If you saw Spider-Man: No Way Home and you stuck around for the entire credits roll, you've already seen this first look at Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. And if you haven't seen Spidey's latest adventure, know only that this trailer doesn't spoil anything.

What's cool about this is now we can watch it repeatedly, with no limitations, and freeze-frame as we please. There's plenty to pore over, too. Multiverse promises to carry the Marvel Cinematic Universe into some of the strangest (no pun intended) and most norm-breaking storytelling spaces to date. Yes, that includes an apparent crossover of the animated Disney+ What If... stories into the live-action space.

There's plenty to talk about here, but that's what social media is for. Just soak in the madness of the multiverse and keep those hype levels in check ahead of our multi-month wait until the good Doctor (and the bad Doctor!!) emerges.
