They first met in Dormamu's domain called the Dark Dimension during Strange's first encounter with the demon lord. Screenrant noted that Clea's present in the first film might set-up the events for a second film.
As for Morgana Blessing, she is a writer and is often a friend and occasional love interest of Stephen Strange. In recent comic book runs, she is depicted as the love interest of Stephen's brother Victor Strange, a.k.a. Baron Blood, a vampire. She also has ties with Baron Mordo which he will be the main antagonist within the film and is played by Chiwetel Ejiofor.

According to the Christian Today, Marvel president Kevin Feige hinted that "Doctor Strange" is the only Marvel film that will deal more on magic and mysticism as past movie often dealt with technology and alien encounters. Feige noted that "Doctor Strange" will cover all of the weirdness that is present in the comics and will likely show it to the fans within the film.
Feige further adds that alhought "Doctor Strange" movie is being filmed on London, Strange's home the Sanctum Sanctorum will still be in Greemwich, New York. He also explained his casting of Tilda Swinton as the female "Ancient One" as he believes that the character is a mantle and a title rather than a person, Newsarama reported.
