The first TV promo for Spider-Man: No Way Home has been published; and it shows Doctor Strange’s (Benedict Cumberbatch) mirror realm in greater detail.
The marketing for Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures Entertainment’s impending cooperation has begun to ramp up. With only a month and a half till the blockbuster hits theatres, this makes sense. A new promo shot has been released to keep fans engaged as they wait for the second and most likely final trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home.
The first trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home was published in late August 2021, and it’s been more than two months since then. And the video didn’t disappoint after months of anticipation, neatly laying out the idea of the impending Jon Watts-directed threequel. The next film, which picks up after the events of Spider-Man: Far From Home; deals with the consequences of Peter Parker’s (Tom Holland) secret superhero identity being discovered.
Desperate for assistance, he approaches Doctor Strange; who jumps at the chance but activating the altered spell unwittingly worsens their situation by forcing them to deal with the universe. Marvel Studios and Sony are speeding up their marketing efforts for Spider-Man: No Way Home as the release date approaches; as seen by the release of the first TV spot for the film.
The video largely contains material that has already been broadcast; although it does include a longer look of Spider-Man and Doctor Strange entering the Mirror Dimension. Below is a clip from @sebbazz on Twitter:
Mirror Dimension’s Use In No Way Home Is Unknown
The Mirror Dimension originally debuted in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the first Doctor Strange film. It’s a parallel dimension where magical practitioners can conduct sorcery without having any negative consequences in the actual world. Doctor Strange appears to have opened it himself in the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer so that he and Spider-Man can travel there.
The explanation for this is unknown, however, it could be related to the film’s multiversal elements. With the Sinister Six making an appearance in the MCU, it’s not out of the realm of possibilities that the future Sorcerer Supreme tries to imprison the villains in the Mirror Dimension; until they figure out how to deal with the situation.
Before the first official poster for Spider-Man: No Way Home was released, this Spider-Man: No Way Home promo video surfaced online. Given these details, it’s safe to infer that the much-anticipated second trailer will be released online soon. This fits the timeline because the threequel is only a matter of time away from going into production. What’s interesting is how much information Marvel Studios and Sony are willing to share in their trailers.
Several speculations regarding the film have persisted, including appearances by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. Both actors are largely expected to reprise their individual Spider-Man roles, which makes sense given the film’s multiverse plot.
Kevin Feige, on the other hand, cautioned Marvel fans to temper their expectations in case some of the rumours prove to be false.
