Sam Raimi‘s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is coming to theaters on May 6, and Raimi’s return to Marvel has officially received its MPA rating this week.
The Doctor Strange sequel is rated “PG-13” for:
“Intense sequences of violence and action, frightening images and some language.”
Needless to say, you don’t get things like “intense sequences of violence” and “frightening images” in every Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, and indeed Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has been advertised as the most horror-heavy movie from the universe to date. Coming from Sam Raimi, we can probably expect as much horror as Marvel will allow.
On that note, Marvel’s Kevin Feige recently noted in an interview that Raimi’s Doctor Strange 2 will “make fans of Evil Dead II very happy.” Yeah. We’re buying our tickets right now!
In Marvel’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the MCU unlocks the Multiverse and pushes its boundaries further than ever before. Journey into the unknown with Doctor Strange, who, with the help of mystical allies both old and new, traverses the mind-bending and dangerous alternate realities of the Multiverse to confront a mysterious new adversary.
Multiverse of Madness stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, with Michael Stühlbarg, and Rachel McAdams.
