It's been close to four years since we were first introduced to Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Stephen Strange, and the actor has gone on to play the character in THOR: RAGNAROK, AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR, and AVENGERS: ENDGAME, but there was once a time when fans were dying for a glimpse at the actor in his complete Strange-regalia.
When production on DOCTOR STRANGE was close to wrapping up in Manhattan, director Scott Derrickson suggested that Benedict Cumberbatch visit a nearby comic book store, which the actor promptly did, much to the delight of the employees and customers inside. Derrickson shared the video on Twitter the other day, which you can check out below.
Never before shown moment.

You can check out the snap which one employee took of Cumberbatch right here on Instagram. The actor will be stepping back into Doctor Strange's cape once again for DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, but owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, it's not clear when production will be able to get underway. However, Scott Derrickson won't be taking the helm this time around, but he'll be replaced by Sam Raimi (SPIDER-MAN). The film is currently slated for a March 25, 2022 release.
