I think Disney/Marvel needs to have a "branch off" studio so that they can do the darker and more heavy stuff without worrying about their false illusions of tarnishing the mouse ears..

I need Mephisto and Galactus in the next three years!

[@lordofninjas1]

Probably won't happen that quickly. Mephisto, maybe, depending on what's coming up that Marvel hasn't announced yet and everything, and there's a couple places he could potentially maybe appear. Galactus though, I doubt he'll show up in the next 3 years (that being 2025) we already have through 2023 announced, and we have enough confirmed to fill out at least another year, so 2024, and Marvel seems to be focusing on Kang being the villain for the next few Phases, so I'm not expecting Galactus until probably Phase 7 or so, meaning roughly around 2030 or so, so about 8-10 years. Not to mention Galactus doesn't really seem to fit in the stories Marvel's wanting to tell for the foreseeable future.

[@onlypencil]

The way theyre going to introduce mutants is by stating that a scarlet witch from another universe has already said "no more mutants" which created the MCU without mutants. Doctor strange 2 will reverse that scarlet witchs spell and will bring back the mutants. That will all be explained by Profressor X. This would be the best way that makes sense using the comic book source material.

Probably The dopest villain introduction fr. I can imagine him showing his true form and never touches the ground just sort of floats, glides through a room while maniacally explaining a deal with the devil 🤘 like any time he's on screen, there's always an uneasy, angsty feeling like what being in a room with Ted bundy post incarceration must have felt like, but he wasn't handcuffed and was carrying a knife the whole time

[@otrenigmaandy7443]

I, being a Christian, (honestly not a good representation of what I should be) don’t think it’s a bad thing to have the Mephisto character on screen and represented the way he was in the comics, Christians are like everybody else in the sense that we all know it’s by definition a fantasy movie, like all movies, and it’s obvious that Mephisto is the bad guy, universally all children [who they are protecting] know that we don’t want to be bad guy in life, bad guy bad and bad guy lose almost always. No different than David and Goliath (1st Samuel 15-20: Bible)(yes I had to look it up) so we can differentiate (some of us). The Christians who don’t want to see Mephisto on big screen are the same ones who don’t understand the equality of sin. Sorry, didn’t mean to write a paragraph. Have a blessed one you guys, and Rob. Love the channel (and CE)

[@rileyribble6733]

[@djprincegrandmasteryrjdalo2905]

Yeah but you guys can’t even begin to comprehend the level of the trail and talk to the city that Christians would release if they ever saw something like this in a Disney movie, and you guys can’t look past that. That is the reality and that will happen. Not only that but I could see most Christian saying that Disney trending Dr. Nate people into being evil or whatever I don’t know how many before you probably tell me I don’t know what the hell I’m talking about trust me I do, I have people in my family who are very radically Christian come in if I want to show something like this to them that’s the first thing they’re going to think you’re not even gonna think oh well you know techno they’re gonna straight up think that Disney’s Incahoots with the illuminati or whatever I’m just letting you know that that’s gonna happen… Regardless of what you think

[@yeetmcskeet1612]

I think if they're going to introduce Mephisto into the MCU I agree what you said I don't think it'd be right in your face. I think they'd lighten him up and make him more of a comedic swindler. That'd be the only way it'd work.

Quick incomplete theory. What if he made a deal with Sylvie so that she would get the satisfaction of killing the one who screwed up her life (immortus), but in turn Mephisto knew that it would cause a multiversal war which would cause a lot of death and therefore, many souls to come to his realm. Because think about it, for us it kinda seemed like Sylvie's idea of someone/something being behind the Alioth being protected came essentially out of nowhere. Even tho it was kinda like a guess, it would be just like Mephisto to be very vague and very devious.

I’m sticking to my theory that The Other, who was the stand in for Mephisto in infinity war was possessed by Chthon. The Red Skull being on Vormir never really made sense, yes, I know they explained it but it sounded like a hard stretch to have a cameo. Mephisto disguised as Red Skull would almost work. The whole thing about vormir needs better explaining IMO.

