Future of Chavez

Xochitl Gomez, who played America Chavez in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, recently discussed the future of her character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the Sam Raimi film, the main character's superhero teams up with Chavez, an adolescent from another realm who has the ability to open portals to other realities.

Escape

In an effort to escape Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), who desires Chavez's skills to reunite with her children, she thrusts herself and Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) through multiple universes.

Wanda

By the time the movie is over, Chavez has mastered the art of controlling her abilities, and by exposing Wanda to her offspring from an alternate dimension, she is able to vanquish her.

Her multi-dimensional portal abilities

Chavez joins Sorcerer Supreme Wong (Benedict Wong) at Kamar-Taj, the school for the Masters of the Mystic Arts because he has nowhere else to go. She starts her sorcerer training there, perhaps learning how to handle her multi-dimensional portal abilities.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

Gomez talked about Chavez's future in the MCU after the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in a recent interview with Collider.

The actress said that since Doctor Strange helped her during the course of the movie and refrained from sacrificing her in order to acquire her powers, she is currently rediscovering trust. However, Wong is also preparing her for a potential leadership position later on by providing her with "discipline and structure" at Kamar-Taj.

Avengers

Gomez's remarks imply that Chavez would soon join a group and possibly take over the role of the team's de facto leader. Her working with other Marvel superheroes is unavoidable given the structure of the MCU. But it's possible that she'll eventually join a real team like the Avengers.

Premiere dates switched

Despite the fact that Chavez made his debut in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Tom Holland was slated to play the character in Spider-Man: No Way Home since he was the one responsible for bringing both of Spider-previous Man's theatrical iterations into the MCU.

But because of the epidemic, the premiere dates were switched, and both movies had to be redone.

Youthful Avengers superhero team

Many people believe that the MCU is preparing the Youthful Avengers superhero team for Phase 6 because the movies and television shows are always presenting young superheroes.

In comic books, Nathaniel Richards, a fictionalized version of Kang the Conqueror, travels back in time and assembles a group of superheroes that are connected to the Avengers.

Young heroes like Cassandra Lang, Eli Bradley, Kate Bishop, Speed, Wiccan, and America Chavez made up this team. Chavez has also frequently partnered with Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan).

Key Figure

Chavez may have just recently been introduced to the MCU in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but she is sure to be a key player in future confrontations.
