I et interview med Empire, fortæller Guillermo Del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy) om muligheden for en Dr. Strange-film:
“I talked with Neil Gaiman [about writing it],” he tells us. “I said, that’s an interesting character because you can definitely make him more in the pulpy occult detective/magician mould and formula than was done in the Weird Tales, for example…the idea of a character that really dabbles in the occult in a way that’s not X-Filey, where the supernatural is taken for granted. That’s interesting…But I wouldn’t use the suit!”
Det er næsten i kategorien “for godt til at være sandt” – Gaimans version af Dr. Strange i 1602 giver mig en god fornemmelse omkring projektet, og Del Toro er et godt valg som instruktør. Men lad os nu se om han har tid ved siden af sine andre projekter som The Hobbit og At the Mountains of Madness.
