In just a week it will hit theaters Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the sequel to the 2016 Doctor Strange movie. This new installment has been one of the most complicated shoots in the history of Marvel Studios. After multiple delays, the next may 6 we can see the result in theaters. However, there are a few lucky ones who have already been able to see 20 minutes of the feature film in the Las Vegas CinemaCon. Disney has been careful not to include too many spoilers at this screening, but those who have attended the event already know a little more about the new characters in this film.
The multiverse of shooting madness
If one thing is clear, it is that Doctor Strange is a fictional character. If it had not been, we would be sure that this superhero would have done something to prevent his movie from being delayed so many times. The feature film directed by Sam Raimi began shooting in November 2020. What Benedict Cumberbatch and company did not tell is that a year later, they would return to the starting point, like a time travel.
The initial filming of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness lasted until May 2021. The studio had to upload the green screens and turn off the cameras on multiple occasions due to the constant outbreaks of coronavirus among the staff working on the film. Cumberbatch even became proud of his teammates. Some came to sleep away from home in order to minimize the risk of being exposed to the virus. An impressive sacrifice so that everything went smoothly.
But nothing kept them from going back to school. At the end of 2021, with the film already recorded, the cast had to return to rewrite the tape. Apparently, the montage was not convincing, and they were working for long hours in December to finish filming once and for all. Luckily, this recording was the definitive one that we will see in theaters shortly. In fact, some people have already been able to see a rather interesting preview of the new Marvel movie.
Watch outthe following will reveal possible spoilers of the plot of the film, so if you don’t want to know more, you’d better skip the article.
Disney has revealed 20 minutes of Doctor Strange footage at CinemaCon
A few lucky ones who have come this week to the CinemaCon You have already been able to see a few minutes of the new Doctor Strange movie. The video has not leaked, but there is testimonials of those who have attended the event.
According to the viewers, the fragment began with the presentation of America Chavez, a new character played by Xochitl Gómez. America comments to Strange and Wong that he’s from another dimension—just like in the comics. America is being chased by a monster from that universe who wants to take away her powers to create portals. However, the girl barely has control over her abilities, which only activate when she is afraid.
Apparently the rhythm of the film will be frantic. Those who have been able to see these 20 minutes say that the film is full of fast-paced action and all kinds of details. As they say, the fragment ends with a new conversation between Strange and America. He will discover that in the girl’s universe there is another version of himself who thinks very differently from him. And America will discover that in her universe there is no Spider-Man.
As you may have noticed, the film promises. There are much more detailed testimonials on the Internet, but it is difficult to differentiate if they are real or if they are users trying to attract attention in the forums. In any case, it seems like a very interesting and almost spoiler-free preview that makes the wait a little more enjoyable.
