Actor Benedict Cumberbatch made a surprise visit to a comic book store in New York wearing full costume during filming for Doctor Strange.
The star, currently filming the Marvel movie with fellow British star Chiwetel Ejiofor, made a quick visit to JHU Comic Books in 32nd Street with some of the film crew.
He arrived at 3.30pm on Sunday and stayed chatting to staff and customers for a few minutes, the store manager Rene Rosa told the New York Daily News.
"He said he came to specifically to see us since it would ridiculous not to visit a comic book store because he was filming nearby," Rosa said.
Before leaving, the 39-year-old actor posed for photographs with some of the store's Doctor Strange merchandise.
"I don't usually get starstruck, but it was so surreal to have the guy playing Doctor Strange in the store," Rosa said. "It was definitely hard not to feel like a little child."
