Dr. Strange Gets a Sinister Director
 |
Literally.
Scott Derrickson, director of Sinister, will be directing the Sorcerer Supreme onscreen. This is the first time Marvel has gotten a flat-out horror director on board, which should be interesting. He’d be great for a Ghost Rider reboot.
I just hope it’s more Sinister (which I liked a lot) than The Exorcism of Emily Rose (which I did not). Considering Kevin Feige is on record as saying Strange is his favorite Marvel character, there’ll be a lot of pressure.
I wouldn’t even necessarily mind Ethan Hawke getting the lead role. You?
