New characters in Doctor In The Multiverse of Madness?

According to Kevin Feige, fans would not be able to guess the characters that will make their debut in the MCU with Doctor In The Multiverse of Madness. He has been trying to get these mystery characters for quite a while and now based on the film’s tone he is finally able to do so. Talking to students at the New York Film Academy, Feige spoke on the character selection process for the Marvel films and how sometimes Feige and his executive team decide who should be introduced next, while character debuts can sometimes develop during the scriptwriting phase. Feige said that sometimes you are choosing the title hero, choosing which main character or main team you want to bring to the screen. Often times, it is as you are making and developing the movie and asking 'Who will come into it?' and 'Who will fit into it'?
