Production has wrapped on Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which will technically be Sam Raimi’s first horror movie in more than 10 years and first Marvel superhero movie in nearly 15 years… but the wait is going to be a little while longer.
Raimi’s return to the world of Marvel had been set to release on March 25, 2022, but we’ve learned this afternoon that it has been slightly bumped this week to May 6, 2022.
Speaking at a recent Q&A (via Games Radar), star Elizabeth Olsen promised that Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange sequel is “very scary,” which should please horror fans.
“It’s a very scary movie,” Olsen said. “It’s like old Sam Raimi. They’re trying to create the scariest Marvel movie.”
Xochitl Gomez (“The Baby-Sitters Club”) recently joined the cast as America Chavez, alongside Benedict Cumberbatch, Benedict Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Rachel McAdams.
