The actor will star in Marvel’s “Doctor Strange,” scheduled to hit theaters November 4, 2016. The film, directed by Scott Derrickson with Jon Spaihts writing the screenplay, will follow the story of neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a horrific car accident, discovers the hidden world of magic and alternate dimensions.

“Stephen Strange’s story requires an actor capable of great depth and sincerity,” said Producer Kevin Feige. “In 2016, Benedict will show audiences what makes Doctor Strange such a unique and compelling character.”

Heard the guys name a bunch, but haven't seen anything he was in. Looks the part. Doc Strange has been long overdue for a (good) adaptation. His corner of the Marvel-verse is so weird & funky, & non-traditional superheroic that it ought to be a lot of fun. Good villain roster too. :)

Cumberbatch is talented, but damn am I getting tired of seeing his ginger mug everywhere.
