The Oscar-nominated actor never dreamed of being a superhero, but he quickly got used to the idea.
With a projected opening weekend of $75 million, Doctor Strange is getting plenty of buzz lately, but the film's star, Benedict Cumberbatch, has been attracting attention from the ladies for years.
The Oscar-nominated actor has been called the "internet's boyfriend" for the plethora of memes and tweets that have been made by adoring female fans.
One fan tweeted, "Sometimes when I'm sad, I picture a shirtless Benedict Cumberbatch slowly eating an apple fritter. Try it!"
Despite the flattering comments, Cumberbatch pointed out that he's off the market.
"Most people know that I'm married, so that's it," Cumberbatch told ET while promoting Doctor Strange.
