Could that role be the super-villain 'Baron Mordo' in Marvel's upcoming "Doctor Strange" movie ?
Mordo's abilities were similar to those of Doctor Strange, but Mordo was particularly skilled at astral projection and hypnosis, as well as mesmerism.
He was more than willing to use powerful black magic and invoke demons, both of which Strange was reluctant or unable to do.

He can manipulate magical forces for a variety of effects, including hypnotism, mesmerism, thought-casting, and illusion casting. He can separate his astral form from his body, allowing him to become intangible and invisible to most beings.
He can project deadly force blasts using magic, can teleport inter-dimensionally, and can manipulate many forms of magical energy.
He can tap extra-dimensional energy by invoking entities or objects of power existing in dimensions tangential to Earth's through the recitation of spells. He can also summon demons, but often does not have enough power to force them to do what he wants them to do.
