New Fan Theory Suggests Marvel Has Already Revealed the MCU’s Anchor, and It’s Not Tony, Peter, or Wanda

As a die-hard Marvel fan who’s been following the MCU since its inception, I must say that the introduction of anchor beings in the recent Deadpool & Wolverine film has added an intriguing layer to the multiverse narrative. The theory suggesting Doctor Strange as the anchor being for Earth-616 is particularly captivating, and it resonates with me on a personal level.


The latest film starring Deadpool and Wolverine has just been released, breaking box office records worldwide and leaving fans everywhere thrilled. A significant factor in the movie’s success is its generous helping of fan service elements, with memorable cameos and hilarious humor being its most celebrated aspects.

The movie’s storyline is quite minimal and has numerous gaps and chronology issues, which aligns with the typical style of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Nevertheless, it presented a fresh idea within the MCU – the notion of an “anchor.”

According to Mr. Paradox, an ‘anchor entity’ plays a vital role in preserving a specific universe within the multiverse. So long as this entity persists, the corresponding timeline stays intact. However, once the anchor entity ceases to exist, the timeline starts deteriorating and will eventually perish, a procedure that may take as little as one day or as long as several thousand years.

In the film, Wolverine – who perished in the 2017 movie Logan – was disclosed as a crucial stabilizing force for Earth-10005. His demise had put Deadpool’s world precariously close to ruin at the outset of the story. Mr. Paradox aimed to hasten this deterioration by employing the time ripper.

In the upcoming phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Anchor Beings are anticipated to take on a crucial part, considering the multiverse theme of the ongoing storyline. There’s already buzz that Peter Parker could be the Anchor Being for Earth-616, while fans have their own ideas about potential candidates for this pivotal role.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), various ideas have been proposed regarding who or what serves as the anchor for Earth-616. Some speculate it’s Kang the Conqueror, while others believe it could be Wanda. However, an interesting fan hypothesis posits that Doctor Strange might actually be the anchor for Earth-616.

The theory’s main argument is that when Strange looked into possible futures, he likely saw a scenario where his death would cause the collapse of the entire reality. You can watch the video explaining the theory below:
