Doctor Strange star Benedict Cumberbatch recently revealed that he will be starring in the upcoming film Avengers 5. He also gave a sneak peak about when production on the film would start. " We have had a very good relationship with (Marvel) since I joined. I am really looking forward to next year's Avengers (5), which is being prepared with great enthusiasm," said Benedict Cumberbatch, quoted from Collider on Sunday June 23, 2024.
The film's production schedule is scheduled to begin in 2025. Although Marvel is known for its confidentiality policy, as recently revealed by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, it is likely that more information regarding the plot and cast will be revealed closer to production.
The presence of Doctor Strange on this team is the right decision. Stephen Strange hasn't appeared since the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but his role in Phase 4 is crucial, not only for his character in the MCU, but also for the Multiverse Saga as a whole.
Benedict Cumberbatch's final appearance provided a great opportunity for Doctor Strange to better understand the concept of the multiverse, which helped him explore and understand alternate realities better. After Marvel fired Jonathan Majors, information regarding the development of the film Avengers: Kang Dynasty began to blur.
It is not yet certain whether Marvel will choose to continue using Kang with a new actor or introduce a new villain character in the story. The film is currently searching for a director after initially contacting Daniel Destin Cretton, director of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings , but he decided to step away from the project last year. Recently, Marvel was reportedly interested in recruiting Shawn Levy to direct Avengers 5.
Shawn Levy had refused because his schedule was so busy. However, Marvel is still considering Levy to direct Avengers 5, depending on the success of his other projects and his ability to manage schedules. Avengers 5 will be released on May 1, 2026, less than two years away. This film is highly anticipated by Marvel fans and is expected to present exciting action and stories like the previous films.
