Marvel Studios' Victoria Alonso has confirmed that reshoots for ‘Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness’ are currently still taking place, but are almost done. After its original release date of November 2021, ‘Doctor Strange 2’ was pushed back to make way for the highly anticipated Spider-Man: No Way Home. The sequel to 2016's ‘Doctor Strange’ suffered a subsequent delay with the film now finally slated for release in May 2022. The follow up will see former ‘Spider-Man’ director Sam Raimi helm what is being dubbed the MCU's "first horror movie," with the film set to link to a number of Marvel's other ‘Phase 4’ releases.
‘Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness’ will see Benedict Cumberbatch reprise his role as the Master of the Mystic Arts, Doctor Stephen Strange, alongside a returning ensemble cast that includes the likes of Benedict Wong, Rachel McAdams and Chiwetel Ejiofor. As for what can be expected from this upcoming release, ‘Doctor Strange 2’ has remained shrouded in mystery throughout its production, with very little having been confirmed in the way of plot up to this point. After filming was initially interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic, production officially resumed in January 2021, with a number of planned reshoots having been confirmed for late this year.
Now, it appears that Marvel is nearly wrapped on the process of shooting the film's additional photography as 2021 edges to a close. While speaking with Variety at the premiere of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, Marvel's President of Physical and Post Production, Victoria Alonso confirmed that reshoots are still taking place on the ‘Doctor Strange’ sequel, but shared that they are "almost done." Alonso also alluded to the packed slate that Marvel have in store for 2022, going on to say "there is so much to come," and teasing that there would be plenty of news next year.
