Welcome to another edition of our regular weekly feature Disney This Week here at ComingSoon.net, rounding up the latest news on all things Disney, including an exclusive interview with Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson, along with news on movies, TV, Blu-ray/DVD, Marvel Studios, theme parks, fan art and Disney history. Let us know what you like or want to see more out of in Disney This Week in the comments below! For the digital and home media release of the film, Marvel Studios and The Walt Disney Studios has released a new Doctor Strange featurette about the end tag where the Sorcerer Supreme meets the God of Thunder.
Doctor Strange is landing on Blu-ray soon, and per the Marvel usual, that means plenty of fun bonus features are already popping up online. We exclusively debuted a video chronicling the studio's quest to cast Benedict Cumberbatch , and we've also seen a deleted scene featuring Mads Mikkelsen 's big bad Kaecilius.
Ahead of the digital and home media release of the film, Marvel Studios and The Walt Disney Studios have released a new Doctor Strange featurette about the end tag where the Sorcerer Supreme meets the God of Thunder. Watch Doctor Strange and Thor meet in the player below, and read about the other special features included on the release by clicking here.
It turns out the God of Thunder meeting the Sorcerer Supreme was as charming behind-the-scenes as it as on the big screen. Benedict Cumberbatch and Chris Hemsworth are seen palling around in a featurette tied to Tuesday's Doctor Strange home entertainment release.
Kenneth Branagh's "Thor" remains one of the more underrated MCU properties, but even so we've yet to really see the God of Thunder get a dynamic solo film that can stand proud as one of Marvel Studios' best. The hiring of writer/director Taika Waititi for the third film "Thor: Ragnarok" has given many hope that we'll see that with the upcoming entry which debuts in November.
Although it's not entirely a surprise given the end-credits sequence of his own recent solo film, Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange is now confirmed to play a part in Marvel Studios ' upcoming Thor: Ragnarok . In a preview of what the company has to offer in 2017, Disney 's official fan club D23 highlights the Taika Waititi film with the following description: "Thor: Ragnarok in November brings together Thor, the Hulk, and Doctor Strange to face off against intergalactic baddies both familiar and new."
