2016 looks to be the year where the Marvel Cinematic Universe starts turning on its own head. In less than a month, we’ll have Captain America and Iron Man face off against each other for the future of superhero secrecy in Captain America: Civil War and to round out their year, Doctor Strange will be making his big screen debut with his own solo adventure.
Marvel released the film’s first trailer as part of Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night, which shows former surgeon Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) taking a dark, surreal and colourful trip into the grand world of magic and mysticism through the guidance and teachings of the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton). Take a look at it after the jump.
Pretty epic tease, right? With plenty of stunning visuals and psychedelic set-pieces at play, Doctor Strange is looking to continue expanding the universe (as well as set itself apart from the other superheroes within it) after nearly a decade in ways we never could have anticipated. I can’t wait to see more.
Directed by Scott Derrickson (Sinister, Deliver Us from Evil) from a script by Jon Spaiths (Prometheus, The Darkest Hour) and C. Robert Cargill (Sinister, Sinister 2), the film also stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Mads Mikkelsen, Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong, Michael Stuhlbarg, Scott Adkins and Amy Landecker.
Doctor Strange opens in theatres November 4th. You can see its first two posters below.
