Some more footage came out for Marvel’s Doctor Strange. And this time, we get glimpses of just how out there things will get.
The previous trailers showed us the reality-bending magic that Doctor Strange and others have — and it looked very similar to the dream sequences from Inception. It’s still a crazy sight but it wasn’t anything new. The footage now released makes the buildings bending and defying gravity look tame in comparison.
After making essentially B-list and C-list superheroes into mainstream powerhouses — you know, like Iron Man and Guardians of the Galaxy — Marvel Studios is now bringing another into the limelight: Doctor Strange. It doesn’t hurt that it stars Benedict Cumberbatch.
Marvel Studios is on the prowl for an actor to bring Doctor Strange to life. One of the names now making rounds is real human being, Ryan Gosling.
Marvel’s Phase 2 tiptoed into new waters with their highly successful Guardians of the Galaxy – which is in theaters. Go see it. If you did, go see it again. You know it’s worth it.
The latest Marvel rumor is that Johnny Depp is in talks to play Doctor Strange in a “Phase 3” movie. It makes a lot of sense. Depp has strong ties with Disney, and they own Marvel. Putting the two together is a guarantee for success. Unless The Lone Ranger really put the boots to Depp.
Marvel’s “Phase 2” is well underway, with Iron Man 3 leading the charge, and Guardians of the Galaxy as the newcomers on the big screen. Marvel Studios President, Kevin Feige, said they’re already planning out “Phase 3”, which will bring more comic book characters on the big screen.
Rather than strictly sticking with the current lineup that gave Marvel success, the studio is carrying forward with additional superheroes getting the film treatment. The Marvel movie universe just continues to expand.
