A recent buzz about the upcoming third installment of the Doctor Strange series indicates Marvel might be on the hunt for a fresh director to steer the franchise forward.
Benedict Cumberbatch has been portraying the character of Dr. Stephen Strange in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2016. He’s headlined two Doctor Strange films – the first one from 2016, helmed by Scott Derrickson, and the most recent one in 2022, titled Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, directed by Sam Raimi. Additionally, he has acted in Thor: Ragnarok (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), and the What If…? animated series.
What is the latest Doctor Strange 3 rumor?
Despite Marvel Studios not officially confirming a Doctor Strange 3, there’s been plenty of speculation suggesting its future release. Previously, Benedict Cumberbatch has shown his enthusiasm for another film appearance.
Based on reports from MyTimeToShineHello, it’s possible that Raimi could direct Doctor Strange 3, but as of now, Marvel seems to be considering other directors for the role. This suggests that while Raimi might return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, his involvement in Doctor Strange 3 is not yet confirmed, as they are exploring alternative options at the moment.
At the moment, it’s crucial to emphasize that there’s no official word on Doctor Strange 3. Similarly, Benedict Cumberbatch’s role in Avengers: Doomsday remains unconfirmed for now.
Regarding Benedict Cumberbatch’s future roles in the MCU, there has been much debate. After the release of Avengers: Endgame, there is an unnamed Marvel film set to premiere in July 2027. This suggests that it will come before Avengers: Secret Wars. Some believe this could be Black Panther 3 or Doctor Strange 3. This theory becomes plausible if the MCU’s version of Secret Wars mirrors Doctor Strange’s part in the Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribić comic series.
As a film enthusiast myself, I’m thrilled to share that Sam Raimi’s schedule is jam-packed for the near future! Next year, he’ll be unleashing his latest masterpiece, “Send Help,” on the big screen. On top of that exciting news, there’s another tantalizing tidbit: Raimi is now working on a remake of the 1978 classic, “Magic,” for Lionsgate! Can’t wait to see what he has in store for us!
