Scott Derrickson has teased plans for a second Doctor Strange film even though a sequel has yet to be greenlit by Marvel Studios.

Speaking to Den of Geek, the director revealed his love for the character saying there is “so much progress to be made“.

I love the character, I love the visual possibilities, and I know the comics so well. [The first movie is] the tip of an iceberg,” he added.

Whilst not revealing any specifics given that a second film has yet to be confirmed, Derrickson hinted at introducing a great villain to progress the story aka The Dark Knight.

What made The Dark Knight so great was that the origin story of Batman had been well-told, and then it was time to bring in a villain where you really got to go deep,” he continued. “And not just the Joker, also Two-Face. It was a more visceral experience, I’d love to be able to do that for Doctor Strange.”

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
