In an interview with EW , Feige revealed that McAdams will play a "fellow surgeon that has a history with Strange" who serves as "his sort of lynchpin to his old life" when he becomes a sorcerer. "She is someone he connects with at the beginning, and reconnects with, and helps anchor his humanity."Executive producer Stephen Broussard also shed some light on her role, noting that McAdams' character is basically Strange's "contemporary in the modern-day New York world, before and after he goes on this crazy journey" and provides an "audience point of view."Strange star Benedict Cumberbatch also chimed in to address the possibility of McAdams being a love interest for surgeon turned sorcerer, saying: "I’m not sure if I’m allowed to say what the interest is. But if I hit on her more than the Ancient One, put it like that."In addition to Cumberbatch and McAdams, Doctor Strange also stars Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo, Tilda Swinton as the Ancient One and Mads Mikkelsen as the film's mysterious villain .
