Marvel fans are hoping that a lot of loose ends will be tied up in the MCU in Doctor Strange 3, whenever that might be released.
We know that a third Doctor Strange movie in the MCU is inevitable but at the time of writing, Marvel and Disney have not formally announced the next instalment starring the former Sorcerer Supreme, that title now belongs to Wong.
Check out the Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer below!

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness left us quite the teaser with its post-credit scene which is yet to be explored further in the MCU. Just a heads up, I am about to go into spoilers for that Marvel movie, so you have been warned.
During that scene in question, after gaining the third eye, which is a manifestation of the Eye of Agamotto, we’re introduced to Clea, played by Charlize Theron, a sorceress of the Dark Dimension.
Doctor Strange and Clea by pivotal roles in the Marvel comics story ‘Time Runs Out’ and will likely play a major role in Avengers: Secret Wars in 2027 or even before that in 2026 with Avengers: Doomsday for MCU Phase 6.
“Doctor Strange 3 should release before Avengers: Doomsday,” posted TheWingger, kicking off the discussion on the Reddit thread. “Doctor Strange and Clea (The Black Priests) are very important in the ‘Time Runs Out’ storyline which will most likely be adapted in Doomsday.”
The Redditor lists a checklist of what they believe should be addressed in upcoming MCU movies such as how to stop the incursion, why is the multiverse collapsing, where’s Scarlet Witch, does Doctor Strange know about the TVA, and more.
“Doing a proper ‘Time Runs Out’ story would help Doomsday and Secret Wars flow nicely,” replied YMHGreenBan. “I think it would make sense to have Galactus/Celestials/Doom/Incursions set things up in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.”
“Black Priests and Ivory Kings/Beyonders race to stop the incursions in Doctor Strange 3, and then Doomsday starts with the final incursion and ends with the 8-year jump and Doctor Doom ruling Battleworld,” they continued.
“I'm sceptical that they'll release Doctor Strange 3 since there's no news or leaks and Marvel's schedule is already set,” said SaigoNoMetal. “DS3 makes more sense than a Blade movie. It would help explain a lot of confusion and provide a cliffhanger for Doomsday. Apparently, this cliffhanger will happen in The Fantastic Four.”
“I don’t think the MCU is going to do the Beyonder or Beyonders anymore. I think Quatumania was setting up Kang to go through the machine and come back with powers from Beyond,” AdditionalInitial727 explained. “With no Kang, that’s scratched.”
“In my opinion, any teaser in a post-credit scene needs to be followed up on in some manner within two years or three years. Otherwise, don't bother,” exclaimed Carteeg_Struve, possibly referring to the post-credit scene of Multiverse of Madness.
Hopefully, Marvel and Disney will announce Doctor Strange 3 and put us all out of our misery once and for all in the coming months.
