DOCTOR STRANGE Concept Art Described as 'Horror-Movie-Dark' and Shadowy and Benedict Cumberbatch Looks Menacing
It now seems safe to assume Marvel Studios might be preparing to reveal some concept art for DOCTOR STRANGE at Disney's D23 Expo in Anaheim next weekend. And The Daily SuperHero will be there getting you the best possible press coverage, too!
Last week during a Disney presentation in Africa — according to htxt.Africa via ComicBook — some concept art of actor Benedict Cumberbatch was shown to those in attendance. Here's a snippet of the report from this presentation:
"Doctor Strange looks dark. Very dark. As in scraping the edge of ‘horror-movie-dark’ and information imparted about the film from Marvel Studios head, Kevin Feige, supports this appraisal. According to Feige, the film will have a firm footing in the shadowy world of the occult and supernatural. While we’re not expecting it to be a true blue horror film, but if it could provide as many chills as say Constantine (the TV series, NOT the film), then that would be great.
"Oh, and Benedict Cumberbatch looks very fetching in his Doctor Strange get-up. Very fetching indeed…"
Speaking of concept art, here's some Twitter observations (via CBM) of how the Cumberbatch as DOCTOR STRANGE concept art looked.
@ohgodbenny His costume isn't too colourful. From what I remember, robes are blood red and green and cap is black.

Thoughts on the @Marvel Doctor Strange concept art from #DisneyAfrica is that Benedict Cumberbatch has never looked more menacing.

@itchicko There's definitely goatee - he wouldn't be #DoctorStrange without it! But keep in mind we only saw concept art.
