Spider-Man: No Way Home easily seals the deal in becoming the biggest movie of the year and it is clear why – it is over-the-top amazing! It has so much more to offer even after the roll starts. With two intriguing post-credits scenes, the film established what is to come in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and everyone couldn’t wait for more!
Post-Credits Scenes of Spider-Man: No Way Home Explained
Mid-Credits Scene: Is Venom Coming Into the MCU?
With the multiverse opening and previous versions of Spider-Man and their villains arrive in Earth 616, the current universe everyone has been following since the start, there is also one character that was teleported along with them: Eddie Brock a.k.a. Venom. The scene sprung from the one in his latest movie, Let There Be Carnage, and in the post-credits scene, we see him at a bar, taking some notes and interviewing the bartender.
It was a fun scene where Eddie Brock kept asking the bartender whether Thanos and his snap was real and the bartender immediately confirms it to him that it is since his family was gone for five years. Brock even described “super people” and he talked about Iron Man, the billionaire with the suit, and Hulk, the angry green man.
He wanted to go to Ney York to see these “super people” but he got summoned back to his universe and his reality resulting from the botched spell of Doctor Strange. However, when he got back, a part of him was left – Venom’s symbiote goo!

Whether this means that Venom is finally arriving in the MCU, it remains to be a question of the characters’ “content licensing” which is an agreement between Sony and Disney. If it wouldn’t be Tom Hardy in the MCU, it could be a different version of Venom, possibly Flash Thompson, or maybe Peter himself. Even when, technically, Holland’s contract is on the end of the line, anything is possible now.
It could also mean something for Thor: Love and Thunder as Christian Bale’s Gorr is about to debut in the MCU and he has ties to Knull, the one who created symbiotes. This just presupposes how each of the movies are intricately intertwined with each other and one surely leads to another.
End-Credits Scene: A Peak of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
With the second film of Doctor Strange supposedly appearing before No Way Home but got delayed due to the pandemic, Spider-Man: No Way Home had to adjust its script and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has to do a lot to re-do its plot as well, possibly the same reason why it was pushed for another few months for its release.
The end-credits scene takes the lines of Strange of the tampering of the stability of space-time and how scary the multiverse is. Someone on the other end tells Strange that there is a punishment for the “desecration of reality,” then Strange responds that, “it’s the only way,” and that he didn’t mean anything that happened.
There was the Sanctum Sanctorum, a wedding with Christine Palmer, America Chaves, Wong, and it cuts to Wanda living in the woods, expecting Strange’s appearance and apologizing for what happened in Westview. However, the Sorcerer Supreme is there for something else as he said to her that he needs her help with the multiverse.
We see the return of Chiwetel Ejiofor’s Baron Mordo saying sorry to Strange. A voice says, “I hope you understand,” pertaining to Strange, that “the greatest threat of our universe is you.” Then a familiar face from What If..? arrives – it is Strange Supreme who responds that “things just got out of hand.”
There is definitely a lot that is going on in the sneak peek of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. We see the new and improved Wanda who does some sort of spells on some kind of orb but this debunks the theory of her being a villain, which is really cool because she remains to be a heroine, then there is Strange Supreme, the sort-of-evil version of Strange which means that things will get more complicated.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is now out in theaters. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is scheduled for release on May 6, 2022.
