Elizabeth Olsen has revea🌠led that Doctor Strange 2 is shaping up to be a spooky installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

"It's a very scary movie," she said in a Q&A at the New York Film Academy (H/T ). "It's like old Sam Raimi. They're trying to create the scariest ൲Marvel movie."

It's not a huge surprise that the sequel might be scary, as director Raimi is probably best known for his work in the horror genre with The Evil Dead movies – and the Spider-Man trilogy starring Tobey Maguire. Olsen has also already hinted that the sequel will have a bit of fear fac♑tor, explaining: "It's a bonkers movie, they're definite🏅ly go🌟ing for that horror show vibe."

The plot of Doctor Strange 2 is being kept tightly under wraps, but from the official title – Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness – it's easy to guess that it will involve multiple timelines and realities. Writer Michael Waldron, who is also the showrunner of Loki, recently said the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:sequel got scarier once Raimi💦 joined t♍he project: "I'm glad that there was the chance to maybe push🐽 it in a slightly scarier direction, just because Sam does tha꧂t so well."

Spoilers ahead for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Loki finale, which saw the multiverse blow wide open when Sylvie killed Jonathan Majors' character He Who Remains (who probably isn't actually 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kang the Conqueror, but rather Immortus) and 🌜splintered the Sacr👍ed Timeline once and for all.

It seems the fallout of this decision will have a huge impact on the MCU going forward, most likely beginning with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man 3, AKA Spider-Man: No Way Home. The threequel is heavily reported to involve a multiverse element, with Maguire and Andre♎w Garfield said to be reꦆprising their roles as their respective versions of Peter Parker, 澳🌄洲幸运5开奖号💜码历史查询:Jamie Foxx reportedly returning as Electro, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Alfred Mo🦋lina confirming he'll be back as ꦓDoc Ock.

Then there's What If…?, the animated series exploring alternate versions of familiar Marvel stories. Tom Hiddleston said the show 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:"sets up a whole bunch of stuff in the MC෴U," so expect it to be more important than it may seem when the first episode arrives to Disney Plus this August 11.

Interestingly enough, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hiddleston🌸 is reportedly expected to appear in Doctor Strange 2. With Loki's magic, Wanda's reality-bending abilities, and Stephen Strange's own powers, it seems the sequel is shaping up to be a vღery wild ride.

We'll have to wait a while to find out what exactly happens in Doctor Strange 2, as the sequel isn’t due out until March 25, 2022. Until then, check out how to watch 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel movies in order to get up to speed on the MCU, and find the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Disney Plus prices and deals.
