Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) is set to play the villain in Marvel’s upcoming Doctor Strange movie, according to Deadline. He will play Baron Mordo, and according to the source, “Although he’s an enemy in the comics, don’t look for him to be necessarily a completely villainous character. Rather, he’s an amalgamation of characters culled from Doctor Strange‘s mythology.”

This follows the recent news that Marvel reportedly wants to cast Tilda Swinton in the movie as the Ancient One, another change that the film version is making, as the character was a Tibetan male sorcerer in the comics.

Doctor Strange is scheduled to release towards the end of next year.
