After his career is destroyed, a brilliant but arrogant surgeon gets a new lease on life when a sorcerer takes him under his wing and trains him to defend the world against evil. Thus enters another classic character into the MCU, as Benedict Cumberbatch portrays DOCTOR STRANGE in this very first trailer!

“Teach me.”

A few choice screencaps:










While GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY took the MCU into outer space, DOCTOR STRANGE will introduce audiences to the supernatural side of things. I think audiences are willing to open their minds to something a little more “out there” than the likes of Iron and Ant men, if you will. If anything, Benedict Cumberbatch could make the phone book sound interesting for 2 hours, so I’m sure he’ll have no problem pulling off DOCTOR STRANGE!

DOCTOR STRANGE hits theaters on November 4, 2016.
