Benedict Cumberbatch says talks for a third Doctor Strange film are well underway
Benedict Cumberbatch has confirmed that discussions about a next Doctor Strange movie are well underway at Marvel Studios, according to a report carried by IMDb. The actor's comment places a third film in the Doctor Strange series in active discussion, rather than presenting it as a project with a finished announcement, a release date, or production details already set out.
That distinction matters for where the project stands. Talks being well underway is a meaningful update from the performer who leads the series, but the material available here does not include an official Marvel Studios production announcement, a title beyond the working idea of a third film, or any word on timing. It also contains no story information, and none is reported here.
For now, the confirmed point is the status of the conversation itself: Cumberbatch says discussions for another Doctor Strange movie are progressing at Marvel Studios. Any further steps, including a formal announcement, casting, or a place on the release schedule, will need to come from the studio.
