Tilda Swinton played the role of The Ancient One in Doctor Strange.

It appears that Tilda Swinton and her MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) character The Ancient One will be seen in Avengers 4. The films executive producer Michael Grillo confirmed the news in an interaction at The Austin Film Festival. He was talking about how difficult it was to get so many actors to work in a single film and said, “When we got Tilda Swinton, she was just a 1-day availability.” Screenwriters of the film Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely were also in attendance.

The Ancient One was seen in Benedict Cumberbatch starrer 2016 MCU film Doctor Strange. She was Stranges mentor and trained him in the mystic arts. She was also the Sorcerer Supreme before Strange acquired that title after her death. If this report is true, and she will appear in Avengers 4, her role would most likely concern time-travel since she was the one who wielded the Time Stone and she possibly knew more about it than anybody else.

HOT DEALS

Time-travel is heavily rumoured to be a great part of Avengers 4 for many reasons. In Avengers: Infinity War, the Big Bad of the MCU, Thanos, wiped out half of the life in the entire universe, including many major superheroes. Many insist time-travel will be used by the rest of the superheroes to get them back and undo the events that occurred in the film.

Avengers 4 releases on May 3, 2019.
