According to Marvel Updates, the Marvel intelligence station, the Marvel movie "Doctor Strange 3" will start shooting in 2025, and the second-generation director Sam Raimi and actress Charlize Theron are expected to return.

It is reported that "Doctor Strange 3" will explore the past of Clea (played by Charlize Theron), and the super villain Dormammu will return in a different form in "Doctor Strange 3".

Traitor from the Dark Dimension

The character "Clea" first appeared in the comics in November 1964. She is set as Doctor Strange's apprentice, lover and wife. She is also the daughter of "Umar" and the niece of the dark dimensional lord "Dormammu" (Umar is Dormammu's sister). Clea masters various magics, has super strength and injury resistance, can teleport, telekinesis, mind control, and project illusions. Her abilities come from the magic given by the "Flames of Regency". The "Flames of Regency" exist on the crown of the dark dimensional lord. When Dormammu was defeated, Dormammu's sister Umar regent ruled the dark dimension. After Clea overthrew her mother, she also gained the abilities given by the Flames of Regency!

In the original novel, Doctor Strange and Clea did not meet in person like in the movie, but when Doctor Strange was exploring the dark dimension, he had already met Clea, but he did not know her identity and only called her "mysterious silver-haired girl"; and when Doctor Strange was fighting Dormammu (which corresponds to the plot of the first episode of the movie "Doctor Strange"), Clea had actually been secretly observing Doctor Strange in the dark dimension, and she admired the courage shown by Doctor Strange in the fight against Dormammu. Therefore, she assisted Doctor Strange in destroying Dormammu's conspiracy many times, and was regarded as a traitor by Dormammu and expelled from the dark dimension.
