Dr. Strange on TF1: The Marvel Magician Must Face a Completely Different villain

In Dr. Strange’s Madness Multiplayer, which hits theaters this Wednesday, TF1 uses the opportunity to escape and surf the Marvel Superhero story, with the screening of the first movie released in 2016 this Sunday evening.

In the film, Dr. Stephen Strange, once properly trained, confronts Ketsilius (played by Maddie Mickelsen) and Dormamus (whose face is nothing but the face of Benedict Cumberbatch). But instead of meeting this extra-dimensional creature born of pure magic, the protagonist could face a completely different enemy in the movie: a terrible nightmare.

Indeed, as director Scott Derrickson said in an interview EmpireHe very much wanted to stage a meeting between Strange and his first enemy, the master of the dimension of dreams in comics.

This demon, who specializes in locking up tormented souls in his kingdom before they go to sleep, will eventually fail to make the film because for Marvel Studios director Kevin Page, his intervention would have greatly complicated the script.

“Kevin had some very valid points. The problem with starting with Nightmare is that you have to come up with the idea of ​​a dream dimension as a new dimension. The film was already quite difficult. It’s already quite a heavy exposure. “And he’m also the villain who is most featured in the comics.” Explained Scott Derrickson.

Before you do that, (again) here is Dr. Strange (non) adventure sequel trailer orchestrated by Sam Rhyme.
