Leonardo DiCaprio Reportedly In Talks For Doctor Strange 2 Role

So much of the speculation surrounding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been directed towards Spider-Man 3, with almost everyone to have even made eye contact with Peter Parker in a previous movie having been linked with a return, that a lot of people might not even be aware Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has been filming for almost a month.

Not only did cameras start rolling at Pinewood Studios towards the end of November, but Elizabeth Olsen jetted across the Atlantic almost as soon as WandaVision wrapped while Benedict Cumberbatch remains Stateside, with the title hero not reporting for duty until after he’s finished his scenes on Spider-Man 3 and then presumably endures the mandatory quarantine period upon re-entering the United Kingdom.

So many names have been rumored in conjunction with Spider-Man 3 that it would be easy to forget Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness provides even more scope for surprise cameos given both the title and the very nature of the movie itself, not to mention the fact Kevin Feige will be keen to establish his multiverse as the one to beat, especially with the DCEU’s The Flash not releasing until eight months after the Sorcerer Supreme returns.

Insider Daniel Richtman is claiming that Leonardo DiCaprio has held talks with Marvel about appearing as a version of Spider-Man from another Earth, but offers no further details. Of course, the 46 year-old was in contention to play the web-slinger for James Cameron a quarter of a century ago, and while it seems very unlikely he’d sign on for a bit part role, as a severely underrated comic talent it would be hilarious to see DiCaprio as someone similar to Jake Johnson’s burnout version of Peter Parker from Into the Spider-Verse.
