AVENGERS: ENDGAME Script Reveals A Scrapped Cameo Appearance From DOCTOR STRANGE Villain Dormammu

Dormammu didn't make the biggest impact in Doctor Strange, but his exchange with the Sorcerer Supreme was massively entertaining, and it's now been revealed that he very nearly made a brief return in Avengers: Endgame. 

As you can see from the script excerpt below, the 2012 version of The Ancient One was going to show The Hulk one possible future that would become a reality due to the timeline not having the Time Stone in it. This would have been a cool cameo for the villain and might have also helped to further explain the ramifications of Earth's Mightiest Heroes taking the Infinity Stones. 

Rumour has it that Nightmare will be the lead villain in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, so chances are we won't see Dormammu again for a while. 

There's definitely more that could be done with the villain, of course, but Marvel Studios has a very busy few years ahead and it's hard to say where he could fit into their plans. Then again, you never know with the MCU, and the fact that he nearly appeared in Avengers: Endgame may have at least opened the door to him showing up somewhere. 

We'll keep you guys updated if and when we hear more!

The HULK has taken L's since Avengers 2. My two cents...

@tripttwe - He "beat" Thor in Ragnarok, sorta. 😉

I'm not down on the comics tbh. But, with strange gone, and presumably the other Sorcerer's, why didn't Dormaammu attack the earth during the 5 year time gap when the stones were destroyed and no one could defend the earth?

Unless...Dormaammu was snapped as well? Can that happen? Is he a "snappable" creature?

@DannRamm113 - Dormammu being in another dimension/realm probably makes him unsnappable I would imagine. I'd need to rewatch Dr. Strange though for clues as to why he wouldn't be able to get to Earth during the 5 year gap. Been a while since I've seen it.

@DannRamm113 - I suppose it would depend on how aware he was of happenings in the MCU (whether he even knows the time stone was destroyed) and whether or not it was simply fear of it that kept him to the deal he made with Strange.

Endgame really needed a showstopper moment or 2. Dormammu or the Living Tribunal showing up could have really made things interesting.

@Ryguy88 -

But ummm....

@QuietStorm - yes.

I can't believe people complain about showstopper moments.

Endgame was a good-fanservice-style masterpiece.

This would've been super fun

I would've loved Endgame or Infinity War to start with a flashback of sorts, similar to The Cabal stuff from Dark Reign where cosmic/mythic/supernaturally powerful beings all met. This wouldn't be some super group, but moreso a way to show that there were back channels where big players from across the multiverse met and made sure they weren't stepping on each other's toes



It could show Dormammu, the Ancient One, Odin, Thanos, and any other number of people/beings yet to be introduced all meeting in a peace zone, and it's here that Thanos drops the hammer that he's going to assemble the gauntlet and the entire room goes quiet right before it cuts to black and we fade into the start of the movie

I think he will be the big bad for the third Doctor Strange movie, with probably Mordo as secondary villain

I was thinking about this a little yesterday, and I think really the biggest thing that could be considered 'plot hole' as far as the time travel insufficiently addressed is the Ancient One telling Bruce the collective of the Infinity Stones help create "what you experience as the flow of time".
So, Steve may very well have replaced them each where need be back in the past at original stolen point (minus of course Loki ganking the Tesserect) but in the present day the stones were "reduced to atoms". Not categorically, unequivocally GONE, I think they put in that line quiet specifically so the stones could still play some sort of role much later in the future of the MCU, being the size of atoms means they do technically still physically exist. But surely that kind of shrinkage would then significantly affect the "flow of time" experience...
