It was an enormous shock after we discovered that Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson wasn’t going to be directing the sequel, Doctor Strange within the Multiverse of Madness. The cause why he left was as a result of his imaginative and prescient for the story was a lot completely different than the one which Marvel Studios needed to inform.
During a latest episode of The Playlist’s The Discourse podcast, Derrickson talked concerning the inventive variations and the way that finally induced him to stroll away from the sequel. He defined:
“All I can say is that what we said publicly is exactly the truth. We had real creative differences. You know, the movie I wanted to make and how I wanted to make it was different than–it was just increasingly obvious that we were pulling against each other. And that’s how you make a really bad movie, I think. When the producer or the studio and the filmmaker are making different movies, you end up with a monstrosity and, you know, that’s why I had to bounce.”
While it sucked to see him go, I don’t blame him for stepping away from the venture. He’s proper, the film would’ve suffered with the 2 sides of the inventive pressure wanting two various things. In the tip, Sam Raimi ended up changing him and took the movie in a course that Marvel Studios was clearly proud of. Ultimately, I appreciated what Raimi delivered! I like that the film leaned into the horror facet of the story. It was a reasonably wild film!
Derrickson was hooked up to direct Doctor Strange within the Multiverse of Madness when the sequel was initially introduced he beforehand mentioned that he needed to incorporate Nightmare within the movie and supposed to make use of the villainous character to discover the Nightmare Realm, which additionally would’ve been actually cool and attention-grabbing. Marvel, on the opposite hand, needed to play extra with the entire multiverse facet of the universe.
Derrickson went on to say that his model of Doctor Strange 2 would have been an “extreme departure from the first film” and would have been a “genuine horror film of sorts.”
