Once Marvel have gotten CAPTAIN AMERICA, THOR and the eventual AVENGERS team-up on the big screen it will be time for them to look deeper into their universes and find characters who may not be so well known, even with the general comic book audience, to flesh out their tentpoles. This would include characters such as DR. STRANGE, the master of the mystic arts who Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige told MTV News who would expect the character to be a huge contender for a Summer tentpole movie in the upcoming years…
“I’d say in the next year, year and a half, as we start putting together our film slate for 2012 and 2013, I would not be shocked if we saw Dr. Strange on those lists. I love the idea of taping into the magical realm of the Marvel Universe, which is fairly significant and hasn’t yet seen life on screen….It’s something I’m very, very interested in,”
He continues, answering critics who claim DR. STRANGE is a B-class character…
I remember two years ago at Comic Con the cover of the ‘LA Times Calendar Section,’ read ‘Marvel calls out the B team’ and there was a picture of Iron Man. We don’t look at them as ‘B team.’ Dr. Strange? This is one of the best characters we have. [He represents] this amazing cosmic universe to Marvel that we haven’t played with in films yet and I think could be amazing to play with.”
