MANILA – "Doctor Strange 2" is happening.

This was confirmed by Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige in an interview with CinemaBlend published Friday (Manila time).

"[Doctor] 'Strange,' you know, whenever we do another 'Strange' one, which we will do, it will be a number of years from the first 'Strange,' and yet he's a very big part of [Avengers:] Infinity War," Feige said. 

"So it is just a good problem to have when you have too many beloved characters that people want to see more of, whilst keeping to our core belief that we need to keep exploring nuance and keep doing different types of things."

Feige went on to stress that making a movie takes time, saying it is all about scheduling and patience.

"How many years between movies can you have? You know, '[Thor:] Ragnarok' was four years. There's four years between, right? He had an appearance in between there. So that seems to be maybe okay. Sometimes, though, you want it to be less. Sometimes, it can be more," he said.

The first installment of "Doctor Strange" was released in 2016. 

Since then, the character portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch has appeared in various Marvel films.
