- Scott Adkins as Lucian[14][15]
- Mads Mikkelsen as Kaecilius[10][16]
- Mikkelsen is playing the main antagonist of the film. The character is "a sorcerer who breaks off into his own sect", according to Feige.[17]

Notes
Trivia
- Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn filmed Stan Lee's cameo for this film. Director Scott Derrickson didn't meet Lee in person until the premiere of the film.[22]
- Lee laughing at a copy of Aldous Huxley's The Doors of Perception was one of the the four cameos shot for the film. The other three were: Stan reading a book and leaning into the person next to him asking if he knew the meaning of "excelsior;" Lee throwing his head back and laughing histerically while proclaiming to be crazy; and him laughing at a Garfield book hooting, "He hates Mondays but he loves lasagna!" Out of the three, the latter was James Gunn's favorite option, and it even made it to a cut of the movie before being scrapped due to being too long for the scene where it took place.[23]
- Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi wrote and directed the mid-credits scene of the film.[24]
- The psychedelic visuals of the film were inspired by The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Altered States, and Enter the Void.[25]
- Nightmare was considered for the role of main antagonist, but Kevin Feige argued against it.[26]
- The film's third act involving the reconstruction of a city is an intentional inversion of the usual massive property damage featured in superhero films.[26]
- An early version of the film's script had Doctor Strange obtaining the role of Sorcerer Supreme.[26]
