From Doctor Strange To Sherlock: Ten Of Our Favourite Benedict Cumberbatch Characters

Benedict Cumberbatch is set to return in a new series of 'Sherlock' soon, but that's just the tip of the iceberg compared to what he's got coming up. He will reprise his Doctor Strange role in both 'Thor: Ragnarok' and 'Avengers: Infinity War', before playing Shere Khan in a new adaptation of 'Jungle Book' and voicing the Grinch in 2018's 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas'.

Here's a look at all his greatest roles to date:

9. Zoolander 2: Another quirky cameo, it may have drawn criticism from some critics, but we personally loved the star's take on an androgynous model, confusingly dubbed All. That lofty, genderless air isn't a trait shared by your average movie character, but Cumberbatch makes it look like he's been modelling for years.

Chiwetel Ejiofor stars with Benedict on 12 Years A Slave

10. 12 Years a Slave: In this emotional movie about 1800s slavery, he plays a preacher named William Ford who becomes the first buyer of Solomon Northup - despite the latter legally being a free man. It's yet another complex role because while Ford comes across as a kind and religious man, he still can't see past the end of his nose when it comes to Northup's dilemma.
