Trivia: Scott Derrickson describes this film as enabling a Marvel Comics multiverse to exist: “What we’ve wanted from the beginning was to bring in these other dimensions and realities, which is something Dr Strange can do. Much like how the early Doctor Strange comics broke open the Marvel comic book universe into the Marvel multiverse, this film serves the same function. In the comics it ended up being decades of new stories and I think this movie will do the same thing.”

Benedict cumberbatch said this when asked about him being casted as doctor strange, “Excited. Really excited. There’s a lot of work to be done and i’m just at the beginning of it all so i’m not going to talk too much about it but it’s a thrilling gig to get. I just can’t wait. Very excited.”
