Fans are convinced they saw Tom Cruise in Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness trailer; did you spot him?

While it is no secret that Marvel Studios initially wanted actor Tom Cruise to play the role of Iron Man in the 2008 movie, the actor turned the role which led Robert Downey Jr. to take it on and the rest is movie history.

In the new trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, there is a big fight scene where both Doctor Strange and the Scarlet Witch are fighting a golden armored figure. Now many fans are convinced that it is his Superior Iron Man and that actor Tom Cruise is playing the role.

Superior Iron Man is Tony Stark from a different universe but unlike our Iron Man, he is evil and wants to take over the world.

Many fans were quick to notice the similarities with Superior Iron Man both the fighting style and battle suit we saw in the trailer.

This along with the fact that an alleged leak from the set of the movie in which Tom Crusie was seen wearing a green suit has only fueled the theory further, so let's take a look at what fans are saying.

Hey, Superior Iron Man is trending.
I have no inside information but when @ycinar and I created Tony’s Endo-Sym armor, it was designed to glow red/orange when he was angry. #DoctorStrange #MultiverseOfMadness pic.twitter.com/mZe7vk2tNG

I reckon this is Tom Cruise as a ‘Superior Iron Man’ variant and member of Professor X’s Illuminati that Doctor Strange is being taken to for trial. Notice those are iron man/ultron-esque robots 🤔#DoctorStrange #MultiverseOfMadness #DoctorStrange2 pic.twitter.com/ySa1RHnnYN

The fact that Charles Xavier is in the movie which in turn introduces The X-Men including Deadpool into the MCU, it will be interesting to see how this theory pans out. After what Marvel did with Spider-Man : No Way Home which brought back Toby Macguire and Andrew Garfield to play Spider-Man alongside Tom Holland anything is possible.

Fans will have to wait till the movie comes out to see which theories end up being true, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will hit the big screen on May 6, 2022
