Sam Raimi never thought that a DoctorStrange movie would happen because 'He was a second or third tier character'
✖ Sam Raimi says that Doctor Strange was originally a"second or third tier character." While speaking with AMC Theatres, the filmmaker talked about his upcoming return to Marvel with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. But, there's something interesting about the beloved Spider-Man director coming back for a different character. Raimi believes that Stephen Strange could use some shine. He's never had the cache of Captain America, Thor, or some of the other Avengers.
"He was like a second or third tier character for Marvel," Raimi began."Obviously, their big popular names were Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, The Avengers, Captain America, Thor. And because none of those other movies were being made, I actually never imagined they would make a Doctor Strange movie. Just seemed far from possible."
In a previous conversation with Fandango, the director talked about the different version of characters audiences would meet in the Multiverse."Yes. The movie is a journey into the multiverse, so you do see different iterations of Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange, and even Lizzie Olsen's character of Wanda Maximoff," Raimi revealed."So, the actors have to play that.
Marvel Studios dropped an official description for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness recently:"Now that Iron Man and Captain America have left after a fierce battle in Avengers: Endgame, former genius surgeon and the strongest magician of them all, Doctor Strange, is expected to play an active role as a central figure in the Avengers.
"To restore a world where everything is changing, Strange seeks help from his ally Wong, the Sorcerer Supreme, and the Avengers' most powerful Scarlet Witch, Wanda. But a terrible threat looms over humanity and the entire universe that no longer can be done by their power alone. Even more surprising, the greatest threat in the universe looks exactly like Doctor Strange.
