Kevin Feige Talks About DOCTOR STRANGE's Powers, Confirms Which Infinity Stone Will Appear

A lot of information about Doctor Strange has come out over the past couple of days, as Disney and Marvel try to keep fans interested in the MCU while Star Wars dominates the cultural discussion. The latest in the slow drip of info comes from Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige, who spoke with EW about the powers of the Sorcerer Supreme (Benedict Cumberbatch) in the upcoming film:

“He can do a whole host of things, eventually,” explains Feige, who is also the producer of Doctor Strange. “He does cast spells, which in the comics have very sort of tongue-twisty fun names. We don’t want to shy away from that, because that’s what makes Doctor Strange Doctor Strange. He has a Cloak of Levitation that allows him to fly, but he doesn’t fly like Superman or like Thor. It’s almost got a consciousness of its own, this cloak, which, again, gives us a superhero with a red cape — which we’ve seen a few times — but allows us to do it in a wholly unique and wholly original way. He can create these mandalas of light that he can use as shields and he can use as sort of weapons. He can create portalas that will open before your eyes that he can step through and go to other places around the world. And frankly, even in this film, we’ll only touch upon what a lot of his powers are.”

Feige also essentially confirmed which of the two remaining Infinity Stones we'll see in the movie:

“The Cloak of Levitation [and] the Eye of Agamotto are his two signature pieces,” says Feige. “In this film, the Eye is a very important relic that can be quite dangerous if used in the wrong hands, because it has the ability to do any number of things, the most dangerous of which is, it can sort of manipulate probabilities. Which is also another way of saying, ‘screw around with time’ — which is part of our story.”

That seems like the Eye of Agamotto is a lock for the Time stone, which will leave the Soul stone as the only remaining stone that hasn't been accounted for in the MCU thus far. Assuming Thanos acquires all of the stones to fill his gauntlet before Avengers: Infinity War — Part 1, that means the Soul stone will need to make an appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, or — my personal choice — the solo Spider-Man movie. Even though that's a Sony film, including the final Infinity Stone would be a great way to link that film to the MCU.

Doctor Strange arrives in theaters on November 4th, 2016.
