While “Doctor Strange” is still in production in Nepal, some new set photos have been leaked online, providing fans their first look at Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo. A new video also taken from the set teases the likely presence of the Ancient One.

Movie director Scott Derrickson and “Doctor Strange” lead star Benedict Cumberbatch are seen in action in the footage taken from the Nepal set (scroll down for video). The video opens in a temple scene showing two men dressed as monks standing beside a burning pot. Then there’s Cumberbatch, who plays Stephen Strange, looking scraggly in a long coat walking on a crowded street market, holding on to a piece of paper. At some point near the end of the video, a mysterious hooded figure is seen following the actor. The hooded figure's identity is unknown since his or her face is completely hidden behind the black robe. However, this could be a first glimpse at Tilda Swinton’s Ancient One, according to Comic Book Movie.

In the Marvel comic book story, Stephen Strange sought the Ancient One for help. Following a terrible car accident, the surgeon Strange lost the use of his hands due to a damaged nerve. After hearing about the Ancient One and his powers, he travelled to the Himalayas in the hope of having the use of his hands restored.

Some new set photos from the Nepal set of “Doctor Strange” also provide fans a first look at Ejifor as Baron Mordo. One picture shared through Instagram by a user named jccub shows Cumberbatch and Ejifor walking together. The “12 Years A Slave” star is seen in character costume in a black and green robe. The fan captioned the shot with, "Amidst a whole bunch of new Twitter pics from Doctor Strange's Nepal production, a couple have surfaced showing Chiwetal Ejiofor's Baron Mordo in full costume.”

Instagram user Wegeekgirls also shared a collage of photos from the Nepal set of “Doctor Strange.” There’s a shot of Cumberbatch and Ejifor walking with the local residents and another photo showing the two actors talking to the movie director.
