A new image from the upcomingMarvelsequel,Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, sees familiar faces Dr. Stephen Strange and Wong teaming up with superhero newcomer America Chavez, played by Xochitl Gomez.Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnesswill further expand on the multiversal shenanigans, which began with the likes ofLokiandSpider-Man: No Way Home, forcing Strange to make new allies as he faces down a mysterious adversary.
Thanks to the release of the latest trailer,which made waves during last weekend’s Super Bowl, we now have a much better idea of what to expect when Doctor Strange further unleashes the multiverse on the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It seems that Doctor Strange will go too far this time, with the newest footage full to the brim of degrading universes and all manner of variants and potential villains.
In his quest to put things right (a task that is quickly becoming a habit for Doctor Strange), The Master of the Mystic Arts will turn tothe new character America Chavez AKA Miss America, a teenager with the ability to travel between dimensions. Something which will come in extremely handy when tackling the madness of the multiverse.
This latest image, which comes exclusively fromEmpire, gives us a good look atThe Baby-Sitters Clubstar Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez. Wearing her recognizable denim jacket, complete with the star symbol on the back (Chavez can open star-shaped portals to other dimensions), the image is no doubt a glimpse at one of many sequences featuring Strange, Wong, and Chavez, with the trio wondering what on earth they should do next as the multiverse crumbles around them.

A newly released poster forDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnesshas teased further cameos, including the likes ofWhat If…?character Captain Carter, the Marvel Zombies, and,in a moment that would surely have audiences cheering, Deadpool. The sheer level of cameos that could be on display has since been confirmed byDeadpoolcreator Rob Liefeld who said, ““But yeah, Doctor Strange… to answer that other question and, you know, whatever they’re testing. I kind of feel like each… result of each test that’s being reported in the press is ‘We need to put more cool shit in that movie.’”
