SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME Won't Feature A Doctor Strange Cameo; Will Have More Humor

We know that Spider-Man: Far From Home will begin "minutes" after the events of Avengers 4, and at least some of the story has been confirmed to take place in London.

As tenuously connected to Doctor Strange as those things may be, they did lead to some speculation that The Sorcerer Supreme might show his face in the Spidey sequel.

Well, he won't.

Although Kevin Feige usually plays coy when asked about specific characters potentially appearing in The MCU, on this occasion he straight-up confirmed that we will not be seeing a Doctor Strange cameo in Far From Home.

Here's the Marvel head honcho's exchange with /Film:


Peter: I’m wondering ’cause London there is a sanctum there. Is Doctor Strange gonna be the one in this one?

Kevin: No. Peter: No?

Kevin: I could be coy about it but no.

Peter: (shocked that he gave a direct response) Okay.

Kevin: I don’t wanna get people excited. But Benedict and Holland have liked the idea of working together.

In a separate interview with THR, the film's editor Dan Lebental - who also worked on Ant-Man and The Wasp - was asked if he could share anything on the follow-up to Spider-Man: Homecoming. Lebantal didn't say much, but he did reveal that the sequel would be "both grander in scale and even funnier than the last one."

Spider-Man: Far From Home swings into theaters exactly a year from now on July 5, 2019.

First one was great. I don’t know why some people are kind of down on it.

@Supercat6376 - It was a good movie. Just didn’t feel like a Spiderman movie to me.

@BreakTheCode - I think because they made him feel more like a kid than any of the movies before it. Tobey and Andrew never made me feel like they were in high school.

"It's going to be funnier than the first one." Well, if it makes me laugh just one time, then I suppose it COULD be funnier than the first one. Sometimes it felt like they went to the Austin Powers school of running a joke through the ground so much that it becomes unfunny. And here's a pro tip...don't write the script like you're obviously trying for laughs. The only reason the GotG movies worked is because they had people with natural comedic timing. Well, the first one. The second one, just like Spidey and Ragnarok, felt like they were trying WAY too hard to be funny. I could almost feel the Grandmaster holding up a sign that said "Laugh, I'm funny."
