I am shortsighted. I need glasses for watching movies or concerts. It’s not a hipster affectation; I do have poor eyesight. This is how ridiculous my life is: I’ve had the test for contact lenses, but I haven’t found a half-day where I can go to the optician.

I’ve never been front and centre as an iconic American character [like in Doctor Strange]. Day to day, you know you’re painting on a very big canvas.

Character Doctors Strange
Doctor Strange is an origin story so there’s a certain room for me improving as well as the character improving.

Character Doctors Stories
Even though Doctor Strange is an established character, when you’re doing an origin story there’s a lot of room for manoeuvre.
