Efter att Scott Derrickson, som regisserade den första filmen om Doctor Strange, lämnade uppföljaren spred sig snabbt rykten som påstod att Marvel hört av sig till Sam Raimi. Ryktenas trovärdighet visade sig snabbt vara ganska så pålitliga men det är inte förrän nu som Sam Raimi bekräftat att han kommer regissera Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
"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."
Tror du Raimi är rätt person för jobbet?
