True Detective Star Joins Marvel's Doctor Strange!

Rachel McAdams is the latest actor/actress to be confirmed to join the highly anticipated Doctor Strange movie for Marvel and Disney's MCU. She will be joining Sherlock Holmes himself, Benedict Cumberbatch, who will be playing the title role of Doctor Stephen Strange.
There is no word as of yet which role she will be taking on in the 14th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Word is that she will be playing Clea, who is Strange's lover in the comic book series.

Jack Sparrow Being Considered For Role As Doctor Strange?

"Pirates Of The Caribbean" star, Johnny Depp, has been rumoured to be in, close to final, talks about taking on the role of Doctor Stephen Strange in the upcoming MCU entry, "Doctor Strange".
The wizard superhero is said to be taking over command of The Avengers once Robert Downey Jr takes off the Iron Man suit after "Avengers 3". This could all change if Downey Jr stays on past "Avengers 3" and decided to go ahead with a couple of more "Iron Man" sequels, which is rumoured to be going ahead in the coming years.
If Depp signs onto the role of Strange, he's said to be signing onto a six-picture deal with Marvel Studios. Three of his "Doctor Strange" films and if the rumour of him taking over from Iron Man, then he'll be in three "Avengers" films too.

Is Doctor Strange Taking Over From Iron Man As Lead In Further "Avengers" Sequels?

After it was confirmed that Robert Downey Jr was returning to the role of Tony Stark aka Iron Man in "Avengers 2" and "Avnegers 3", an insider close to the MCU has stated that Marvel are getting Doctor Steven Strange set up to be, well basically "being groomed to be the next Iron Man". 
Seeing as Robert Downey Jr really can't go on forever, looks like Marvel are already possibly making BIG plans to not recast him, but just move on without the character and have Doctor Strange lead the Avengers, which again is rumoured to feature the next gen of them, which makes total sense in my eyes. 
After this news, it's assumed that Strange WILL be making an appearance in "Avengers 3" to lead him into his own movie or to set up for "Avengers 4" and the next gen of phases. 

Doctor Strange And Ant-Man Will Be Part Of MCU: Phase 3!

During an in-depth interview that took place earlier this week with Marvel Studios producer Kevin Feige, it was announced that the long-awaited "Doctor Stange" film is still in development and will be ready to appear in Phase 3 of Marvel's Cinematic Universe. 

"'Doctor Strange,' which I've been talking about for years, is definitely one of them,"

He continued to talk about how different and amazing the character is in the comic books and what he'd be like on the big screen next to "Ant-Man" and the "Guardians Of The Universe",

"He's a great, original character, and he checks the box off this criteria that I have: he's totally different from anything else we have, just like 'Guardians of the Galaxy.' He's totally different from anything we've done before, as is 'Ant-Man,' which keeps us excited."

Doctor Stephen Strange is expected to appear on the big screen some time in 2016/17. He will then expected to join The Avengers in "Avengers 3" in or around 2018/19. 

On the not of "Ant-Man", Feige also confirmed that he will be the first film in Phase 3 in 2015, just after "Avengers" sequel,

"'Ant-Man' is definitely part of Phase Three. Like 'Iron Man 3,' it's certainly set in the Marvel Universe,"

"So much of what we're telling right now is about the core 'Avengers' characters we've now met, and they'll be evolving in big, surprising ways, in Cap's next movie and Thor's next movie and of course in 'Iron Man 3,' as we get them all into the next 'Avengers' film. Beyond that 'Ant-Man' is the only one officially announced."

"Lord Of The Rings" Star Turning Strange?

Filming for the 2013 sequel to "THOR" is underway in the UK (set pics on there way) and new rumours have already started. The big main rumour is that Doctor Strange is set to make a brief appearance to set him up for his own film in Marvel's MCU: Phase 3, but he may be included in "The Avengers 2" before his own film.
Casting rumours have started up again on who will portray Strange on the BIG-screen. Actor Joel Edgerton was strongly rumoured to be taking on the role, but now it seems that Aragorn himself, Viggo Mortensen is reportedly in negotiations with Marvel to play a key role in a MCU: Phase 2 film. Fans and online sites are all assuming that it's Doctor Strange after seeing this tweet by some dude on Twitter called Roger Wardell. 

"Inside News: Marvel is in negotiations with Viggo Mortensen for an unspecified role in in one of their Phase 2 films."

"Inside News: There's something "Strange" about Thor: The Dark World."

I guess it would be interesting to see Mortensen as Doctor Strange, but he is a bit too old for the role. I've always thought that the studio would go for a younger actor, but he is an amazing actor, so it could work well. Hopefully this rumour is true then people!!!
