Benedict Cumberbatch, the actor who plays Doctor Strange in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will be reunited with Tom Holland, in “Spider-Man 3”, reported the American press.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, ambos personajes ya había compartido pantalla en “Vengadores: Infinity War” Y “Vengadores: Endgame”, indicated the Spanish news agency Europa Press.

Cumberbatch's presence in the third solo film of the wall-crawler within the MCU implies that Strange could take the place of Tony Stark / Iron Man -the character of Robert Downey Jr.-, and Nick Fury - played by Samuel L. Jackson-, as mentor to young Peter Parker.

Teniendo en cuenta el título de la próxima película en solitario de Doctor Stange es “Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness”, Cumberbatch's addition appears to be a bridge to the Marvel multiverse, which will affect Spider-Man.

Directed by Jon Watts, “Spider-Man 3”, still without official title, is scheduled to begin filming this month in New York and Atlanta and its premiere is scheduled for the 17 from December to 2021.

Meanwhile, “Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness” también arrancará su rodaje este mes en Londres, directed by Sam Raimi, responsible for the first Spider-Man film trilogy. Its theatrical release is scheduled for March 2022.
