Doctor Strange 3 Rumors: Impact on Avengers: Secret Wars and MCU Future
A recent rumor suggests that Doctor Strange 3 may not be a priority for Marvel Studios, potentially impacting an upcoming Avengers movie. Benedict Cumberbatch has portrayed the Sorcerer Supreme in previous MCU films, including Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. According to insider Alex Perez, Doctor Strange 3 is currently on the backburner, with Marvel focusing on other projects like Black Panther 3, Shang-Chi 2, Spider-Man 5, X-Men, Thunderbolts sequel, Blade, Midnight Sons, and the next Avengers title. While rumors should be taken with caution, the delay of Doctor Strange 3 could be linked to the character's fate in the anticipated Avengers: Secret Wars movie. In the Secret Wars comic storyline, Doctor Strange sacrifices himself to save other Marvel heroes, which might hint at his potential fate in the upcoming film. However, this remains speculation until Marvel Studios provides an official update. Doctor Strange was last seen in the 2022 movie Multiverse of Madness.
