Marvel will be hoping for yet another hit with November's Doctor Strange, the final comic book movie in what has been a hit-and-miss 2016 for the genre. Star Trek Into Darkness star Benedict Cumberbatch plays surgeon turned sorcerer in horror director Scott Derrickson's origin story. The first two mind-bending trailers for the film have promised something truly different from Marvel Studio's fourteenth offering as the MCU explores magic for the first time.
To promote the upcoming release, Total Film's latest issue not only features Cumberbatch casting an iconic hand spell on the cover as it will also feature exclusive details from the hotly anticipated release. Joining Dcotor Strange in the magazine, is a host of upcoming comic book movies including Black Panther and Justice League, as you can see on the cover image below.
