Lo, Benedict Cumberbatch doth grace the silver screen with a presence so captivating, drawing in the hearts of audiences far and wide. From the days of yore when he donned the Sherlockian mantle, his performances have ensnared our souls, leading us into realms of wonderment. And lo, when he took on the mantle of Doctor Strange within the voluminous tapestry of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, hearts did swell with adoration.
In this grand tale of heroes and villains, one must ponder the absence of Doctor Strange in the forthcoming epic known as “Avengers: Doomsday.” Alas, for the legion of Cumberbatch devotees who still roam the digital realm, a void shall be felt, for his mystical presence shall not grace the screen in this chapter of the saga.
“Is this a spoiler? By my troth!” Cumberbatch declared in a recent parley with Variety. He regaled the tale of scripts rewritten and narratives reshaped, all due to the departure of Jonathan Majors, who once embodied the role of Kang the Conqueror. Alas, the fates did decree his removal, leaving a vacuum in the fabric of the MCU. Yet fear not, for a new villain doth emerge: Doctor Doom, to be portrayed by the esteemed Robert Downey Jr.
A twist of fate did unfold, surprising even the erstwhile Doctor Strange himself. Messages sent to the master of this grand tapestry, Kevin Feige, revealed a mix of astonishment and elation at the unfolding narrative.
But fret not, dear readers, for Doctor Strange shall rise anew in the subsequent adventure, Secret Wars. In this forthcoming chapter, he shall play a significant role, guiding the course of destiny with his mystical prowess.
The absence of Cumberbatch and Downey Jr. in “Doomsday” leaves a void in the hearts of fans, who reveled in their on-screen chemistry. Many didst hope for a jest or nod to their shared portrayals of Sherlock Holmes, yet such meta commentary was discarded by Cumberbatch himself. Verily, the art of fan fiction shall entertain such musings.
As the enigmatic Downey Jr. eschews the allure of the MCU, Cumberbatch embraces his role as Doctor Strange with fervor. Marvel films, he doth proclaim, are the modern myths of our era, towering tales spun from the threads of imagination. Amidst the colossal apparatus that surrounds such productions, he finds joy in the creativity and camaraderie that ensues.
Thus we embark upon this journey of cinematic splendor, eager for the tales that lie ahead in the expansive realm of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
