Rumors about Tobey Maguire in Doctor Strange 2 are getting louder, but now there’s been a major twist in the news.
Some days ago, The SRP Report I affirm that Tobey Maguire would not appear in Doc Strange 2. The actor we saw return to Marvel Studios in Spider-Man: No Way Home he would not be in the long-awaited sequel to the Sorcerer Supreme nor would he be reunited with his beloved and cherished sam raimi. This information from The SRP Report has been corroborated by With Great Power Book with a categorical: “This has never been true.” The absence of the interpreter seems to be more than confirmed, in that sense. The rumors are denied suddenly and with a blow with this new information.

This was never true. https://t.co/n0gRNRx0b0
When asked if Sam Raimi could not direct Tobey Maguire after Spider-Man: No Way Home and in Doc Strange 2, With Great Power Book brought up the fact that the Sorcerer Supreme sequel was originally scheduled to be released before the end of the spider trilogy. “The presence of the veteran actor would not have made sense,” they said. “For a long time, ‘Doctor Strange 2’ was supposed to come out before ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home.’ Including Tobey Maguire wouldn’t have made a lot of sense during the writing and filming.”
How true is all this spider information?
The Twitter account for With Great Power Book is run by Sean O’Connell, a journalist for Cinemablend. It is created to spread his next book of spider-manentitled With Great Power. Sean O’Connell was an incredible source of spidery news related to the release of Spider-Man: No Way Homeso we could heed this Tobey Maguire thing on Doc Strange 2.
While it’s true that having Sam Raimi direct Tobey Maguire would be historic again, it’s hard to see how the return of this Spider-Man would play a relevant or significant role in Doc Strange 2. It bears little relation to the Sorcerer Supreme or Scarlet Witch. However, she would work perfectly as a cameo after visiting one of the many alternate universes.
