The actor has actually spoke about his turn in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to The Wall Street Journal's Speakeasy.
A big fan of meditation himself, Cumberbatch is very intrigued by the spirituality of DOCTOR STRANGE.
"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’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."
DOCTOR STRANGE begins filming in November in the U.K. and releases in theaters on November 4, 2016.
