Bendedict Cumberbatch and Marvel have been playing their cards SO CLOSE to their chests over the fate of Doctor Stephen Strange.
Like… he is the reason that half the universe was wiped out of existence with a snap of his Thanos fingers (he himself was a casualty).
However, it seems that the good doctor will be returning to the big screen, Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige confirmed a sequel starring Benedict will be happening.
Definitively stating that the Disney-owned studio will be taking the Sorcerer Supreme for another spin on the big screen, the 45-year-old producer did say that it may take some time for it to arrive.
Sometimes its where do those characters pop up? [Doctor] Strange, you know, whenever we do another Strange [movie], which we will do, it will be a number of years from the first Strange, and yet hes a very big part of Infinity War, he told Cinemablend.

Explaining why there could be quite the wait before we see him again, Kevin added: Its just a good problem to have when you have too many beloved characters that people want to see more of, whilst keeping to our core belief that we need to keep exploring nuance and keep doing different types of things.
