#50: Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness Review

This week on Capes and Tights, Justin Soderberg and Adam Morrisette breakdown the latest addition the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness.

The Doctor Strange sequel hit theaters on May 6, 2022 and amassed $947 million in the box office before heading to Disney+ for streaming on June 22. The budget for the film was $200 million.

Doctor Strange 2 was directed by Sam Raimi (Spider-Man, The Evil Dead) and penned by Michael Waldron (Loki, Rick and Morty). Benedict Cumberbatch returned as Dr. Stephen Strange, joined by Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch; Chiwetel Ejiofor as Karl Mordo; Benedict Wong as Wong; Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez; Michael Stuhlbarg as Nicodemus West; and Rachel McAdams as Christine Palmer. Additionally, Patrick Stewart as Professor Charles Xavier; Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter / Captain Carter; Lashana Lynch as Maria Rambeau / Captain Marvel; Anson Mount as Blackagar Boltagon / Black Bolt; and John Krasinski as the Fantastic Four’s Reed Richards all had smaller roles.

Multiverse of Madness was the first major MCU film to reference a Disney+ television show when Olsen reference the events of WandaVision. The Doctor Strange sequel marked the 28th film in the MCU and was the fifth film in Phase 4.

The main success in the Multiverse of Madness comes in the performances of Olsen, Cumberbatch, and Gomez. The madness we all expected wasn’t there, but it was great to see some fun multiversal characters we didn’t have to have a connection too. This movie is the launching pad for what’s next to come and the rewatch in a few years will make it even better than it is already.
