Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the latest movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and one of the headlines of the 2022 summer blockbuster season, is here. But how can you watch Benedict Cumberbatch’s latest adventure as in the MCU?

Though we’ve seen Doctor Strange a bunch in Marvel movies over the years, Multiverse of Madness is his first solo outing since 2016’s Doctor Strange. With it, as What to Watch’s review highlights, Marvel is embracing horror elements for the first time, thanks in large part to director Sam Raimi.
