UPDATE! Hey all! Claudia here. I was posting for Clint yesterday, seeing as his little girl wasn’t well (and in fact, many have tried to lend a hand since his tumor surgery – which isn’t great), and wasn’t even THINKING when I posted that title yesterday. So sorry! No harm was intended. I just was trying to think of a “12 Years a Slave” related title tie-in for the subject! Eeek, honest mistake. Sorry readers, sorry Clint (I had to use his login, because we didn’t have one for me and I didn’t think to post under editorial. Guess this is the last time I fill in?), sorry to offend all. I deserve the abuse – it would’ve definitely read offensive. But it was more just a line about the actor’s association with the movie, than anything else. Sorry people, readers, and @clintmoviehole, especially, I’m sorry!
Story…
“12 Years a Slave” star Chiwetel Ejiofor – long rumoured to be up for a gig in the flick – will play Baron Mordo in Marvel’s “Doctor Strange”, Deadline confirmed today.
The British actor joins Benedict Cumberbatch as the title character and Tilda Swinton as the Ancient One in the Scott Derrickson-directed movie.
As opposed to his representation in the comics, this incarnation of Baron Mordo won’t be an out-and-out bad guy.
Disney releases “Doctor Strange” November 4, 2016.
