Disagreeing with Marvel, Doctor Strange 2 director announced his departure

Doctor Strange is a film adaptation of the company’s comic book of the same name Marvel, about the process of transforming the character from an arrogant surgeon to a superhero with a mission to protect the world. Released at the end of 2016, the film quickly received a lot of support from international audiences and earned huge revenue. After that, Marvel Studios and director Scott Derrickson officially confirmed that they would continue to work together to continue to make part 2. As planned, part 2 will start filming early this year and hit theaters in the summer of 2021. However, In a latest announcement, both sides announced their peaceful separation due to “disagreements over the creative process.”
​

Announcing fans on Twitter, Scott Derrickson said: “Marvel and I have agreed to stop collaborating on Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness due to creative disagreements. I really appreciate our partnership and will stay on as executive producer.”
​

​

Details of the dissent, Derrickson declined to provide at this time. The reason for “creative disagreement” is quite broad, it can be a conflict about the script, the style of the film, the cast or the size of the budget. As noted by The Hollywood Reporter earlier, the 53-year-old writer, director, and producer once posted a tweet with the content: “release date is the enemy of art” and in a comment he said he wanted more time to work on the work.

It’s also worth noting that when Derrickson directed 2016’s Doctor Strange, he still didn’t have a script for a sequel. In addition, at Comic-Con 2019 he also promised that Doctor Strange 2 will be the first horror film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, its story will be darker than anything we’ve seen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. MCU. So needing more creative time is completely understandable.
​

Doctor Strange 2 is scheduled to start filming in May 2020 and release in May 2021. In the short term, Derrickson’s departure will not have much impact on the film’s schedule, but if you want to ensure the release on schedule, urgently finding a replacement director is necessary for Marvel at this time.
