Watch: "Doctor Strange" Stars Show Off Magic Powers!

Things got trippy at the Hollywood premiere of Doctor Strange.

That's where I asked Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton to teach me how to travel to other dimensions and realms.

Yes, you read that correctly.

If you're not up on your Doctor Strange 411, the title character (Cumberbatch) is a top neurosurgeon who becomes a superhero when he visits a mystical teacher named The Ancient One (Swinton) after his hands are horrifically injured in a car crash.

His new powers include traveling to other worlds and dimensions through a circle of fire created by some signature hand moves.

With that in mind, watch the video above to see what happened on the red carpet and let me know if you think I have what it takes to be Doctor Strange.

And make sure to check out the video below to see Swinton play a quick round of superhero shag, marry or kill.

Doctor Strange is in theaters on Nov. 4.
