‘Doctor Strange’: Mads Mikkelsen Talks Villain Role, Says The Movie Has A ‘Different Flavor’

Marvel’s Doctor Strange is going to feature Hannibal actor Mads Mikkelsen as the film’s villain – although his character at this point has yet to be revealed. Ever since the actor was first announced, there has been plenty of fan speculation as to which Doctor Strange villain the Casino Royale actor could be playing. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Movies UK, Mads Mikkelsen discusses the tone of Doctor Strange and what fans can expect while also keeping quiet on his character in the film.

“If you look at the comic books, the comic books are quite different [to other Marvel stories],” Mikkelsen explained. “I think that the film will be different from the other [Marvel] films that we’ve seen, but not as different as the books are, because that was basically the ’60s and ’70s – it was more like an acid trip.”
