Benedict Cumberbatch Talks DOCTOR STRANGE For The First Time Since Being Cast

After months of denials, Benedict Cumberbatch is finally able to talk about being cast as Doctor Strange in the highly anticipated Marvel Studios movie from director Scott Derrickson. He can't say much, but hit the jump to find out how he feels about playing the Sorcerer Supreme...

HeyUGuys managed to catch up with Benedict Cumberbatch at the 2014 British Independent Film Awards, and were quick to ask him how he feels about being cast as Doctor Strange. He obviously can't say too much (and is likely already fed up with being asked), but these are the first comments from the British actor since he was officially announced as being Marvel Sorcerer Supreme.

Is it odd I'm really excited about his freaky hand motion and spiritual gang signs he's going to throw up to cast his spells?

Who said they were skipping Strange's origin? Doesn't the official synopsis talk about his car accident?

Has anybody else realized that if it is a Doctor Strange origin story it will have to take place before Age Of Ultron and Captain America: Winter Soldier?

@people saying that it is not an origin story, back when Marvel had their "Phase 3" Presentation Feige went on and have a very brief synopsis for Dr.Strange where he mentions the car crash and how it is a downward journey for Stephen Strange...
