Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is almost here. A new report has seemingly confirmed the film’s runtime – and it looks like the sequel that promises to shake up the Marvel Cinematic Universe could be the shortest Phase 4 film so far.
Fandango has confirmed the movie’s runtime at just 2 hours and 6 minutes (126 minutes). This would make the film the shortest MCU outing since Captain Marvel back in 2019, which clocked in at 2 hours and 4 minutes.
There’s not long to wait before we find out exactly what’s going on in the new Doctor Strange movie as it’s released in the first week of May. The Sam Raimi-directed sequel brings back Benedict Cumberbatch in the title role.
The stars are keeping their cards close to their chest on what to expect but Cumberbatch recently dropped a delicious tease to Total Film. In our latest issue, he said: "It's going to be a completely mind-bending, thrilling ride. It really is. The title speaks for the experience of watching it, I believe, and certainly of making it. There was a lot of madness, a lot of multiverse, and a lot of Doctor Strange."
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is released on May 6. Check out our complete guide to Marvel’s Phase 4 upcoming releases and how to watch the Marvel movies in order.
