Benedict Cumberbatch – Actor

Benedict Cumberbatch received the best gene inheritance he could ever ask for, as both his father Timothy Carlton and his mother Wanda Ventham were actors. Growing up in an artistic family, Cumberbatch realized from a young age that he wanted to become an actor as well. Eventually, he managed to become much more famous than Carlton and Ventham, having landed some iconic roles. Nowadays, he’s mostly known for his spectacular performance in Sherlock Holmes, where he portrays the title character, but he’s also shone on the silver screen in films like 12 Years A Slave. He’s now also expected to star in the next Avengers film titled Avengers: Endgame.
