Sam Raimi in Talks for Doctor Strange 3

Sam Raimi is reportedly close to finalizing a deal to direct 'Doctor Strange 3', following his previous work on 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness', which earned over $955 million. Although the plot details remain under wraps, the film is expected to continue from the cliffhanger where Doctor Strange teams up with Clea to address impending incursions. Marvel has not officially announced the film, but insiders suggest a potential 2027 release, positioning it between 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars'. Raimi's return has generated excitement among fans, though his last outing was met with mixed reviews despite its box office success. Additionally, there are whispers of Raimi's interest in a fourth 'Spider-Man' film, although he has stated that a compelling story would be necessary for that project. As Raimi navigates these opportunities, fans eagerly await news on both the next Doctor Strange installment and any potential return to the Spider-Man franchise.
