Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen at the DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS London Photocall

Posted on April 26, 2022

Once again, we are thrilled beyond thrilled at the prospect of a big-time, Disney-fueled Marvel promotional tour launching. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen stepped out in front of a goofy backdrop in London to remind you all about something of which you need no reminding.

We think he does really well for himself when he goes for something colorfully cute like this. Of course he can pull off the fine suiting and the high-fashion looks, but for this kind of project at least, he looks good working a slightly updated (and much better) version of what Robert Downey, Jr. used to attempt back in his Iron Man days. We question whether the lightweight sweater works with such a heavy-looking suit and the footwear feels completely wrong, but despite the quibbles, we approve of this style direction for him.

The vest looks a lot boxier on her than it does on the model. It could have used a bit more of a taper for her. Other than that – and the hair, which doesn’t suit her at all – we have no complaints. It’s a pretty great look, although it feels a bit dressy for a day time photo call.
