Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is already heavily hinting at the inclusion of Patrick Stewart’s Professor X in its latest trailer. That seems to have set off a chain reaction of wild fan theories, including Tom Cruise as Iron Man and Ryan Reynolds returning as Deadpool.
During the Big Game trailer, a few flying figures were glimpsed swooping down. One, according to some on social media, bears a striking resemblance to Tom Cruise as the comic book character ‘Superior’ Iron Man. Not convinced? Take a look for yourself.
I reckon this is Tom Cruise as a ‘Superior Iron Man’ variant and member of Professor X’s Illuminati that Doctor Strange is being taken to for trial. Notice those are iron man/ultron-esque robots 🤔#DoctorStrange #MultiverseOfMadness #DoctorStrange2 pic.twitter.com/ySa1RHnnYNFebruary 14, 2022

Tom Cruise playing Iron Man has been one of those odd rumor mill whispers that haven’t quite gone away, and the appearance of Ultron bots accompanying a handcuffed Doctor Strange towards the Illuminati group (which could also include Reed Richards) does little to dispel that theory.
It doesn’t end there. In the newly-released Multiverse of Madness poster, a certain Merc with a Mouth has supposedly been spotted in a glass fragment, just above Wong’s eye. This feels a little less conclusive and maybe a trick of the eye, but this is what Marvel has reduced us to at this point. Blame Kevin Feige.
There’s also a more likely variant present in The Multiverse of Madness: Captain Marvel’s Maria Rambeau (Lashana Lynch) as a Captain Marvel variant.
“All the amazing analysis & study of this poster makes me very happy,” Disney’s president of marketing, Asad Ayaz, said on Twitter (opens in new tab).

Deadpool 3 is already in the works, with Kevin Feige confirming it’s set to be R-Rated. It would also be very on-brand for Ryan Reynolds’ masked mercenary to debut in low-key fashion in a poster for another movie. So watch this space.
