The Sorcerer Supreme may return sooner than we thought.
At FanExpo Vancouver, actor Benedict Wong (Deadly Class, Avengers: Infinity War), teased that he’s reprising his role as Wong for the untitled Doctor Strange sequel and that it will start production at the year’s end. Director Scott Derrickson has also been dropping hints that he may return to helm the next installment as well.
This is interesting news, as the only Marvel films currently on the release slate are Captain Marvel, the yet to be titled Avengers 4, and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Doctor Strange’s next appearance will most likely be in Avengers 4.

As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
Avengers: Infinity War is now on Digital and Blu-ray, while the Untitled Avengers 4 hits theaters on May 3rd, 2019.
