Within a few months, the Sorcerer Supreme of the MCU is going to re-arrive in the theaters. However, this time, things are going to get even stranger than whatever happened in Spider-Man: No Way Home. With that being said, the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s fans have waited for around five years for things to happen again. Now that the sequel of 2016’s Doctor Strange is finally going to hit the doors of global cinema, fans have started talking about multiple theories that might take place anytime soon. These are the top ones that make a ton of sense –

Every single fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe knows that Kang the Conqueror is going to be a massive part of phase 4. Thanks to the Marvel and Disney+ series, Loki, we at least got to see the arrival of the legendary villain through the concept of the Multiverse. With that being said, fans are expecting a grand entry of the villain in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Moreover, his role is confirmed to appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania as well. But what all he could do and what are his capabilities; fans might get to see and discover them via Doctor Strange 2.

Loki Could Make A Guest Appearance

Loki has always been a crucial part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Famously known as the God of Mischief, Loki’s solo release via the Marvel and Disney+ series, Loki, has been one of the greatest things to happen this year. While it helped to portray a different side of the character’s personality, the show also catalyzed the introduction of Multiverse in the MCU. With that being said, fans are highly expecting and making theories around Loki’s entry or say guest appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. This makes sense because Doctor Strange has had an experience of dealing with him after all.

X-Men Might Make His MCU Debut

Now that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has introduced the concept of Multiverse in their projects, there are endless possibilities that might start taking place anytime soon. As a result, fans and critics are highly anticipating that now is the right time for the MCU to bring some prominent characters like X-Men into the game. With that being said, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness could provide a foundation for X-Men’s future as a character in the MCU.

Doctor Stephen Strange Will Be The New Avengers Leader

After whatever happened in 2019’s released film, Avengers: Endgame, fans are highly waiting to see the next leader of the team Avengers. But now that Tony Stark and Steve Rogers are no longer a part of the team, it becomes obvious that who else could lead the Avengers.

Moreover, there have been quite some hints about why Doctor Strange is the most eligible leader for the MCU that has been echoed loud in Marvel’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. Well, don’t worry; we are not going to echo any spoiler regarding this. But as far as the fan’s theories and comments on social media are concerned, Doctor Strange is expected to become the new leader of the team Avengers.

A Different Doctor Strange Will Appear

After Disney+ shows like Loki, Hawkeye, and WandaVision, Marvel’s What If…? has been the most loved MCU show of this year. With that being said, out of all the episodes, What If…? Doctor Strange Lost His Heart? was something that really intrigued all the fans around the globe. The episode highlighted a dark Doctor Strange who has been struggling with his battles and ended up becoming a different version of the Sorcerer Supreme. With that being said, fans are highly anticipating Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness to echo a part of the What If…?‘s story. While it’d make the character much stronger, it’d also help shape Doctor Strange’s role in the MCU Phase 4.

Now to figure out whether these theories are going to become true or not, we all have to wait for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness to release on May 6, 2022.
