What's most interesting about this action is that the multiverse itself frowns on it. As we learn in the third act of "Multiverse of Madness," they don't even need to be alive. Yes, "into." Dream-walking is, for all intents and purposes, a fancy way of saying "possessing." An individual who dream-walks has access to their parallel version's life and whatever skill sets they do or do not possess. Both projects focus on a governing body policing a character's nature (in "Loki" it's the TVA, in "Multiverse of Madness," the Illuminati), and the ensuing refutation having massive (and even violent) consequences. Loki's attempts to change his stripes and amend his character stem from the discovery of these variants and mirror a major plot point of "Multiverse of Madness." Stephen Strange is similarly deemed a threat to the multiverse by Earth 838's Illuminati, and Strange's efforts to challenge their conclusion drive the film towards its bonkers third act. Loki (Tom Hiddleston), as it turns out, has many variants, all of whom cause chaos. That show, created and largely written by "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" scribe Michael Waldron, was concerned with and introduced the concept of "variants." They are deviations from the Sacred Timeline, policed by the Time Variance Authority, that create alternate timelines through their actions. In many ways, "Multiverse of Madness" is a thematic continuation of 2021's "Loki." The incursion-ruined Earth? That's the malice and hunger one. More importantly, the Ancient One's caution offers "Multiverse of Madness" writer Michael Waldron a blueprint for the worlds his film will visit.
Almost any story involving parallel worlds will pass through him in some way, shape, or form. This is notable for two reasons: For one, it makes "Doctor Strange," as a movie, the foundation of Marvel's multiversal exploits. The multiverse is real and filled with the sorts of worlds the Ancient One warned of. and waiting." It doesn't humble Stephen whatsoever, but it does prove prescient. Dark places where powers older than time lie ravenous. In 2016's "Doctor Strange,"' the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) offered this humbling thought and warning to Stephen: "This universe is only one of an infinite number. In the film, Strange encounters the Illuminati on Earth-838, led by X-Men's Professor Charles Xavier, portrayed by Patrick Stewart, who starred opposite McKellen's Magneto in the X-Men films.Before the multiverse became mad, it was a vague and ominous threat. Released in 2022, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness saw Benedict Cumberbatch's Master of the Mystic Arts travel across the multiverse to protect America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) from the wrath of Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch. "If I had a daughter, I’d hope she’d be like Elizabeth," he said. In Marvel Comics, Magneto is Scarlet Witch's mutant father. While it's unknown if McKellen will ever join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he addressed the possibility in May 2022 by saying he was ready to team up with Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch. A younger version of the character was portrayed by Michael Fassbender in 2011's X-Men: First Class. Magneto/Erik Lehnsherr was famously portrayed by Sir Ian McKellen in Fox's X-Men film franchise, first appearing in 2000's X-Men.
