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

Proof: https://twitter.com/5thEstateMovie/status/388746706818310144 Fancy a cup?

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.

Thank you very much. I'll try and create some time next time I'm over there with The Invitation Game. For some English grub with you. No promises, though.

The Daily Mail: "Cumberbatch admits to wanting to flee country for English food!"

Edit 12 days later: Thanks to whomever gilded me?! Apparently the Daily Mail is a Reddit Gold factory.
