After everything that happens in Doctor Strange 2, you’d think we’d get a stronger lead into a follow-up film.
Indeed, the director revealed the original cut for Doctor Strange 2 ran nearly three hours in length before reshoots truncated the plot.
Benedict Cumberbatch is an amazing actor — see Sherlock, The Imitation Game, and The Way of the Dog — and certainly passes the eye test for the Doctor Strange character.
Really, the events of the film amount to little more than Wanda’s supposed death and Strange now possessing a third eye.
