In just over a month, Benedict Cumberbatch will don the stylish red cloak for Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange, bringing a little slice of magic to the MCU. But there is probably a lot of people out there who don’t know their Eye of Agamotto from their Kaecilius, so this handy little featurette has come our, fleshing out all the basics (as well as revealing new footage from the movie) we’ll need to know before the sorcerer supreme explodes onto our screens.
Released: 28th October (IRL/U.K.)/ 4th November (U.S.)
Synopsis: From Marvel comes “Doctor Strange,” the story of world-famous neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange whose life changes forever after a horrific car accident robs him of the use of his hands. When traditional medicine fails him, he is forced to look for healing, and hope, in an unlikely place—a mysterious enclave known as Kamar-Taj. He quickly learns that this is not just a center for healing but also the front line of a battle against unseen dark forces bent on destroying our reality. Before long Strange—armed with newly acquired magical powers—is forced to choose whether to return to his life of fortune and status or leave it all behind to defend the world as the most powerful sorcerer in existence.
