Doctor Strange

"This--this doesn't make any sense. All of this mysticism and crap! I mean, you're asking me to open my mind to the possible? What possiblities?! You want me to believe in the impossible. A-about fairy tales, about chakras and energy, the power of belief? I came here because I believed you could help me, not turn me into a magician!"

- Doctor Strange to Ancient One

Doctor Stephen Vincent Strange is a brilliant and arrogant neurosurgeon who suffered a horrific car accident, and began a journey that led him to the Ancient One as well as the discovery of magic and alternate dimensions. Calling himself Doctor Strange, he began to act as Earth's protector from threats from other dimensions.

Trivia

Behind the Scenes

 * Stephen Strange is mentioned in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. This marks the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that a superhero character is mentioned by name before making their first appearance.
 * Kevin Feige revealed that Strange did not have any powers yet during the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, as Project Insight was designed to anticipate future threats, not just catalogue current ones. He said that at this point Strange is "probably not... the sorcerer supreme," but is an "unbelievably talented neurosurgeon who's opinionated and kind of arrogant... [which] might put him on the list."
