Benedict Cumberbatch (and His Cape) Will Reportedly Return For a Doctor Strange Sequel

-

It's been a little under two years since Doctor Strange premiered back in 2016, and since then, the space- and time-bending wizard has been up to quite a lot in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Following his epic fight with Dormammu in the Dark Dimension at the end of his film, Dr. Stephen Strange joins up with the Avengers to help stop Thanos in Infinity War, and . . . well , we all know how that worked out. With so many other high-profile titles swirling around the MCU, is a Doctor Strange sequel in our future?

According to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, absolutely yes.

The exec recently sat down with CinemaBlend at a press junket for Ant-Man and the Wasp, where he revealed the studio is already working on plans to bring Strange, as therefore actor Benedict Cumberbatch, back for a sequel.

"Sometimes it's where do those characters pop up? [Doctor] Strange, you know, whenever we do another Strange [movie], which we will do, it will be a number of years from the first Strange, and yet he's a very big part of Infinity War," Feige explained. "So it is just a good problem to have when you have too many beloved characters that people want to see more of, whilst keeping to our core belief that we need to keep exploring nuance and keep doing different types of things."

For fans of the first film, Feige's confirmation is definitely exciting. That being said, we're probably still going to have to wait until 2020 or later to see Strange - and the Cloak of Levitation - back in action.

-

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
