Disney’s Doctor Strange sequel has been delayed — again.  

The latest release delay is the sequel Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. This time, the film’s already new November 5, 2021 date, has been updated to March 25, 2022. 

Disney has had to do a complete reshuffle of its release calendar following theater closures and production shutdowns due to the Coronavirus.

Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange made his debut in 2016. He then appeared in Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. Cumberbatch will reprise his role alongside Benedict Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Elizabeth Olsen who starred in the original film. The co-star, Rachel McAdams, however, will not.
