It kind of makes sense that Strange would be the anchor being if they ever bring it up again. There's no doubt he would learn he was the anchor being, and we've seen how obsessive he can become with prolonging the life of a loved one or even an entire universe.

[@taldesanti2803]

I feel like if kang was the anchor beeing on that universe he would be on every universe instead of only the mcu universe

[@inoriwa]

The anchor being is the friends we made along the way

[@bellcurve0]

Kang as the anchor being… people would straight riot. Lets just be happy folks seem to be on board again with marvel movies from the deadpool goodwill.

[@timfries7236]

Ravonna from Loki should be Kang's female doppleganger, like Sylvie and Loki. It would be a good wrap-up to their weird connection during season 2.

[@brandonyoung-kemkes1128]

I always wondered why Doctor Strange was playing with water when he could’ve easily froze it during endgame. Maybe he is the anchor being.

[@ttandtrina]

The fact that he didn’t mention Steve Rogers in this video is crazy

[@marcusisrealious1255]

This video is so REACHY it makes Reed Richard’s blush

How did Deadpool travel to the 616 for the interview with Happy?

[@siddharth-movaliya]

I too want the answer to this question!!!

[@SMunlimited]

@@siddharth-movaliya i think it was through cables time machine as this interview was just a bit after deadpool 2 and he even says he destroyed cables time machine after this interview when he gives up on everything

[@rhodrage]

How did he travel to Ryan Reynolds reading the GL script and the Origins timeline where he killed tha universes him. The answer is the same.

[@emmanuelmalcom6409]

@@SMunlimited but the time travel device is just supposed to only allow you to move forward and backward in time not allow you to multiverse travel

What if the anchor being was an an MCU Apocalypse that was killed thousands of years ago, possibly through a future time travel story. It could also be the "reason" why the mutants haven't been in the MCU

[@kevinmelvin395]

It could culminate in an time traveling extended bigger battle of earth being the reason why the multiverse opened up again after endgame.

[@botz77]

Huh, I thought the thing with Thor was just a joke. Now I'm thinking Deadpool might be in the next Thor movie. Which kind of works with how silly and weird the Thor films have become.

All of Stan Lee's cameos saves someone they just didn't realize

[@maxTheTimeSlasher]

I think Tony being an anchor being makes so much sense since you can take the films not doing well as the universe dying after endgame.

[@Jc-fp2im]

I don’t think there is a anchor being for the 616 universe because it’s the sacred timeline it’s never supposed to end

[@MrCake-ui8uo]

Kang chose it to be the sacred time line..

[@Jc-fp2im]

@@MrCake-ui8uo now that you say that I vaguely remember that and now I gotta go rewatch Loki

[@terrygallo8999]

That’s why it’s loki

[@andrewbogard2411]

​@terrygallo8999 that's what I was thinking, loki died in endgame but a version of him was brought into the 616 universe, so I think it is loki as he is literally the anchor being holding the timeline together

[@cursebarklee41]

I bet Doom died in 616 due to some sort of accident or other and because of that Tony died as well. It’s possible that there are 2 anchors and if one or both die it’ll effect the universe is why there will be a Tony Stark/Doom lookalike lol

[@xxmrtreyzxx]

Maybe Nick fury ? Or maybe they have a multi anchor beings since it’s the sacred timeline

[@slightlydapperdwarf49]

Kang is a counqueror, and conquerors are tacticians. When would be the best time to take out his biggest threat? When they are down and wounded, i.e., after the events of Doomsday or Secret Wars, when our heroes are still reeling from their final battle with Doctor Doom. Kang knows all about time, it's likely he's travelling to a time when he sees himself having the greatest odds of success. I personally think this would be a better alternative than just scrapping his character entirely. I can see them setting up Battle World and God King Doom at the end of Avengers Doomsday, then having him defeated by the end, and having Kang step in as the final obstacle before the restoration of the Multiverse, and the reversal of Battle World.

[@rgonz81]

The sacred timeline doesn't need an anchor being it's the main timeline "tree", the "anchor" is tied to the sacred timeline "trunk" and anchors the "branch" to the main timeline "tree".

[@AuthentiXPodcast]

The anchor being is such an interesting concept... I mean, the X-Men "reality" existed just fine before Logan was born, right? Probably for thousands of years. Why would an entire reality be tied to a mortal being who at some point in history will absolutely 100% die? Feels like an odd concept. I'm excited to see how they evolve on it.

[@ajfar3514]

Steve Rogers could be a good candidate for being the Anchor Being

[@t51773]

a universe that is 13.8 Billion years old whose existence is dependent on an anchor being that is just 250 years old ... that does not make sence

[@tokyoonostalgia]

A. It doesn't matter until the anchor being is born then things start kicking off B. It's just a movie

[@redskyz4426]

the universe can exist before the anchor being is born, it’s when they die that the universe starts to die out

[@robertray1028]

I think it’s T’Challa, his death has the most impact that we have barely scratched the surface of.

[@MistahMarvelous1]

There could be the possibility that an Anchor being must pass through an absolute point.
