New Wolverine in MCU's Doctor Strange 2? - Here is what we know
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,February 23 2022]
As the release date for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness approaches, new rumours suggest that, after gaining the rights to use the X-Men back in 2019, the studio is expected to introduce the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s first mutant in this film.
A new leak has claimed that among the characters on display in the Multiverse of Madness is X-Men's Wolverine. Actor Hugh Jackman played the character for two decades starting with X-Men (2000) and right up to Logan (2017). However, if reports are to be true, the Wolverine in the Doctor Strange sequel will be played a new actor.
Other leaks and rumours have claimed the presence of several other stars in the film, most notably Tom Cruise playing a version of Iron Man, Ryan Reynolds reprising his role as Deadpool, and John Krasinski introducing a new version of Mr Fantastic.
The second instalment of Doctor Stange will back Benedict Cumberbatch as the titular character alongside Elizabeth Olsen reprising her role as Wanda Maximoff, Benedict Wong as Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo, and Rachel McAdams as Dr. Christine Porter. The film deals with the aftermath of Doctor Strange's (Benedict Cumberbatch) multiverse-fracturing spell from Spider-Man: No Way Home.
We will see Wolverine in #DoctorStrangeInTheMultiverseOfMadness but it definitely won’t be Hugh Jackman.
