Billed as the MCU’s first true horror film from its original announcement, filmmaking legend Sam Raimi took the reigns of the mind-bending adventure and delivered fans with just that; a terrifying cinematic experience that truly justice the madness in the multiverse.
With Wanda having a massive role, alongside MCU veteran Wong and newcomer America Chavez, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness was truly an unforgettable, chaotic, and fascinating adventure that sports twists, turns, and jumpscares.

One of the big draws of the film, and something that Raimi, writer Michale Waldron, and everyone involved was sure to make good on, was the incredible part that the multiverse would play in the characters that would be introduced over the course of the film.
With the Illuminati long-rumored to appear, Marvel fans were given one of the coolest MCU moments of 2022; only to then have it ripped away from them in subversive Sam Raimi fashion.
