We reported a while back that Marvel were working on bringing their Master of the Mystic Arts, Stephen Strange, to the big screen with Patrick Dempsey in the lead role.
But since then, gossip about the project has gone cold.
Until now.
Word is that the screenplay for the film has now been completed by Thomas Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer, who penned Conan and Sahara, and the search is on for a director.
But those hoping for a big budget production in the vein of Captain America, Thor and Iron Man will be disappointed. Doctor Strange will be a lower budget production, compared to Marvel's recent big screen efforts, and McDreamy fans may also face upset - as whether Dempsey is still in the running remains to be seen.
A release date as early as 2013 has been mooted, we'll keep you posted.
