In the shard we see a reflection of Deadpool. This is a pretty clear image, and you can see it on the left hand center top of the poster. This is the big one, kid! Yep, along with the trailer that seemed to reveal Patrick Stewart would be joining the MCU as Charles Xavier, it looks like we’ve got our first official look at Deadpool. So is this James Spader’s killer cyber-villain? Or is it one of the new Ultron-looking robots from the trailer? We’ll have to wait and see. What makes this egg more intriguing though is the fact that the new trailer shows Ultron-esque robots taking Strange to an intimidating new location. Within it there’s a robotic face that looks a lot like Ultron. In the midst of the mirror breaking chaos, near the right hand center of the poster we can see a large gleaming piece of mirror. It looks a lot like that creepy monster version of Strange who makes a quick appearance at the end of the trailer. Under the left hand side of Strange’s flowing Cloak of Levitation you can see a sharp shard, which shows a face with a large cut above its eye.
We don’t have an official name for the monstrous-potentially undead-version of Doctor Strange that appeared most clearly in the broadcast Super Bowl TV spot yet. It’s unclear here if this is a statue of him or a particularly detailed photo, but either way he’s there looking strong. He has lived and worked with Doctor Strange in the comics, and in the trailer seems to be living in Kamar-Taj. In the comics Rintrah is an interdimensional magical being from the planet R’Vaal. Thanks to toy releases and the new trailer we can probably assume this is Rintrah. On the left hand side just under that monstrous eye there’s the head of a Minotaur. We’ve now even glimpsed the iconic shield in a recent Multiverse of Madness trailer. Strange and Captain Carter are already connected thanks to the events of that series, so this would make a lot of sense. This seems to hint that theory was right. Captain Carter’s shield played a huge part in What If…? and we had a feeling we might see it and her in the Multiverse of Madness. Captain Carter’s Shield Marvel Studiosĭown in the right hand corner this is one of the most obvious Easter eggs. We know it’s not normal Stephen as he has white stripes in his hair and his mustache doesn’t connect to his-in his universe-non-existent beard! There are also multiple Defender Stranges across the poster. You can see him in the piece of mirror just to the left of Stephen’s head. You might know that name from the Marvel Netflix shows, but in the original lineup they consisted of Strange, Namor, Hulk, and the Silver Surfer.
And his moniker-confirmed by an action figure-means in his world he was likely part of the comic book team known as the Defenders. The ponytailed alt-universe Strange will likely be from a different multiverse. This one shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise as we’d already spotted Defender Strange in the earlier trailer. There’s also a couple of Darkhold’s and Strange’s broken watch! We also see an eye that looks like it belongs to Shuma-Gorath/Gargantos. That makes us think that Sam Raimi’s horror chops are going to be putting our faves through hell. It’s interesting to note that at least one version of each character is screaming. That makes sense as we’re about to embark on a multiversal journey, so we could potentially meet more than one version of each. We’re beginning with the most recognizable here: There are multiple versions of Strange, Wanda, Wong, Baron Mordo, Christine Palmer, and America Chavez throughout the shattered mirror. Read to the bottom of the piece to discover our poster key so that you can explore our finds! Marvel Studios 1. Organized from most clear and likely to most blurry and out there, this piece will dig into all the shadowy figures and faces that appear on the poster and what they could mean for the movie! But there’s more than meets the eye! After much zooming in and lots of late night exploring and comic book excavating, we’re here to talk about all the hidden Easter eggs. That aspect makes a lot of sense as we’ve seen Strange in his mirror universe, as well as mirrors as a representation of the multiverse before. The epic one sheet shows Strange in the midst of a shattering mirror.
While we’ll be digging into that elsewhere, this piece is all about the poster released alongside it. Thanks to the powerful magic of organized sports we have a new Doctor Strange trailer.
