Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness wouldn’t have been what it was today if Kevin Feige wasn’t willing to push the shooting schedule for Doctor Strange back six months. This cast is full of fun, weird, and ridiculous stories about how they came into their roles. Benedict Cumberbatch just thought the personality of Doctor Strange was awful and it took a lot of negotiating for him to even consider the part. Elizabeth Olsen had the most intense audition process - tea with Joss Whedon. (That might be a joke - how can you be tense while drinking tea? It’s like an oxymoron). Xochitl Gomez’s audition process was tense and she didn’t get any tea. She had to fly to England to test for the part. We wonder if they had any others doing a screen test and if they were compensated for it because that’s an expensive audition! You won’t believe what movie inspired Chiwetel Ejiofor to want to join the MCU. Benedict Wong wanted the part for one reason and one reason only: Wong for Wong!!! One of Wanda’s children, Tommy, was played by Jett Klyne. His family may not have traveled to England to audition for WandaVision, but they put enough mileage on the vehicles they could have gone there and back fifty times. The most veteran actor, Patrick Stewart discovered he had a comic doppelgänger. We’re also taking a look at some of the contenders for Doctor Strange. They may not have landed the role of the sorcerer but they did land other Marvel and DC roles down the line. Check out the video if you’re wanting to hear more!
