If there’s a more Thespianic name than Benedict Cumberbatch in all of acting right now, please speak up.
The Oscar nominee knows this as well as everyone else, and last night elected to show what would happen if he went by another name. Be honest, would you hire if Cumberbatch he were agricultural insurance salesman Gary Miller, or CPA David Weinstein?
OK, so you probably still would. But you can’t deny that name definitely helps.
