The Sherlock Mystery: The Movies And Shows VS The Original Stories

Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock

Benedict Cumberbatch is a British actor who was thrown into stardom across the world by taking on the role in BBC’s Sherlock, as the man himself. Before this role, Cumberbatch was a respected actor, especially on stage, but not well-known.

Cumberbatch told The Guardian, “Sherlock Holmes,” Cumberbatch says, “makes you look at the world in the way you do anyway as an actor – as a rich canvas for observation. One of the fears of having too much work is not having time to observe. And once you get recognized, there is nowhere for you to look anymore. You can’t sit on a night bus and watch it all happen.”
