Until yesterday, Marvel almost locked the ‘Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness’ director, Sam Raimi for the upcoming ‘Avengers 6’. Sadly the project has temporarily hit a pause, along with ‘Deadpool 3’, ‘Fantastic Four’, and ‘Blade’ due to the ongoing writers’ strike, which has caused huge financial losses to many production companies.
‘Avengers: Secret War’ will wrap up the Multiverse saga, which was first introduced in ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ and further set its base in Loki, when the Tom Hiddleston starred series introduced the next big baddie, Kang. Initially, Sam Raimi was been considered for directing the ‘Secret Wars’, but now the plans seem to have changed.
