Marvel Studios has released the second full trailer of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. It teased three ways how Ultron could return to the MCU after his apparent death in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Of all the characters who are more likely to make a surprise appearance, one that most people expect to see reprising his role is Ultron. There have been plenty of theories about what could potentially bring him back, including time travel.

Many possible Marvel characters could end up being seen in the MCU sometime later on. But there are a few that make the most sense to be featured in Doctor Strange 2. That being said, these are the 3 ways in which Doctor Strange 2 can bring back Ultron to the MCU –

The Ultron Program Already Exists In The Multiverse

The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer revealed a plethora of multiversal possibilities. In addition to that, we have learned some information about the return of Ultron. It is safe to assume that Ultron will go back to his roots and start attacking The Avengers as a way to make up for losing in Age of Ultron. He also may attempt to use Doctor Doom as an ally once again. After all, they were both created by Tony Stark using the same code.

Now since it’s impossible to predict the future, a benevolent Ultron program could turn on its creators. This might lead to an epic battle between Madison and an upgraded AI. Moreover, the trailer teases a further rebellion by Ultron bot as it tries to thwart Scarlet Witch in protecting her sibling Vision in The Age of Ultron. Yet another possibility is that the 2 AIs will reside within their own dimensions; due to Mr. Stark playing matchmaker with Ultron and Scarlet Witch. We may just find our two bots beaming over from an alternate reality/multiverse.

The Trailer Teases A Multiversal Ultron

Marvel has discussed returning to the What If…?’s comics spin-offs before. But it appears fans are in for a treat via the multiverse of madness. In this regard, in the new trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, there was one scene that teased a return of an even more powerful version of Ultron.

Moreover, the Ultron presented in the What If…? series is an entirely different character to the one introduced in Avengers: Age of Ultron. In addition to this, it appears that Black Widow infected this Ultron with Arnim Zola’s virus – something which could be very significant for future MCU movies. It will possibly require Hawkeye to be present alongside Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch, and Ant-Man at some point.

In addition to future Marvel Cinematic Universe movies and television shows, Ultron could reappear in Marvel’s multiversal saga. The trailer of Doctor Strange 2 already highlighted a group of Ultron-type robots taking Doctor Strange to custody. Kang could also join the forces with the new age Ultron in Quantumania. This would also allow Hank Pym, Ultron’s original creator in the comics, to interact with the villain as a stranger in a strange land.
