It looks like Mads Mikkelsen’s mystery role in Marvel’s Doctor Strange is a mystery no more, with Heroic Hollywood uncovering a description for Marvel Minimates’ Doctor Strange Movie 2-Packs. If you don’t want to know, stop reading now…
A Diamond Select Toys Release! The next chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is now the next entry in the long-running Marvel Minimates line! Series 70 of Marvel Minimates mini-figures travels to the world of the Doctor Strange movie, with four different two-packs: Dr. Strange with The Ancient One, Mordo with Kaecilius, the specialty-exclusive Stephen Strange with Christine Palmer and the specialty-exclusive Wong & Zealot! Each 2-inch Minimates mini-figure features 14 points of articulation and fully interchangeable parts. Each two-pack is packaged in a full-color window box.
So, it looks like Mikkelsen is portraying Kaecilius, who in the comic books is a disciple of Baron Mordo (played in the movie by Chiwetel Ejiofor), while the description also confirms a previous rumour that Rachel McAdams is playing Christine Palmer, a.k.a. Night Nurse.
Marvel’s Doctor Strange follows the story of the talented neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a tragic car accident, must put ego aside and learn the secrets of a hidden world of mysticism and alternate dimensions. Based in New York City’s Greenwich Village, Doctor Strange must act as an intermediary between the real world and what lies beyond, utilizing a vast array of metaphysical abilities and artifacts to protect the Marvel cinematic universe.
