While speaking with Collider, the seasoned actor Benedict Cumberbatch said that he admired the quality of improvisation from his Marvel co-stars. “You throw yourself out there in those huge sandpits. The remarkable thing I learned from Tom Holland and RDJ on Infinity War was seeing how at ease he was, just in improvising about Aunt May with Robert Downey Jr,” Cumberbatch said.

“He did this thing which wasn’t scripted at all. I’m quite a canon guy. It’s about the text for me. To be free with that and to have some manoeuvrability in it and to be able to improvise, and on such a large canvas, was a real eye-opener,” Benedict added.

Being a script-oriented actor, Benedict Cumberbatch also revealed that he improvised an important, heartfelt scene from Spider-Man: No Way Home. It seems like he learned a great deal from Tom Holland and Robert Downey Jr as the scene he is talking about came out beautifully.
