Sam Raimi Confirms He’s Directing Doctor Strange 2. Here’s Everything You Need To Know

Sam Raimi Directing Doctor Strange 2

Doctor Strange 2 has been pushed back to November 5, 2021. This will allow the creatives with the right amount of time to get the story spot on. This time was certainly needed because Marvel seems to be stuffing a bunch of stuff into Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. And it was needed also because of the directorial change. A capable horror movie director has replaced Scott Derrickson. It is absolutely what the doctor ordered as Sam Raimi has indeed confirmed that he has helmed Doctor Strange 2.

Here’s what the Spider-Man trilogy director said:

“I loved Doctor Strange as a kid, but he was always after Spider-Man and Batman for me, he was probably at number five for me of great comic book characters. He was so original, but when we had that moment in Spider-Man 2 I had no idea that we would ever be making a Doctor Strange movie, so it was really funny to me that coincidentally that line was in the movie. I gotta say I wish we had the foresight to know that I was going to be involved in the project.”

Since Raimi is an accomplished Superhero movie director as well, he is absolutely perfect for Doctor Strange 2. In fact with him being involved with a Marvel Multiverse movie, it is entirely possible that we could get to see a cameo from Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man through the Multiverse. The other things that we’ve to keep in mind are that there are going to be some creepy horror sequences in this movie.

Along with Benedict Cumberbatch, we will see Elizabeth Olsen playing Scarlet Witch. Mordo, Wong & the Ancient One are supposed to return. Clea & Brother Voodoo are new arrivals while Nightmare & Agatha will most likely be the villains. Also, other new characters rumored to appear are Namor, Captain Britain & Ghost Rider. Let’s see how Sam Raimi handles everything with the biggest film of 2021, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
