Bruce Campbell Claims His Doctor Strange 2 & Raimi Spider-Man Trilogy Characters Are The Same

Bruce Campbell has surprisingly revealed that his Marvel Cinematic Universe character in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and his characters in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy are the same person. Campbell played Pizza Poppa in the MCU movie.

Speaking with Comicbook.com, Campbell made the shocking reveal that the Raimi Spider-Man and Doctor Strange movies are connected through him. Check out the full quote below:

“The cameos are like, in the Spider-Man movies — if you know anything about the multiverse, you know now, retroactively, I’m in the multiverse now because of Doctor Strange. I’m not a pizza vendor, OK? That would be a massive mistake to think I’m just a pizza vendor, or an usher, or a ring announcer, or a maître d’. It’s called the multiverse, my friend. So, yes, he is the same character, but we don’t know who he really is. It has not been revealed yet. I just got off the phone with the guys at Marvel, and we’re getting close to finding out.”

When asked if that means he is actually Mysterio:

“I can’t confirm or deny.”
