In an interview about the Quibi series 50 States of Fright with ComingSoon.net, Raimi mentioned the film as part of a conversation about the reference to Doctor Strange in his Spider-Man 2.
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 …
I gotta say I wish we had the foresight to know that I was going to be involved in the project.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is scheduled for release on November 5, 2021. If Raimi’s at the helm there’s no question; it’s our most anticipated movie in Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
