Benedict Cumberbatch will reprise the role of The Sorcerer Supreme, and he’ll be joined by Benedict Wong as fellow wizard, Wong. Rachael McAdams is also “likely” to return as Strange’s love interest, It is not known yet if Chiwetel Ejiofor who became the villainous Baron Mordo would return, however it would only make sense.
