So this little poking at him, whether intentional or not, is hilarious if you know the recent controversy between Elliot and The Power of the Dog which got Cumberbatch a Best Actor nomination at the Academy Awards. When Heidi Gardner matches him with an almost just as wild nature, the two are lost in a battle of trying to describe what the ice cream tastes like to them in the most elaborate way. When asked what it tasted like to him, he goes on this long-winded rant about his feelings that is poetic and well-thought-out when the reality is that those in charge just wanted a simple response about how the ice cream tasted.

Ahead of Mother's Day, Benedict Cumberbatch hosted Saturday Night Live and jokingly shared that being Doctor Strange was just as difficult as motherhood.

"Oh my God," he exclaimed. "Seriously, Sophie, I hope when you think about it, you realize that it evens out," he said. "Meanwhile, according to you, I was off dressing up as a wizard."

(Having seen the film I can say it would erase the character’s motivation if you don’t know who those two women in her flashback scene are.) Disney “has so far declined the requested edits,” the Guardian reported. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness shows that familiar things skew differently in parallel universes. It is the first film in theaters for him since 2013’s underwhelming Oz the Great and Powerful, and a triumph for the man whose early aughts Spider-Man trilogy, which pre-dated the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is foundational for modern comic book movies.

Wade Cold Open” was that it actually had a perspective and was laser-focused on it: It wasn’t just a cavalcade of political “impressions” with no end in sight. In a strong episode though, “Chain Gang” was simply the least strong sketch. Pointing out just how ridiculous it was to cite 13th century English treatises within a 2022 context, this cold open had a sharpness that is typically lacking in this part of “SNL.” (Truly, the way the opening voiceover said “over a thousand years ago” was more biting than just about every political cold open this season.) Kind of like Strong splashing Colin Jost on Weekend Update when she’s doing her Jeanine Pirro impression, the crashing into Day’s trays (and then big bowl of soup), as predictable as it was, always worked — and Day’s performance was a large part of it. According to the sketch, it was sketchy enough for Cumberbatch’s character to admit he was a massive snitch. (It was also a sequel sketch to “Birthday Gifts” from the Regina King-hosted episode from last year.) Aidy Bryant’s increasing confusion and frustration throughout the sketch was great to watch — and the live audience clearly loved it — but things also worked as well as they did because of the straight man, nonplussed reactions from Cumberbatch, Mikey Day, Chloe Fineman, and Andrew Dismukes, who continues to make his comedic mark this season. At multiple times during “Chuck E. Cheese,” it seemed like the man was either going to spin the audience right round like a record or get down on his knees and pray. He unfortunately did neither, but both he and Bowen Yang — as well as their cast of features, including Aristotle Athari in his small blip of screen time for the week — provided. That choice was a good sign for the episode, actually, as there was no need to worry if he’d be warmed up by the end of the monologue; he was already warmed up to start the show. In his case, it was Cumberbatch and Heidi Gardner’s gruff Western characters, full of hurt and — very specific — childhood memories. Cumberbatch’s first time hosting provided the memorable “Why Is Benedict Cumberbatch Hot?” sketch, showing just how game he is when it comes to poking fun at his — let’s say, distinct — physical appearance. Wade draft — while also being the Mother’s Day episode, which meant this episode also had plenty of material to work with.

During the SNL episode, Arcade Fire served as the evening's musical guest. Wade decision was decided upon on Jan. 22, 1973, and the T-shirts were worn in support of women's rights following the recent leaked Supreme Court decision draft that threatens to overturn the landmark case.

'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness' star Benedict Cumberbatch said his pre-VFX magical hand motions are 'mortifying.'

You just kind of have to believe in it,” he added. “I think that magic tends to be something where you cast a spell, and then the camera sits back, and you watch something happen,” he explained. Since then, Cumberbatch has suited up as Dr. Strange six times, mastering his magic moves throughout the years. Benedict Cumberbatch made his Marvel debut as Dr. Strange in 2016’s Doctor Strange, which showcased the character’s introduction to mystic arts. That’s how Doctor Strange ultimately came to find its hand choreographer, JayFunk, a talented finger tutter who taught Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton all of their spellcasting motions.
