Chiwetel Ejiofor Will Play Baron Mordo In Doctor Strange!

It’s official, Oscar nominated-actor Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) will play the villainous Baron Mordo in Marvel Studio’s upcoming Doctor Strange film. Baron Mordo was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko and first appeared in Strange Tales #111. Mordo is a fellow apprentice of the Ancient One but betrays him and Doctor Strange.

The Scott Derrickson directed film also stars Benedict Cumberbatch in the title role.

It might be a little early to get excited for this movie but I think it’s going to have a completely different vibe from all the other Marvel Studio movies when it opens in theatres November 4, 2016.
