The Marvel Cinematic Universe has featured aliens, robots, and even zombies, but it never dipped into the world of dinosaurs. However, it looks like prehistoric creatures could enter the MCU via Doctor Strange 2thanks to a new magazine cover filled with Easter eggs.
New ‘Doctor Strange 2’ Magazine Cover Features a Dinosaur
The next issue of Empire will focus on strange doctor sequel, and one of the images is a classic Marvel magazine cover. It features Doctor Strange in the center, and around it are several smaller images that tease the upcoming MCU movie. And one of the Easter eggs on the cover of Empire is an image of a dinosaur, leading fans to believe that Savage Land is part of Doctor Strange 2.
The Savage Land is a prehistoric tropical location hidden in Antarctica in the comics. It’s a place where dinosaurs roam and where superheroes, especially the X-Men, often visit.
After seeing the trailer, fans first speculated that Doctor Strange 2 would introduce dinosaurs to the MCU via the Savage Land. The video features Doctor Strange and America Chavez falling through a forest with dinosaurs hiding in the background. So now, with the latest issue of Empire, it’s clear that the MCU now has dinosaurs. However, they likely exist in a different universe.
Benedict Cumberbatch Compares ‘Doctor Strange 2’ To Another MCU Movie
Speaking with Empire about Doctor Strange 2Benedict Cumberbatch has made a bold prediction about the next MCU movie.
“It’s a big, big movie,” the actor teased. “It’s going to be an absolute riot. And if he succeeds with the level of ambition he has, we will have Spidey-level success. Here, I’m going to plant my flag in the sand.
Fans last saw Doctor Strange in Spider-Man: No Coming Home, which featured him with Peter Parker accidentally tearing the multiverse apart. The events of this film lead directly to the strange doctor sequel as the wizard deals with the consequences of messing with the multiverse. It is therefore not surprising that Doctor Strange 2 could potentially perform at the same level as the third Spider Man movie.
More, Doctor Strange 2 is unquestionably ambitious given that it features dinosaurs in the MCU.
