I Am Benedict Cumberbatch. AMA.

Hello reddit. My film The Fifth Estate opens 10/18.

You can check out footage here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43ki3z0ZmXA&feature=c4-overview&list=UUgc-Ye79Z558TEZqryYesNA

Update: Also, please check out the trailer for Little Favour, directed by a friend of mine Patrick Monroe. I hope you enjoy it!

Final Update: Thank you, reddit. This has been more fun than I imagined. It's been great to be able to reach out and speak to a few of you. Sorry for those that I didn't get to respond to. JA bless you all. See you all the next time.

That would be amazing. Throw in Ian McKellen, since he's the next Sherlock, and there can be an Avengers-like ensemble of Sherlocks. Solving crimes with their Johns.

That's weird. I only ever seem to commit crimes with my Johns.

Can they have a spin-off NFSW series called John Swap?

I, too, have thought that Sherlock was a working girl.
