Marvel Studios Wants Rachel McAdams for Female Lead in DOCTOR STRANGE

Will Doctor Strange wear pink on Wednesdays? Mean Girls star Rachel McAdams is Marvel Studios' choice to play the female lead in the upcoming Doctor Strange movie. Variety reports that while Marvel wants McAdams, it's unclear whether the studio has made the True Detective star an offer yet.

McAdams has addressed the possibility that she's on the verge of joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

"It's still super-early days," she told the Los Angeles Times, "and I don't know where that's gonna go, if it's gonna go anywhere at all."

If McAdams does sign on for Doctor Strange, she'll join Benedict Cumberbatch, Tilda Swinton and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Scott Derrickson is directing the movie, which is set to hit theaters on Nov. 4, 2016.

While Variety doesn't report who the movie's female lead character will be, there's a chance it could be Clea, a character who Marvel writer Brian Michael Bendis describes as "the mistress of the Dark Dimension and she's Strange's ex-girlfriend/wife. She was trained by Strange, right there in his home. She was his prized pupil. She was to Strange what he was to the Ancient One."
