It also could mean that the integration or a reboot of previously non-MCU superhero teams like the X-Men and Fantastic 4 is imminent, particularly after cameos from Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and Mr. Fantastic (John Krasinski). (A MCU “Fantastic Four” is officially in development, although it recently lost “Spider-Man” director Jon Watts.) Created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, Clea was introduced in “Strange Tales #126" (1964). She spent her early years as a captive of Dormammu and his sister Umar, her mother. Before Theron was revealed in the role, there had been fan speculation that either “Harry Potter” alum Emma Watson or “Strange” co-star Rachel McAdams (who plays Dr. Christine Palmer in the film) would take on the iconic part. For less spoiler-y “Strange” content check out our review and a report from the world premiere on the movie’s connections to “WandaVision.” As established earlier in the film, an incursion is a breach in reality in which parallel universes collide. The scene features the good doctor (Benedict Cumberbatch) walking down a New York City street before a disembodied voice calls out his name.

Benedict Cumberbatch returns as the powerful sorcerer, and Rachel McAdams is back as well, as Strange's ex-girlfriend Dr. Christine Palmer. However, in this ...

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness finds its protagonist and antagonist caught at a crossroads in terms of what they'll become.

Strange is able to break out of the past by letting someone else hold the knife, trusting his body to a Variant version of Christine Palmer, while Dreamwalking in his deceased Variant, and allowing America Chavez (Xochtil Gomez) to be the one to break Wanda from her delusion that her children would understand what she’s become. He’s not a surgeon, he’s not the Sorcerer Supreme, he’s not the love of Christine’s life, and he’s not even an Avenger since a new team was never formed. There will surely be plenty of discussions in the years to come about Wanda’s turn as the Scarlet Witch in Multiverse of Madness, and how the film utilizes her as an antagonist after claiming she set things right in the aftermath of WandaVision. But I think it’s fair to challenge just how right she set them. She brings Wundagore Mountain down onto herself, destroying every version of the Darkhold in the process, and seemingly meeting her demise. While Wanda’s reveal as the big bad in Multiverse of Madness may come sooner than expected, WandaVision clearly established that was where she was headed, her moral flaws only exacerbated by her use of dark magic. In Multiverse of Madness, we see other variants of Stephen Strange, who, even if they aren’t consumed with grief are unable to let go, to do as Christine tells Strange at her wedding, and let someone else hold the knife. With the MCU’s Phase 4, so far, built around characters finding their roles and purpose in a world irrevocably changed by Thanos, it feels appropriate that Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness finds its central protagonist and antagonist caught at a crossroads in terms of what they’ll become and what roles are out there for them. And rather than surrender herself for the crimes she committed, she flies off. Doctor Strange and Wanda in this film both provide rather sobering looks at individuals who saved the world, but still aren’t granted more time with the people they need most in their lives. HYDRA certainly wasn’t the Kamar-Taj, but it did provide her with tools to fight back against her fears and create fear in others. Within that episode, Christine Palmer dies, and despite using the time stone to try to save her, and failing again and again, her death is an absolute point. No, that’s not a line from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, though it very well could be.
