It’s difficult because nothing’s preordained by plan and you can’t control it. That’s one of those joys and thrills and nerve-racking realities of being an actor. A lot has to do with luck, no matter what your talent or contribution can be.
BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH

Joy Luck Reality

Butterfly Long Obsessed
I wanted to take the audience on a journey where that transition was funny and awkward. It’s the same cynicism that [Strange] has.

Any privacy in public is a hard thing to negotiate.

I want to be able to play trailer-bound fatties in a Judd Apatow comedy.

As an actor, to be part of that story’s [Marvel univerce ] terrific. I’ve enjoyed it so much as a fan and now I’m getting to have a go myself.
