Following Marvel's announcement that "Doctor Strange" movie is going to happen, fans desire to find out details about the project has been firing up.
Since Benedict Cumberbatch's starring movie is slated for a Nov. 4, 2016 release date, it's expected that the crew is already gearing up for production.
According to the latest news from Comic Book, the team headed by director Scott Derrickson is going to start filming in November, while the rest of the team is already looking for a perfect New York location.
"I've been talking about it for a long, long, long, long time, as we talked about Guardians (of the Galaxy) for a long, long time before it happened, and we talked about The Avengers for a long, long time before it happened, Kevin Feige told MTV.
"(Director) Scott Derrickson and the producing team are on a scout right now, finishing a scout in New York City for certain buildings that Doctor Strange inhabits. They're on their way to London, where we'll be doing principal photography, starting in November. It's great. Benedict (Cumberbatch) has been on a bit of a whirlwind tour up until now, but we're so excited. We are as excited to have him as he is to be a part of this universe. It's always a nice combination."
Benedict Cumberbatch on the other hand, could not hide his excitement in bringing Stephen Strange to the big screen.
"Excited, really excited, you know," the 38-year-old English star said about "Doctor Strange" at the British Independent Film Awards as reported by Mirror.
"There's a lot of work to be done and I'm just at the beginning of it all so I'm not going to talk too much about it's a thrilling gig to get and I can't wait. Very excited."
Furthermore, Feige gladly expressed his confidence in Cumberbatch following announcement that the British star will portray the role of the Sorcerer Supreme.
"Stephen Strange's story requires an actor capable of great depth and sincerity," Feige said. "In 2016, Benedict will show audiences what makes Doctor Strange such a unique and compelling character."
And while plot details have been kept under wraps, Christian Today reported that Marvel's "Doctor Strange" movie would most likely feature the origin story of Stephen Strange.
The publication mentioned that Derrickson is slowly hinting details that "Doctor Strange" movie will indeed feature the origin story of the Sorcerer Supreme.
The latest is a photo on his Twitter by Brandon Peterson where the Sorcerer Supreme was scene in a gurney where his hands is covered in bandages with a caption "are you experienced?"
To further solidify the claim Feige's previous interview with Screen Rant showed how Marvel is looking into showing the origin story of "Doctor Strange" to be portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch.
"With Strange, it is a classic Marvel origin story because he's got one of the best origins ever," he explained.
"And it's our opportunity to take that left turn into the supernatural. Now, what is the definition of supernatural? It varies. We like the idea of playing with alternate dimensions. The very sort of crazy - [Steve] Ditko crazy acid trip way of traveling through dimensions and traveling through other realms is something that we think is very, very cool ... playing with the perceptions of reality."
