Marvel fans may be getting sick of the constant leaks. Most of Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) had found its way to the internet long before fans got a chance to see it in theaters. The next victim of Marvel’s security failure to stem the tide of leaks is Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, set for theatrical release on May 6, 2022. Rumors have been circling of cameos that could compare to Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire showing up in No Way Home alongside Tom Holland’s Peter Parker/Spider-Man. And one Marvel Comic artist, Rob Liefeld, has seen the film and was willing to talk about it in a recent interview.
Rob Liefeld is best known for creating Wade Wilson/Deadpool in New Mutants #98 (1983). Though most fans only give him credit for coming up with Deadpool’s design and name, which he actually copied from DC Comic’s Slade Wilson/Deathstroke. Much of what is actually iconic about Deadpool’s character, such as his humor which earned him the nickname of Merc with a Mouth, and his long tradition of smashing through fourth walls, were created by later artists who worked on the character like Joe Kelly and Pete Woods.
But it looks like Marvel Studios are still giving him screenings of upcoming Marvel Phase Four films. He recently appeared on The Big Thingwith Kristian Harloff. When asked if Tom Cruise will be appearing as a variant of Tony Stark/Iron Man – replacing Robert Downey Jr. – or if Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic would show up. Rob Liefeld answered with:
“I think it’s safe to say some of the stuff, you just said that’s out there, it’s happening. It’s in, it’s been seen… And so dude, give us lots of that.”
He specifically confirmed some of the rumors surrounding cameos from the 20th Century Fox Marvels characters like Hugh Jackman (Logan/Wolverine),Hallee Berry (Ororo Munroe/Storm) Sir. Patrick Stewart (Charles Xavier/Professor X) and Ian McKellen (Erik Lehnsherr?Magneto). He told Kristian Harloff:
“I know on some level, some of it is already there. I have just revoked every – every one of my passes just got revoked.”
