New ‘Doctor Strange’ Movie and ‘Star Trek’ Show Premiere

This weekend the anticipated "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" is hitting theaters as well as the brand new "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" on Paramount+.

Fun 107's very own movie review guru Kevin Carr from "Fat Guys at the Movies" introduced the latest marvel movie Friday morning, explaining how the main protagonist, Doctor Strange, faces the rupturing of the multiverse and how it begins to spill out into our world.

Strange helps a girl who is able to travel through the multiverse and works toward getting her back where she needs to be.

Directed by Sam Raimi, remembered for directing the original "Spiderman" movies, "The Evil Dead" and "Darkman," is known for his movies being bizarre as well as for some horror, all of which the new movie contains.

"Doctor Strange goes and does some really interesting things, and its completely bonkers and off the walls... Overall its a fun movie, its out there, and it takes Marvel to a whole new level."  -- Kevin Carr

The much-anticipated Marvel movie stars returning actor Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange, alongside notable actors such as Elizabeth Olsen, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, Michael Stuhlbarg and Rachel McAdams.
