Yes Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness was initially planned for a period approaching the 2h30, the feature film will be much shorter than announced. Still particularly mysterious, the feature film by Sam Raimi promises several great novelties in the universe Marvel namely: the expansion of the multiverse after its introduction into Spider-Man: No Way Homethe official introduction of Illuminati (Patrick Stewart confessed to being part of the film) and the official absence (at least in marketing)of a true antagonist.
In the end, this new opus of the adventures of Sorcerer Supreme will be shorter than advertised. The media Fandango announces that Doctor Strange 2 will have a duration of 2:06i.e. 22 minutes less than Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, the film is situated in the traditional furrow of Marvel.
