Despite set photos popping up online a few weeks ago, Marvel Studios has now announced that production has officially begun on the upcoming Doctor Strange and confirmed the film’s cast. Production on the film is currently set up in London with additional plans to shoot in New York and Hong Kong.

Marvel’s Doctor Strange is produced by Kevin Feige with Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Charles Newirth, Stephen Broussard and Stan Lee serving as executive producers.

Director Scott Derrickson’s creative team also includes director of photography Ben Davis, B.S.C.

Ant-Man Alternate Suit Designs

Marvel Studios' conceptual artist Andy Park has shared two alternate designs that he created for the Ant-Man suit. They're very different from the final design that was used in the film. These are incredibly cool designs, but I'm glad that they went with the design they ended up using in the film. It's going to be interesting to see the updated suit design that they use in Captain America: Civil War. Of course, we'll probably see another new suit design in Ant-Man and The Wasp as well. Marvel likes to update their superhero suits with every new film.
