Benedict Cumberbatch debuted in Marvel Cinematic Universe in the 2016 movie Doctor Strange, in which he played the titular role. Many fans agree that Cumberbatch was absolutely born for this role, and in only five years since his debut, Cumberbatch became one of the fan-favorite MCU veterans.

Cumberbatch reprised the role in Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. He also voiced his character in the animated Disney+ series What If…?. This month, we’ll watch him again in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and next May we’ll watch him in his own sequel Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness.

Although he quickly became one of the MCU veterans, it’s unknown what Marvel has planned for Strange after The Multiverse of Madness. Of course, fans are expecting that Strange will eventually get his third solo movie to conclude the trilogy, but with so many projects in development, who knows what Marvel is planning. Although nothing is sure for now, Cumberbatch revealed that he’d be down to return as the Master of the Mystic Arts in MCU, regardless of whether it’s Doctor Strange 3 or some other MCU project.

“As long as the character is interesting and challenging and doing fantastic things in the MCU, why not?”

He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
