Xochitl Gomez & Benedict Wong on Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

With director Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness opening in theaters around the world this weekend, I recently got to speak with Benedict Wong and Xochitl Gomez (America Chavez) about making the highly anticipated sequel. During the brief but fun interview, they talked about what Marvel fans would be surprised to learn about the making of an MCU movie, what it was like filming the opening action sequence, how America Chavez’s powers compare to the comics, what it was like working with Sam Raimi, and when Wong realized fans loved his character. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness also stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Rachel McAdams as Dr. Christine Palmer, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Karl Mordo, and Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch.
