Doctor Strange Almost Featured Stan Lee's Funniest Cameo

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Marvel’s reality-distorting origin story, Doctor Strange. The movie brought fans into the world of the mystic arts and is one of the last traditional origin stories of the MCU. There were certain things that a comic book lover could expect in a new MCU blockbuster, including a delightful cameo by the grand master of the comic books himself, Stan Lee.Sadly, those days are no more, and Doctor Strange represents one of the last times that the one-time face of the company made a starry on-screen appearance. While Stan Lee’s appearance in Scott Derrickson’s superhero smash hit is winning enough, James Gunn revealed that there was an alternate timeline in which Marvel fans were treated to what would’ve been the funniest cameo ever in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. During the world-bending, action-packed climax of this 2016 blockbuster, Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his mentor, Karl Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor), are thrown for a literal loop by the sinister antagonist, Kaecilius (Mads Mikkelsen), and pressed against the windows of a neighboring bus. From the perspective of the public transit vehicle, audiences watch Doctor Strange and his fellow Master of Mystic Arts as an elderly rider, played by Stan Lee, laughs wildly to himself. He is absorbed in Aldous Huxley’s The Doors of Perception and pleasantly unaware of the magic around him. It is a quick, pointed, and amusing little cameo, and one that was nevertheless guaranteed to earn rapturous applause from the crowd.
