Benedict Cumberbatch thought Tom Holland was a fan.

The Doctor Strange performer admits that he once ignored the new Spider Man star because he thought he was a member of his loyal following. Cumberbatch revealed to People Now: "I was just shooting 'Sherlock' on a bridge and I was running and I heard this guy 'Benedict, Benedict!' And I thought, "Oh, it's a fan, I just run back to my starting point." And he said, "Benedict, it's me, Tom!" And I wondered 'Tom?' But it was he, he came in a taxi straight from the 'Captain America: Civil War' premiere. "

In the past, Cumberbatch had spoken about his fans and how overwhelming the support was for him. 'Female First' quoted the movie star: "I went out and saw this long line of people. I asked 'Is this for an event?' And they said, "No, that's for what you're doing tomorrow." After speaking to the waiting fans, the actor raved about his loyal supporters: "I want to meet the people who make all of this possible because it's about them and their enthusiasm and dedication. It's overwhelming and leaves you absolutely humble whether they live miles away or have put a lot of effort into disguising it. It’s really inspiring and humble. It reminds you what it’s really about. "
