Hollywood screenwriter Michael Waldron's work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been a smooth one. First, he joined the cast of Rocky's writers, and then he was taken to Doctor Strange 2 to write the screenplay for the film.
When it comes to Doctor Strange 2, we all know it's a film directed by Sam Remy. Speaking about Sam Remy, Michael Waldron revealed that he had a great time working with director Sam Remy. With the release of the Rocky TV series, Michael Waldron also talked about his feelings about joining Doctor Strange 2 when promoting the show.
Asked how Doctor Strange 2 was different from Rocky, Michael Waldron replied, "Yeah, I mean, oh my God, it's been a weird year for everyone. I was preparing to go to Atlanta to shoot Rocky, but I was attracted to Doctor Strange 2 and started working with Sam Remy. So I spent all my time with Sam Remy. I wanted to make a movie, and that was great. Then I spent five months in London at my busiest time, watching Doctor Strange 2 shoot. Yes, it was amazing. Going straight from Rocky to Doctor Strange 2 was really interesting. It's a completely different thing, you know that making a villain is different than making a superhero movie. It feels good and feels like I can work out my different muscles. Then on set with Sam Remy, there's nothing cooler than that. ”
It's worth mentioning that Doctor Strange 2 was originally directed by Scott Drixson. Given his disagreements with Marvel, coupled with Marvel's intention to include elements of horror films in the film, this made Sam Remy the director of the film. Because Sam Remy has not only directed the Spider-Man trilogy, he has also directed a lot of horror movies. It's fair to say that Sam Remy is a very reliable director, and I'm sure that's why Michael Waldron is so excited to work with Sam Remy. This is a very rare opportunity.
Of course, Michael Waldron was able to join Marvel, which proves that he is a very good screenwriter in Hollywood. Asked about whether his past background as a comedy screenwriter would help him enter the dark world of Doctor Strange 2, the screenwriter replied: "Comedy is helpful because if nothing else, it's rhythm. I think the rhythm of comedy is somewhat similar to the rhythm of a thriller. Sam Remy loves to work faster, and that's a lot I've learned from Rick and Morty, from Rocky. So our feelings are very compatible. ”
It sounds like Sam Remy and Michael Waldron are a great pair. So it's interesting to see how they work together in Doctor Strange 2. In fact, apart from knowing that Doctor Strange will travel to a new place in this movie, we still don't know anything about the specific movie plot. Either way, the film will also include The Crimson Witch played by Elizabeth Olson. It is said that Loki will also join the drama group. Overall, Doctor Strange 2 is a very fortunate thing for this superhero to have such a great director and screenwriter.
