10 Multiversal Marvel Variants The MCU Should Explore

from Cinema Hot Takes Hosted by Author Adidas Wilson

The episode outlines how the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is leveraging the concept of the multiverse to significantly expand its narrative possibilities. The primary focus is on proposing ten specific "multiversal variant concepts," which are alternate versions of iconic heroes and villains—such as Iron Man as Sorcerer Supreme or Thanos as a hero—that the MCU should explore. The episode explains that introducing these variants provides opportunities for fresh storytelling, enhanced character development, and new thematic exploration across various MCU projects like What If...? and major crossover films like Avengers: Secret Wars. Ultimately, the document asserts that the multiverse and these reimagined characters are the MCU's greatest assets for maintaining creative momentum and engaging audiences.
