Collider caught up with Z for Zachariah stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Chris Pine, and Margot Robbie recently to discuss their respective roles in that film, but finished the interview by quizzing the trio on some of their other high profile upcoming projects. For Robbie, that's Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad. All she would say was that she's, "Pretty effin excited," and that "It's going to be epic." Ejiofor meanwhile - who is rumoured to be up for a villainous role in Doctor Strange - wasn't willing to comment on that report, saying only: "You'll be the first to know." We'll see about that! Pine meanwhile was asked to weigh in on the news that Simon Pegg wil rewrite Star Trek 3. "Pretty radical," he said in response to how he feels about it. "It's the best thing that could have happened to us. So excited to have Simon behind it. I think the big thing with Trek is that there's a nice comedic bent to it, so to have  Simon architecting that is perfect." What do you think?

Lol I was wondering what Star Trek 3 and Strange had to do with each other... ;) Didn't know Pine, Ejiofor and Robbie will all be in the same movie. Looks like I'll be checking that one out!

@Minty I just got worried that this Trek 3 news would be the same as what you just posted haha. It would've been yet another instance of a poor, defenseless basic user being beat to the punch by the big bad evil power user, Josh!

=P

@SauronsBANE - Haha not gonna lie that's why I checked it ;) Tbf to Josh if I beat him to the punch he always takes his stuff down - and vice versa. And with regards to this story in particular it's not a big one (and comes from an iffy source).

I guess what I'm trying to say is...

Looking forward to know if it is confirmed that Chiwetel Ejiofor will be in Doctor Strange, he'd be a really great comic book villain.

@ckal To be fair they casted Elba before he was like "he needs to be in everything." That was Marvel in rookie mode. The other cases were egregious.

@Minty Haha that's what I like to hear!

Also, you...you mean Josh ISN'T the awful villain so many people make him out to be?

@MightyZeus Jeff Sneider from The Wrap said the Chiwetel is going to do Doctor Strange on the latest "Meet the Movie Press" podcast and said that the actor is clearing his schedule this fall for it. It's all but confirmed.

@SauronsBANE - Aww that's a shame, knowing you it was about 4000 words long :P

I kid, of course.

(More like 4500 :P)

@MyNameIsKhan It'll likely get a late summer/fall release.

@Minty Actually, it was going to be a 10-part series that went in-depth on the conspiracy behind Josh Wilding...I hate to tell you guys, but it's even worse than y'all thought!

So yeah, probably closer to 7 or 8000 words =P

If Chiwetel Ejiofor is in Doctor Strange as a villain, Marvel better not off him at the end of the movie OR turn him into some forgettable villain. Please based Marvel Studios, don't waste this awesome actor! That's if he's actually going to be the villain in Doctor Strange.

Ejiofor played a pretty convincing antagonist in "Four Brothers."
