Smaug.... ik bedoel Khan... Benedict Cumberbatch is zich volgens dit interview met de Wallstreet Journal goed aan het voorbereiden op zijn rol als Dr.Strange voor de gelijknamige Marvel film. Dit karakter is nogal gecompliceerd en behoorlijk 70's en daarom ben ik zeer benieuwd hoe deze naar het witte doek gaat komen.

"I don't think it's a risk because of Marvel. Marvel is a stable of bringing out ordinary comic characters and turning them into screen-like gods. It's very different, it's an Astral Plane. There's a huge new element to this Marvel universe that's going to be employed in building this story and this character. But you know, I'm really excited about it, about working with Scott [Derrickson] whose imagination is endless, and all the boys and girls at Marvel who know what they're doing. I've got a few things to get under my belt first."

"Ahh ... you'll have to wait and see. I'm not going to be eked out on any spoilers or reveals now. It's quite a way off but I'm very excited about that spiritual dimension, obviously. It's something that's been a huge part of my life."
