OFFICIAL: Benedict Cumberbatch To Play DOCTOR STRANGE For Marvel Studios
Typical, eh? Now that Benedict Cumberbatch has finished promoting The Imitation Game and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Marvel have officially announced that he will play Doctor Strange in the movie which is set to be released on November 4th, 2016. Directed by Scott Derrickson with Jon Spaihts writing the screenplay, it "will follow the story of neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a horrific car accident, discovers the hidden world of magic and alternate dimensions." That's the first official plot synopsis for the movie, and obviously very close to the character's comic book origin. In a statement released on Marvel.com, Kevin Feige is quoted as saying: "Stephen Strange’s story requires an actor capable of great depth and sincerity. In 2016, Benedict will show audiences what makes Doctor Strange such a unique and compelling character." How do you guys feel about Benedict Cumberbatch being cast as Doctor Strange?
