richards.

In one of the trailers, Lynch’s uniform left many fans confused and some swore it was the superior iron mana variant of the Tony Stark that would supposedly be lived by Tone cruisethe star of action movies.

For those who don’t remember, Maria Rambeau is the best friend of Carol Danvers on Earth 616 and appears in the movie “Captain Marvel”. The character has a daughter, Monica Rambeau, who appears in the cast of the series “WandaVision” as one of the SWORD agents who frees Westview from Wanda’s powers.
