Benedict Cumberbatch seems to be enjoying the perfect storm of projects right now. His work in Sherlock is probably his best to date, though he was equally compelling (read: hot) in Parade’s End, where he played the husband mistreated by Rebecca Hall. Reviews of both coming soon in our new TV section. Meanwhile, Cumberbatch has these projects in the can, in addition to the highly anticipated 3rd season of Sherlock:
August: Osage County
The Hobbit 2&3
Twelve Years a Slave
He’ll also play the lead in Bill Condon’s The Fifth Estate about Julian Assange.
Finally, he’s just been cast alongside Emma Stone and Jessica Chastain in Guillermo Del Toro’s Crimson Peak. Keep an eye on Mr. Cumberbatch.
