Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness is finally available to watch in theaters, and it has received mixed reviews. After receiving a B+, it is one of the worst-rated MCU(Marvel Cinematic Universe) movies ever on Cinemascore. However, this sequel had a lot of attributes to it which made it one of the best MCU movies to date.
The character arcs of Doctor Strange and Wanda Maximoff were handled well, the visuals were stunning and Marvel acknowledged that their movies aren’t only meant for the general audience, but also for the Comic Book fans, and gave Doctor Strange his comic-accurate look. But did you know that it was Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios who was responsible for this change?
Kevin Feige Requested The Costume Designer To Change Doctor Strange’s ‘Master’ Suit
In the press release for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Costume designer Graham Churchyard explained how Kevin Feige had specific requests for what he wanted to see in terms of changes to Benedict Cumberbatch’s costume in the sequel.
“With this movie, Kevin [Feige] wanted to upgrade Doctor Strange’s costume. In all his previous outings, he had remained in his disciple costume. Even though he had graduated and was now a Master, in ‘Infinity’ and in ‘Endgame’ he is wearing the disciple costume, so Kevin wanted to use the new movie as an opportunity to upgrade him so that he is wearing a Master’s costume from the very beginning, which we tailored to give a very heroic and powerful silhouette.”

Why The Cloak’s Design Remained Unchanged
“There were lots of discussions about the cloak, so I sketched out a number of designs, but in the end we decided to stick with the same cloak as the first film, which kind of makes sense because it is a relic that found Doctor Strange, and therefore is a very precious, irreplaceable item.”
