Doctor Strangedirector Scott Derrickson announced on Twitter that he and Marvel have parted ways.
The exact reason why Derrickson has left is unclear but Marvel has said that it is due to “creative differences.” Scott Derrickson was responsible for the first Doctor Strange movie in 2016 and was brought back for the sequel.
However, despite Derrickson dropping out as a director, he has not completely removed himself from the film entirely as he will stay on as an executive producer.
Marvel and I have mutually agreed to part ways on Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness due to creative differences. I am thankful for our collaboration and will remain on as EP.
Another statement was also released by Marvel themselves as the studio said, “Marvel Studios andScott Derricksonhave amicably parted ways onDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ due to creative differences, We remain grateful to Scott for his contributions to the MCU.”
This also isn’t the first time that a Marvel director has dropped out of a film only for another to take over the production. For example, Joss Whedon dropped out ofInfinity WarandEndgamewhich led to the Russo Brother’s taking over. Another example would be Edgar Wright dropping out of Ant-Man with Peyton Reed replacing him.

Hopefully, in the future, Marvel will choose a good director to replace Scott’s and, with him still being on as executive producer, it is likely he will be key in helping Marvel choose a successor.
However, as of right now, Marvel fans can only hope that the new director will makeDoctor strange 2a success by the time it hits theaters in 2022
