3/ 磁性聲線頻頻獲邀擔任配音旁白
相信不少粉絲 Benedict Cumberbatch 俘虜的其中一個原因便是其磁性的聲線。事實上,除了演戲以外,他亦涉獵不少配音與旁白工作。例如在 BBC 大熱紀錄片《南太平洋 South Pacific》及《與霍金一起了解宇宙 Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking》不少學術紀綠片中擔任旁白;又或是電影動畫《毛克利:魔森叢現 Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle》,以及電子遊戲角色,包括《新福爾摩斯 Sherlock: The Network》、《樂高:哈比人歷險記 Lego The Hobbit》等作都能欣賞到他迷人的聲線。
4/ 妻子是畢業於牛津大學的劇場導演
作為演員的 Benedict Cumberbatch 與畢業於牛津大學、任職劇場總監的妻子 Sophie Hunter 絕對是郎才女貌的一對。兩人於 2009 年因電影拍攝而認識,並在愛情長跑 6 年後於 2015 年步入婚姻殿堂,並在同年產得一子,取名為 Christopher Carlton Cumberbatch。當被問及妻子,Benedict 坦言:「一個能夠透過言語讓你的感到自信的女人很性感,當然幽默感也同樣重要。」如今,兩人已經育有三子,並經常被捕捉到在拍攝空檔期間一家人外出享受天倫之樂,幸福美滿光景惹人稱羨。

5/ 差點當不了「奇異博士」
繼《新福爾摩斯》後,Benedict Cumberbatch 另一最為人所熟知的角色便是 Marvel 系列《奇異博士》中的同名主角,這位靠施展咒語魔法製造魔法盾與控制時間、時空的超級英雄,同時具備科學與神秘學的特質,讓本身便是冥想與通靈學粉絲的 Benedict 認為非常適合自己。但其實當初 Benedict 與《奇異博士》的檔期剛好重疊,而導演 Scott Derrickson 亦曾與 Jared Leto, Ryan Gosling, Joaquin Phoenix,甚至 Keanu Reeves 等演員商討角色,不過幸好在 Marvel 總裁 Kevin Feige 的心中 Benedict 才是「奇異博士」的不二人選,因此決定為演員調整拍攝日程,大家才得以看到這個版本的《奇異博士》!
