Strange Tales

Twitch is reporting that Marvel is moving ahead with plans for a film based on their Doctor Strange character.


Created in 1963 Doctor Strange tells the story of an arrogant surgeon who is injured in a car accident and goes on to become the Sorcerer Supreme of the universe. Using his magical powers Strange protects the earth from attacks from other realms.

Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer-the writing duo behind the August 19th remake of Conan the Barbarian have gotten their latest draft approved by the suits as they put together a list of potential directors whom they may want to call action on the film.

I think care must be taken though to find the right person for the job otherwise it could turn the material into a campy mess
