I'm not an overnight success. I've been doing it for 12 years. It's been lovely and varied so far.
Benedict Cumberbatch
This is an odd profession, and sometimes people get jealous, but I haven't really experienced any of that. Everyone's been really happy for me, which is really, really great.

I have memories of clouds whisking by while sitting in the pushchair on the roof of my parents' flat. I loved it! I just loved staring at the clouds and dreaming away.

I had parents who were working actors, who did really well in their careers, but it was a living. So it was a reality for me growing up it wasn't a fantasy. It wasn't sitting there going, I want to be adored. It wasn't that at all. Not to say that the screams of fans aren't a smile-raiser, but that was never the pull for me.

Benedict Cumberbatch
I haven't done period dramas back-to-back, or really anything back-to-back. You get asked to do what you're most recently famed for, so I'm careful of not repeating myself.
Benedict Cumberbatch
There's still nearly the same amount of slavery, if not more, in the world today, as there was at the height of the slave trade.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I have actual acting scars.
Benedict Cumberbatch
One of the fears of having too much work is not having time to observe. And once you get recognised, there is nowhere for you to look any more. You can't sit on a night bus and watch it all happen.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Conan Doyle is amazing in the way he has Watson describe Sherlock’s posture, mood swings, his hand gestures, and so forth in the novels.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I was thrilled with how the first series of 'Sherlock' was received. It was such great fun to film, which makes it so rewarding when something you enjoy is so well received.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Mystique is rare now, isn't it? There aren't that many enigmas in this modern world.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Honestly, it's very satisfying, and I'm very, very happy about how successful the last few years have been... It's great for the people who supported me early on to see the success I'm enjoying now.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I think it's fair to say that, yeah, I'm playing Doctor Strange, I get there.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Because reading is one of the joys of life, and once you begin, you can't stop, and you've got so many stories to look forward to.
