    I (like everyone) love Denzel, but I hope he isn’t Dormammu.

    Specifically because it ruins my, possibly outlandish, fan theory. Cumberbatch did the motion capture for Dormammu in the first film. I always thought it would be fun if Dormammu turned out to be a Doctor Strange variant. In What If we meet a much darker Doctor Strange variant. In Multiverse of Madness we meet a number of variants, all of whom also make dark choices. For me the logical conclusion is that eventually Strange has to battle the darkest variant, Dormammu.

    Obviously however I welcome Denzmammu if that’s the case.

        That’s true. Although if it’s a different-actor variant I think it’s less impactful, since it’s less obviously Strange vs Strange.

        Although there isn’t a rule against two Dormammu.

        Also (and this is my hope) Denzel could play a different character, and Dormammu is just a fake/placeholder for his real role (which could still be Dormammu-esque.)

            And they could bring back Kaecilius, and Wanda, and her Kids. Because they’re family. And Doctor Strange knows family.
