10 Major New MCU Phase 4 Rumours You Need To Know
2. Clea Might Be Doctor Strange 2's Female Lead
When the news broke that Sam Raimi is now set to take the helm of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, it was also confirmed that Rachel McAdams will not be returning to reprise the role of Dr. Christine Palmer. That means the sequel needs a new female lead and while the Scarlet Witch is set to appear (and the dimension hopping America Chavez is rumoured to have a role), it seems that void will be filled by Clea.
Dormammu's niece has a storied history with the Sorcerer Supreme and one recent report claimed that Marvel Studios is searching for a female lead between 27 and 42 of open ethnicity with "leading lady qualities" to fill the role.
With Strange looking to potentially head back into the Dark Dimension as he battles Nightmare, Clea could easily start off as an antagonist before things change between her and the man who trapped her uncle in a never-ending time loop! Whatever the case may be, this is a character whose big screen debut is long overdue.
