MARVEL FINDS THEIR “DOCTOR STRANGE”

THAT’S NOT SO “STRANGE”
Article by Adam Mast

After months of speculation, Marvel has officially found their DOCTOR STRANGE and it should come as no surprise that it’s…

BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH!

I say no surprise because Cumberbatch’s name has been bandied about for what feels like an eternity. There was a moment when it looked like Joaquin Phoenix would be taking on the role of a surgeon trained by a sorcerer to defend the world against evil, but that didn’t pan out.

DOCTOR STRANGE will be helmed by SINISTER director ScottDerrickson and is slated for release in November, 2016.
