Variety: Scott Derrickson out as director of "Doctor Strange 2" due to creative differences
- Thread starter Serene
- Start date
You stop that lol THe guy directs a movie once every 3-4 years.
Yeah he's known for his punctuality and willingness to bend to studio whims
it's time to let him loose and gain prestige
get a large chunk of noms for the oscars
Oh no Scott what are you doing, the belt is set to automatic, all you had to do was sit there and watch. Stop trying to be a creative.
This hurts me.Ah that sucks!
FUCK. This will never happen but it'd be amazing.
Yeah between Shazam and that Netflix horror film Sandberg is completely booked.
He has a good relationship with Searchlight. Maybe they can give him a bigger deal, after a MCU film lol
As he should. Feige is the MCU. I'll trust him and his team to find a replacement.
Marvel hasn't had an issue like this in years (think the last time was Edgar Wright leaving Ant-Man in 2014?), weird to see this happen again.
tbh I thought Dr. Strange was one of the weakest Marvel films of the last 5 years and I was never crazy about Derrickson as a director so there's potential for an upgrade here. Guess we'll see.

they pretty much come as a pair these days
if one directs, the other will produce or work on the script
it's clear they don't want director's with a terrible amount of creative control. this happened w/ ant man as well.
I mean has he been wrong yet? He is the cinema version of Dan Slott
Bunch of confirmation bias in here.
Wasn't a big fan of Derrickson as a director, so I think there's room for an improvement.

eh, I don't think that's super fair considering a guy like Gunn has a ton of sway and control over his stuff
I think it varies on how much trust they have in the given director
Even if I didn't love the first movie, I was looking forward to a sequel that actually let the director loose. The two best sequences were some of the best things I've seen in a long time, so I had a lot of hope.
A lot of Marvel's creative difference disputes happened under Ike Pearlmutter though. Since the directors working with Marvel have been talking about their positive relationships with the studio and down. That's what's so odd about this, it's the first time a director has left while Feige has been totally at the helm.
Filmmaking is also about compromising, even if you have full creative control. Derrickson is well aware of all that, as are all directors. There was probably something much bigger than a release date creating tension. Could be a lot of things really, especially this close to production. Sometimes the pressure just gets to people.
I mean this is nothing compared to the Guardians 3 situation. Directors leave projects all the time, just that Derrickson and Feige's individual divergent statements kinda starts to paint a picture.
As would Rian Johnson, Del Toro, Cuaron, and Villenueve
Especially on something as pedestrian as a Marvel movie
I love how Taiki is now a household name after doing Thor Ragnarok, They did the same with James Gunn. Who is the next under the radar director to blow up?
