In quite possibly the most obvious bit of ‘wait, this wasn’t officially confirmed?’ news of all time, Disney have finally (accidentally?) revealed that, yup, the doctor is in: Doctor Strange will be in Thor: Ragnarok. I know, right? I’m as surprised as you are.

D23, Disney’s official fan club, revealed the following in their ‘Things We’re Most Excited for in 2017’ gush-a-thon: “Thor: Ragnarok in November brings together Thor, the Hulk, and Doctor Strange to face off against intergalactic baddies both familiar and new.”

Thor last made an appearance, funnily enough, in the post-credits scene for Doctor Strange asking for a helping hand locating his half-brother Loki. It looks like the heroes will drape their capes on their super-powered backs for an almighty team-up to bring the god of mischief kicking and screaming back to Asgard.

Senior Entertainment Writer

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
