Eddie Redmayne and Benedict Cumberbatch did LITERAL magic last night

Fans of both the Marvel Universe and Harry Potter have been waiting with bated breath for the release of Dr. Strange and Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them this year. Luckily, the cast of both films have been doing a lot of promotional television appearances as of late, and they even joined up during a segment on The Graham Norton Show. Eddie Redmayne and Benedict Cumberbatch did LITERAL magic.

The two were primed and ready to please an audience holding their breath. Everyone tensed up the moment the talk show host brought up Eddie’s love of magic tricks and his failed attempt at being a real-life magician. He was presented with a coloring book and the rest is history!

To the delight of all viewers, Eddie Redmayne has Benedict Cumberbatch and Bryan Cranston blow on a seemingly empty coloring book — making pictures appear as if by pure magic. Basically, he was the real deal. The audience swore that they could audibly hear Daniel Radcliffe salivating in his apartment.

To be fair, this is not the first time Eddie Redmayne has talked about his love for magic.

He loved it ever since he was a kid. This explains  why he was so enthusiastic about playing the upcoming role of Newt Scamander. In fact, he even handed out wands to everyone in the Comic-Con audience who came to his presentation in Hall H. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=

Hopefully we can see a Dr. Strange crossover into the world of Harry Potter, because that would be spectacular. Just imagine all the amazing things they could accomplish together! Until then, we’ll just have to settle for their amazing time on screen together during a talk show.

Dr. Strange comes out in theaters on November 4th, 2016 and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them on November 18th.