[@avgnfandon2]

Eh it wasn’t that hard to believe that’s what happened to Red Skull

[@Loreweavver]

I’m cool with the idea that he got teleported by the space stone. The weird part is that now he’s an ethereal ghost person with supernatural awareness. Meanwhile a similar situation with Caroll Danvers gives her Superman powers. There’s something fishy going on that seems a lot like divine intervention of a higher power. I can kind of understand the Vision/mind stone/Wanda connection because the mind stone was at least explained to resemble an artificial intelligence but are they saying all the stones have intelligence?

[@karllynch1243]

@@Loreweavver they might just use Chthon as the mcu’s Mephisto.

[@Loreweavver]

It’s possible but there’s too much potential lost. They are vastly different entities narrative wise. Mephisto is much more anthropomorphic with an understanding of the human psyche whereas Chthon represents an ancient extra dimensional entity that thinks in a manner incomprehensible to mortals.

[@Proloyable]

A really cool thing would be If Mephisto bargained with Sylvie to kill Kang and break the multiverse. Maybe Sylvie at an early age abandoned the thought of revenging the TVA (because what they did to her!!) but then Mephisto appeared and manipulated her to regain the revenge mentality and then she did what we all saw.

I wonder whether it possible she could say "No more sorcerers" under Baron Mordos influence instead of "No more Mutants", as its unlikely mutants will have been introduced into the MCU by this point.

Mesphisto should be Norman Osborne aka William Dafoe. He was obviously being influenced by some pretty dark thoughts... Manifesting in the Goblin persona... He could have been the bug in the ear if Obadiah Stain, to kill the Starks. The one to lead the Mandarin to the rings. The one who told Odin and Thanos about the stones, hoping for more destruction and chaos to feed on. Obviously we've got (crimson bands) Cyttarak, and (Darkhold) Ctthon on the horizon. Hella has already appeared. Mesphisto could have been plotting and planting seeds for the formation of Hydra, the release of Hella could have been a pact between Odin and Mesphisto for Odin keeping Surtur at bay... there's so much they could do with it. I agree that this would be an amazing way to bring Victor Von Doom in seamlessly as well.

We can assume he simply manipulated Nat by giving her that daddy info, but also, Skull can be presumed dead and in Mephisto's realm.

AND, say he's looking off down at Nat and/or Cliff as the camera brings it in closer. Prolonged to a few seconds and he looks up at the camera slightly/briefly.

With a smirk, ala post credit Thanos.

Here's how you introduce Mephisto, you introduce Dr Doom in his own solo movie explaining Dr Doom's motivation, you backdoor introduce Dr Doom as the reason for the Ebon Blade's curse, you have Mephisto be the reason why the Spirit of Vengeance exists (maybe through proxy of the Good Smaritan); then finally, maybe after the first Fantastic Four movie you get a Midnight Son's movie which is presented as a Heist movie where Dr Doom gathers Dr Strange, Ghost Rider, Black Knight and through him Blade to break into hell to steal Dr Doom's mother from Mephisto all while getting their own personal come uppance on the entity. Of course Dr Doom always has a plan within a plan, and it turns out Dr Doom steals some kind of Maguffin that makes Dr Doom some kind of a Kang level threat , for the thing that Marvel starts building up after they finish with Kang. Maybe Dr Doom is going from Hell dimension to hell dimensions stealing other hell lord powers after taking Mephisto's, then you can tie in Nightmare in Dr Strange 3, maybe Cytorak in an X Men movie with Juggernaut, maybe the rework the One Below All into a Helllord that Doom steals something from him in a Hulk stand alone film, you get what I'm putting down; this gives us a reason to have a big 2 part movie involving the Avengers/FF4/X-Men/Midnight-Sons/Hell-Lords(depowered) all teaming up to take down a God Emperor Doom in a Hickman style Battle World. This is my Ted Talk.

A where’s Waldo with Mephisto would be awesome
