Master of the Mystic Arts, Dr Strange could be the next Marvel hero to hit the big screen


MTV have some news on the next Marvel character that could be heading to the big screen - the Sorcerer Supreme, Dr Strange.

[Dr Strange] is very much at the top of the list for a post "Avengers" make-over, Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige told MTV News.

"Very much so," Feige said. "I’d say in the next year, year and a half, as we start putting together our film slate for 2012 and 2013, I would not be shocked if we saw Dr. Strange on those lists. I love the idea of taping into the magical realm of the Marvel Universe, which is fairly significant and hasn’t yet seen life on screen.

"It’s something I’m very, very interested in," he emphasized.

When asked about the fact Dr Strange is not that well known out of the comic community Feige had this to say.

"Ha!" Feige laughed. "I remember two years ago at Comic Con the cover of the ‘LA Times Calendar Section,’ read ‘Marvel calls out the B team’ and there was a picture of Iron Man. We don’t look at them as ‘B team.’ Dr. Strange? This is one of the best characters we have. [He represents] this amazing cosmic universe to Marvel that we haven’t played with in films yet and I think could be amazing to play with."
What do you think of that news? Who could play the surgeon turned sorcerer?
