Plot
A brilliant and arrogant surgeon's career is destroyed after suffering a car accident, yet he somehow discovers he has hidden psychic powers. This is 'Doctor Strange', Marvel's film directed by Scott Derrickson ('The Day the Earth', 'Sinister') from a screenplay by Thomas Dean Donnelly, Joshua Oppenheimer, C. Robert Cargill and Jon Spaihts, which presents the adventures of the character created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. The life of this unemployed doctor, who has lost his unique gift after suffering irreparable harm, is changed forever when The Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) decides to make him her new pupil and teach him the art of magic to fight evil forces. These evil forces are represented by Chiwetel Ejiofor the great villain of the film and his disciple Mads Mikkelsen. Benedict Cumberbatch ('The Imitation Game', 'Star Trek Into Darkness') leads the cast of the film that also features Michael Stuhlbarg, Scott Adkins and Rachel McAdams.

Trivia
Espiritualidad
Benedict Cumberbatch states that the spiritualism of Doctor Strange is what appeals to him the most about the role: "I'm very excited about that spiritual dimension. It's something that's been a huge part of my life. I meditate a lot, that's a huge tool in trying to calm myself, get away from the crazy circus of it all, have a focused mind as well as be a kinder, considerate person in the world."
'Fantasia'
Cinematographer Ben Davis cites Disney film 'Fantasia' as one of his visual influences when he says that 'Doctor Strange' "has a very psychedelic grounding" and that most of the work focuses on "other dimensions".
Tilda Swinton
The character played by Tilda Swinton changes sex in their adaptation to the big screen since in the comics the Ancient One was an old wizard.
