At one detail , when it was still to be orchestrate by Scott Derrickson , the film maker behind the firstDoctor Strangeand repulsion films likeSinister , Doctor Strange 2was intended to be the MCU ’s first shuddery picture . The studio backed off that stance and Derrickson finally will the undertaking due to originative difference of opinion , but the suggestion has continued to stick with it under Raimi ’s stewardship , given his account with theEvil Deadfranchise .

Now , the Marvel movie ’s officialMPArating put up new grounds pointing in that direction . Unsurprisingly for the family - friendly franchise , Doctor Strange 2has been rated PG-13 , but the verbal description claim this is due to " intense chronological sequence of wildness and activity , horrendous image and some spoken language . " While superhero movies are no stranger to force and activity , singling out frightening epitome suggests that some sequences do indeed slant on Raimi ’s past times as a revulsion film producer .
While Marvel Studios would have to get a circumstances braver to make a true repugnance movie , thereby shrivel that task ’s intended interview away from their billion - dollar - blockbuster norm , Raimi is an inspired choice to push some experimentation withscares inDoctor Strange 2 . While hisEvil Deadfilms have some harrowing moments , they also cultivate a intermixture of horror and silliness that , when tilted further in the latter direction , could bring home the bacon the right-hand level of rush - drive frights for a superhero story . His style certainly seems a more rude fit than Derrickson ’s , whose horror projects delve much deeper into straight darkness than would be palatable to a mainstream viewership .
Indeed , 2004’sSpider - Man 2could provide sports fan with a good reference for what to expect fromDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . Whilenot a repugnance movie , the Doctor Octopus hospital vista has often been championed as a perfectly executed chilling sequence , and remains one of the dear film ’s most memorable moments . Doctor Strange 2looks to slant much more heavy on puppet imagery , but if Raimi pitch one or two scenes as fearsome as that one , revulsion rooter should leave the theater satisfied .
