After months of speculation, it seems we finally know that Patrick Stewart’s Professor X will play an important role in the latest Doctor Strange movie. When Strange’s former ally Baron Mordo cuffs Strange and leads him into a mysterious room, he also introduces Stephen to the Illuminati.

A wrinkled hand appears on what appears to be a high-tech wheelchair. This image is accompanied by Stewart’s voice in the familiar Charles Xavier cadence he’s been doing since his first X-Men movie in 2000. Of course, we don’t get a look at his face, and we don’t know what his role will be yet, but this does seem to confirm that he’s in the movie and that Doctor Strange, in the Multiverse of MadnessThe X-Men will be introduced to the MCU, in a more or less literal sense.

That’s not the only tease we get in this trailer either. We also see a Captain America-style shield emblazoned with the Union Jack, which likely belongs to Captain Peggy Carter, who became the first Avenger in Marvel’s animated What if …? episode “What if… Captain Carter Were the First Avenger?”

Marvel may have more to surprise us than we know, given all that was revealed in the trailer. Doctor Strange, in the Multiverse of Madness, but we’ll have to wait until the movie releases next week to see what they are.
