Speculation Abounds: The Marvels Reportedly Features a Mysterious Cameo Stirring Fan Theories

Highlights

Rumors suggest that the post-credits scene of The Marvels could connect Brie Larson's Captain Marvel to the X-Men movies by featuring Kelsey Grammer's Beast.

In The Marvels, Captain Marvel, Kamala Khan, and Monica Rambeau embark on a quest to discover the reason behind their power exchange, which appears to be unrelated to the MCU Multiverse agenda. The speculation surrounding the addition of Grammer's Beast has sparked a fresh wave of anticipation for The Marvels, potentially elevating its success at the box office.

Rumored reports suggest that the post-credits scene of The Marvels may introduce a legacy character, Kelsey Grammer's Beast from the X-Men movies, to establish a link between Brie Larson's Captain Marvel and the MCU's Multiverse plan. The upcoming film features Larson's Captain Marvel teaming up with Iman Vellani's Kamala Khan and Teyonah Parris' Monica Rambeau. While the main storyline revolves around the trio's attempt to understand the cause behind their power-swapping, fans speculate whether The Marvels will contribute to Marvel Studios' larger goal of constructing the MCU Multiverse in preparation for Avengers: Secret Wars.

A reliable scooper named DanielRPK started a rumor suggesting that the post-credits scene of The Marvels will connect the movie to Fox's X-Men films through the character Beast, played by Kelsey Grammer. DanielRPK hinted at the return of an actor who was a perfect fit for a certain role but didn't get the chance to do justice to it because they were wasted in a bad movie. Although DanielRPK didn't explicitly mention Beast, Twitter user MyNameIsJeff deduced that Beast was the character being referred to based on DanielRPK's previous comments about Grammer's casting. Marvel Studios has not made an official statement on the rumor, most likely to avoid spoiling the surprise for the audience. However, the rumor gained more traction when another reputable scooper named CanWeGetSomeToast shared a Twitter post featuring posters for The Marvels, Deadpool 3, and Avengers: Secret Wars, implying that everything is starting to connect. While these scoopers, including Grace Randolph, have not revealed the cameo, the rumor gained more credibility when MyTimeToShineHello responded to a 2021 Twitter post about Grammer's Beast by simply writing, "Wow."

Avengers: Secret Wars is said to include Ian McKellen's Magneto and other actors from Marvel movies that were made before or separately from the MCU. The crossover between Marvel Studios and Fox's X-Men movies has been established with the introduction of Patrick Stewart's Professor X in Doctor Strange 2 and Hugh Jackman returning as Wolverine in Deadpool 3. Therefore, it is not unlikely for Grammer's Beast to be involved in connecting The Marvels to the MCU's Multiverse storyline.

Despite projections of a low opening weekend, there has been renewed interest from moviegoers due to the rumors of Grammer's Beast appearing in The Marvels. While some fans were already excited for the film, this rumor has added to their excitement.

The Marvels will be released in theaters on November 10, 2023.
