Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness is less than 3 weeks away! The hype for this movie continues to dominate the entertainment industry as it has done throughout 2022 so far. This movie will continue the stories of WandaVision, Loki, What If..?, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. It will introduce the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) to universes we have never seen before, with some that may seem quite familiar, and will probably continue the stories of timelines we’ve explored before.
“We wanted the fans to go ‘Oh how cool!’

I mean, that really was at goal, We wantedto give the fans what they wanted, just not exactly what they expected.”
In an interview with AMC Theaters, Sam Raimi talked about working with Marvel, his superhero overdose after directing the Raimi Spider-Man Trilogy, how he thought that Marvel would never make a Doctor Strange movie, and much more.
Sam Raimi Had ‘Superhero Overdose’ After The Raimi Trilogy
“He(Doctor Strange) was like a second or third tier character for Marvel. Obviously, their big popular names were Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, The Avengers, Captain America, Thor. And because none of those other movies were being made, I actually never imagined they would make a Doctor Strange movie. Just seemed far from possible.”

Sam Hasn’t Seen All MCU Movies
“I haven’t seen all the (MCU)movies, all the Marvel movies because after making three of the SPIDER-MAN movies, I had a little superhero overdose and I had to get away from them for a bit; but I saw IRON MAN. I was blown away with the characters and the great direction. And then I saw the first AVENGERS movie and I thought they really are finally bringing Stan Lee and Steve Ditko’s great visions to the screen.”

How Raimi Got The Opportunity To Direct Doctor Strange 2
“I heard that Marvel was in a jam and they, their director had fallen out, Scott Derrickson, due to creative differences and they had to shoot right away and the script needed work. And that’s the kind of job I like, with challenges. I thought it would be really interesting. So I wondered how making movies of that size had changed since I last embarked on one in 2013.”
