Derrickson left the project, and Sam Raimi was brought on in his stead to helm the upcoming Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Directed by Sam Raimi, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Xochitl Gomez.
After the success of the original Doctor Strange, the film’s director Scott Derrickson was fully on board to direct the sequel as well.
Enter Doctor Strange, who, according to Waldron, will get knocked about quite a bit as he struggles to deal with a collapsing Multiverse.
