The Multiverse Unveiled
But wait, before we dive deeper into the designs, let’s recap what Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is all about. In Marvel Studio’s own words: “To restore a world where everything is changing, Strange seeks help from his ally Wong, the Sorcerer Supreme, and the Avengers’ most powerful Scarlet Witch, Wanda. But a terrible threat looms over humanity and the entire universe that no longer can be done by their power alone. Even more surprising, the greatest threat in the universe looks exactly like Doctor Strange.”
Directed by the legendary Sam Raimi and starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, this cinematic masterpiece promises to be a mind-bending thrill ride. Alongside him, a star-studded cast including Benedict Wong as Wong, Rachel McAdams as Christine Palmer, Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/ Scarlet Witch, Patrick Stewart as Professor Charles Xavier, Xochitl Gomez plays America Chavez, and Chiwetel Ejiofor plays Baron Mordo. It’s a lineup to die for! You can catch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness exclusively on Disney+, Blu Ray, and digital download.
John Krasinski’s Fantastic Evolution
Now, let’s get back to our elastic friend, Mr. Fantastic himself, John Krasinski. As it turns out, his costume underwent quite the transformation before settling into the sleek look we witnessed in the movie. Concept art featured in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness – The Art of the Movie, as reported by The Direct, reveals the evolution of Reed’s iconic blue costume, complete with the distinctive “4” emblem on his chest.
Each version of the suit in the images carries a unique twist, making them instantly recognizable to fans. But what sets them apart are the subtle variations in shades and accents. One particular design stands out with striking white boots and gloves, reminiscent of Mr. Fantastic’s earliest comic appearances.
The Multiverse of Marvel Heroes
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, released in May 2022, brought together a league of classic Marvel superheroes in a secretive multiversal order called the Illuminati. Each actor portraying an Illuminati member had a special connection with Marvel’s film and television history, some reprising roles that were previously off-limits to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, thanks to the historic Fox-Disney merger.
In John Krasinski’s case, he had never stepped into the shoes of Mr. Fantastic before. However, he had long been a fan-favorite choice to bring this classic character to life in the MCU. Taking on the role was his way of tipping his hat to the loyal fans who championed his casting. But hold onto your stretchy pants; there’s no confirmation yet that he’ll reprise the role of Reed Richards in future projects.
Fantastic Four: The Marvel Saga Continues
The Fantastic Four, a beloved family of superheroes and one of Marvel’s original creations, are making their grand entrance into the MCU. A feature film dedicated to these iconic heroes is officially in the works, and the search for the perfect Mr. Fantastic, alongside Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm, is in full swing.
While Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is currently streaming on Disney+, fans of the Fantastic Four won’t have to wait too long. Mark your calendars for May 2, 2025, as that’s when the Fantastic Four will grace the big screen once again, ushering in a new era of marvel-ous adventures.
Prepare yourselves for a wild ride through the multiverse, Marvel fans, because the future is looking fantastic, and it’s got a touch of John Krasinski’s charm!
