Fans are speculating about his return as the AI Griot and are demanding Dua Lipa’s cameo in the film as well. This would make sense as Dua Lipa and Trevor Noah sparked dating speculations after they were spotted kissing and hugging on a cozy date night out in New York City a few weeks ago. The British singer’s cameo as another AI would just be perfect for the duo.
The film will conclude Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and will be released in theatres worldwide on July 10, 2025.
