The Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase 2 Collection set (Amazon Exclusive For Marvel 'Phase Two' Box Set”) will include a featurette about what fans can expect to see from “Phase 3” films including Doctor Strange. In a clip from the featurette (which can be viewed at USAToday.com), director Scott Derrickson refers to the movie as “a mind-trip action film” and shared concept art that includes Benedict Cumberbatch donning the iconic red cape.
John Goodman has joined the cast for Luc Besson’s space opera Valerian, Variety is reporting. The actor will provide a voice for an alien character.
