Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has become 2022's highest-grossing movie at the box office so far, surpassing Matt Reeves' The Batman. The Sam Raimi-helmed sequel saw the return of original film stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Benedict Wong, and Rachel McAdams. They were joined by Elizabeth Olsen and Marvel Cinematic Universe newcomer Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez. Reeves' fresh take on the Caped Crusader saw Robert Pattinson star as the iconic hero.
Coming after the multiverse-opening Spider-Man: No Way Home, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness follows the MCU's resident Master of the Mystic Arts as he is drawn into an adventure across different universes. Taking the young hero America Chavez under his protection, Strange is forced to face fallen friends, twisted versions of himself, and new-yet-familiar versions of some of Marvel's most beloved characters.
The sequel's performance is promising to Marvel Studios, whose releases made up 30% of 2021's box-office takings as theaters gradually reopened following closures throughout the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
While Reeves and Pattinson's future with The Batman is already guaranteed following the announcement of a sequel, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is a promising sign of Marvel Studios' 2022 financial success, as audiences become more confident in returning to the theaters.
Come on it`s a marvel film, is that so strange? 😂
Because The Batman was abysmal.
Dont compare this garbage to the batman.
Is beating a DC movie really a good measurement of success though?
