There is not much time left until Doctor Strange debuts on the silver screen. Until then, we got to hear more about the main character from Benedict Cumberbatch at San Diego Comic-Con 2016.
During this interview with Collider, Cumberbatch admitted that when he was cast for the role he didn’t know much about the character. Actually, he had no knowledge about the comic book world. Of course, he got to learn about the world of Doctor Strange and become him.
Cumberbatch reveals Doctor Strange’s main superpower
The Sherlock actor talked about the most surprising aspects of the movie and revealed details about Doctor Strange. What’s so amazing about the character and the movie?Benedict Cumberbatch tells Collider:
Quite how much he suffers and how extraordinary his willpower is. I think that’s his main superhero trait, is that the guy is sort of unstoppably stubborn. He won’t cease. And that’s great, because you see this character really go through the grinder. It’s non-stop punishment for this dude. What he has to become and how quickly he’s tested in the new arena that he becomes this person is so violent, so sudden, so non-stop, and psychologically brutal, as well as physically very, very brutal. It’s a huge character arc. So I think that might surprise people.
It seems that Doctor Strange will be a dynamic character going through a lot of challenges and changes. That will surely keep the audience interested and thrilled.
With an impressive cast (Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Mads Mikkelsen, Tilda Swinton, and Benedict Wong), a fascinating character, and a surprising story, Doctor Strange can’t fail the fans.
Waiting for the movie to hit theaters November 4?
