Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

Because the film is about variants and the multiverse, there’s a chance that multiple performers will appear in cameo roles, either as variations of existing characters or reprising roles from other franchises. Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen reprise their roles as Strange in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The film stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen and is directed by Sam Raimi. The movie will be released on Disney+ – just as previous Marvel films have.
