Cumberbatch, who plays a repressed cowboy in "The Power of the Dog," said his casting "wasn't done without thought," according to the film outlet IndieWire.
Cumberbatch, who is married to a woman, said at the Telluride Film Festival that his casting "wasn't done without thought," as reported by IndieWire. "One of the appeals of the job was the idea that in this world, with this specific character, there was a lot that was private, hidden from view," he said at the festival, where the film screened.More Related News
