Doctor Strange Director Says A Sequel Would Allow More Time To Go Deep On A Villain
Marvel's villains have been pretty hit or miss up to this point. Loki stands quite a cut above the rest, and it is something every ensuing film has to try and solve.
It seems Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson has some thoughts on that. Speaking to Den of Geek, the director said a sequel for the film would likely take a lot of time to go deep with the villain.
What made The Dark Knight so great was that the origin story of Batman had been well-told, and then it was time to bring in a villain where you really got to go deep. And not just the Joker, also Two-Face. It was a more visceral experience, I'd love to be able to do that for Doctor Strange.
It's worth noting, I caught the film tonight, and Mads Mikkelsen's Kaeciliushas has a pretty good go of it, making him one of the better villains in the MCU. However, villain work is laid down for the sequel(s), and it is easy to see how the director could go deep in the next one. Let's hope he nails it.
