Marvel Studios Canada reportedly published and then deleted a short video showing Patrick Stewart as X-Men's Charles Xavier in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

Which was copied and restreamed by other accounts before deletion.

While initially coy about his role in the film, he eventually confirmed his identity.

So what's the big deal with this latest one?

This chair originates from the comics, would be known to many fans from the 1990s animated series and has not been seen in any of the previous Fox films.

With Disney rebooting that animated series this could suggest that they plan to create discrete content from different universes.

Also that in Doctor Strange Patrick Stewart might be playing the role of Charles Xavier from the animated series.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness premieres in Australian cinemas on May 4.
