After weeks of widespread critical acclaim, Marvel's Doctor Strange finally made its way into American theaters this past Friday and quickly became one of the biggest openers of the year, having already grossed over $85 million domestic, $325 million worldwide. The good fortune will likely continue into next week unless Denis Villeneuve's critically acclaimed sci-fi drama Arrival manages to exceed its modest projections.

With Doctor Strange a certified hit, this week's installment of NBC's long-running sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live entrusted the Sorcerer Supreme himself Benedict Cumberbatch with hosting duties for their final pre-Election episode. Cumberbatch unfortunately doesn't don the Cloak of Levitation or Eye of Agamotto for any funny Strange-related sketches, but he does still get into a number of other entertaining bits. Plus, the World Series Champion Chicago Cubs also drop in.

Check out all of his sketches and more below:

Marvel’s Doctor Strange follows the story of the talented neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a tragic car accident, must put ego aside and learn the secrets of a hidden world of mysticism and alternate dimensions. Based in New York City’s Greenwich Village, Doctor Strange must act as an intermediary between the real world and what lies beyond, utilising a vast array of metaphysical abilities and artifacts to protect the Marvel cinematic universe.

Doctor Strange features:
Director: Scott Derrickson
Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange/Doctor Strange
Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Karl Mordo
Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One
Rachel McAdams as Christine Palmer
Mads Mikkelsen as Kaecilius

BC is such an amazing actor. He is perfect as Dr. Strange, and the movie was great.
