Let the speculations begin - Tom Holland was on the set of Doctor Strange!
Disney and Marvel have decided that the fans are allowed to see a few official pics from the set of next year's 2nd MCU movie. The pics were taken on the set in London, where executive producer Louis D’Esposito made a special visit. Besides the fact that we may have caught a glimpse of Strange's Sanctum sanctum in these pics, a couple of other characters (besides the executive producer himself) appear - most interestingly, Tom Holland.
As everybody knows, the young actor is set to appear for the first time in the MCU as Spider-Man next year, in Captain America: Civil War. But what most of the fans might have forgotten is that another movie was rumored to introduce the web-slinger into the Marvel Shared Universe.

Before Peter Parker was announced to at least cameo in Civil War, the rumor said that Doctor Strange was going to feature his first appearance, before the 2017 solo movie (which won't be solo at all, since Robert Downey Jr. is also a main star). Is there a hidden meaning to this pictures? Can we expect for Tom Holland to appear in 2 Marvel movies next year?

Well, if he does, then he will have two cameos - there is no chance that Tom Holland will have a more consistent role beside Benedict Cumberbatch, since Doctor Strange will explore the mystical origins of the titular character. So, in all likelihood, the young actor will be one of the witnesses (at most!) of the fight between Strange and Mordo.

To be noted, Spider-Man and Doctor Strange met on several occasions in the comics, with one's title being called Spider-Man/Doctor Strange: The Way to Dusty Death, in 1992. Other than that, each of the characters just cameoed in the other one's comic book issues.
What do you think, though? Is there a reason to think that Tom Holland will cameo in 2 Marvel flicks next year? Or was he just visiting the Doctor Strange set?
