Benedict Cumberbatch To Star in Marvel's "Doctor Strange"
Benedict Cumberbatch Confirmed to Star in Marvel's Doctor Strange
Dec 4, 2014 by Kate Stanhope Watch out, Marvel fans: The Cumberbitches are coming! Marvel finally confirmed Thursday that Benedict Cumberbatch has been cast as Doctor Strange in the highly anticipated film of the same name. Set to hit theaters on Nov. 4, 2016, the movie centers on neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a nasty car accident, discovers the hidden world of magic and alternate dimensions. Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose) will direct the film, written by Prometheus scribe Jon Spaihts. "Stephen Strange's story requires an actor capable of great depth and sincerity," producer Kevin Feige said in a statement. "In 2016, Benedict will show audiences what makes Doctor Strange such a unique and compelling character." The casting is just the latest coup for Cumberbatch, who is currently enjoying Oscar buzz for his turn as famous mathematician Alan Turing in The Imitation Game. He won an Emmy in August for his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes in the acclaimed BBC series "Sherlock" and he will next appear in The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. http://www.tvguide.com/News/Benedict...e-1090406.aspx |
