British Martial Artist Zara Phythian Is In ‘Doctor Strange’

Apr 4, 2016

Doctor Strange has officially wrapped principle photography according to director Scott Derrickson.

There are still some casting mysteries going on with the film.

We’ve been quite curious who the unidentified actress walking around on set alongside Mads Mikkelsen could be.

It looks like we’ve discovered who she is. The actress is British martial artist and stunt woman Zara Phythian.

She seemingly outed herself on Twitter, while she’s not officially announced for the project this is clearly her in the set photos.

This could mean that they’ve hired professional martial artists to play Mikkelsen’s henchmen in Doctor Strange, and fellow badass Brit Scott Adkins might be among them as well. Zara could have a huge break from this role, depending on how many scenes she’s involved with.
