Though most of Marvel’s Doctor Strange will be shot at Pinewood-Shepperton Studio in the UK, beginning in December, star Benedict Cumberbatch and company have gotten a head start on filming in Nepal this week.
Yesterday, Cumberbatch was spotted sporting the telltale Doctor Strange beard in Nepal where Strange goes in search of The Ancient One (Tilda Swinton).
In addition to Cumberbatch and Swinton, Doctor Strange stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Michael Stuhlbarg and Mads Mikkelsen.
According to Production Weekly, the movie will do some filming in NYC, in addition to the studio work scheduled to begin in just a few weeks.
Check out a few photos from the Nepal shoot that have been circulating on social media and be sure to let us know if you have any scoop about Doctor Strange filming!
