It's only a matter of weeks until Marvel's Doctor Strange spells its way into theaters. The much-anticipated film will introduce Stephen Strange to the silver screen and follows him on a thrilling, mind-bending quest to save the world. You know, the usual superhero affairs.

Well, except for the fact that his friends believe he has joined a cult.

The newest TV spot for Doctor Strange highlights Rachel McAdams role as Dr. Christine Palmer, a friend rumored love interest for the mystical superhero in the future. The two are seen in a hospital where Dr. Palmer treats Strange for several injuries and asks him where he's been. Doctor Strange calmly explains he's been away and picked up some special powers along the way, something which Dr. Palmer translates to 'I've joined a cult.'

However, as fans see, Doctor Strange has done anything but that. The sorcerer has instead become embroiled in a complex community of magical mysticism that has the power to destroy the world. Just as Wong says, the Avengers protect Earth from physical dangers while they "safeguard" it against threats which are more inexplicable.

From Marvel comes DOCTOR STRANGE, the story of world-famous neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange whose life changes forever after a horrific car accident robs him of the use of his hands. When traditional medicine fails him, he is forced to look for healing, and hope, in an unlikely place – a mysterious enclave known as Kamar-Taj. He quickly learns that this is not just a center for healing but also the front line of a battle against unseen dark forces bent on destroying our reality. Before long Strange – armed with newly acquired magical powers – is forced to choose whether to return to his life of fortune and status or leave it all behind to defend the world as the most powerful sorcerer in existence. Join Strange on his dangerous, mystifying, and totally mind-bending journey.

The cast features Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock, Star Into Darkness, The Imitation Game), Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave), Rachel McAdams (Sherlock Holmes), Michael Stuhlbarg (A Serious Man), Mads Mikkelsen (Casino Royale) and Tilda Swinton (The Grand Budapest Hotel).

The film is directed by Scott Derrickson (Sinister) and written by Derrickson, Jon Spaihts (Prometheus), and C. Robert Cargill (Sinister).
