The Ancient One

Depending on which stage of the timeline the Doctor Strange movie is at – i.e. if it’s actually an origin story or if the scenes in which we see Doctor Strange learning his powers are merely flashbacks – then the ancient one may well still be the keeper of one of the final Infinity Stones.

You have to imagine that, if Doctor Strange does indeed get one of the powerful items, the Ancient One will have had it before him. Whether or not the handing over of it takes place in the movie or at a time before it is set remains to be seen.

Tilda Swinton will portray a gender-switched version of the character in the movie and we’re really looking forward to finding out more about her – perhaps that will include having used an Infinity Stone to become as powerful as she inevitably will be.

Now for the final character in this list.
