Benedict Wong says his Dr. Strange character will be more than a manservant
According to actor Benedict Wong, his character in Marvel’s Dr. Strange will be a bit different from his portrayal in the comics. In January, we reported that Wong, the co-star of sci-fi films like The Martian, Moon, and Sunshine, would be plunging into the fantasy realm to play a character also named Wong, who has been described as a sidekick and valet to Stephen Strange (played by Benedict Cumberbatch). However, in an interview with Den Of Geek, the actor Wong said, “I’m certainly not going to be the tea-making manservant. We’re headed in a different direction. He’s more of a drill sergeant.”
