Benedict Cumberbatch Shuts Down Star Wars: Episode VII And Doctor Who Rumors


In a recent Q&A at the Australia's Oz Comic-Con, actor Benedict Cumberbatch denied any involvement in J.J. Abrams highly anticipated Star Wars: Episode VII. The actor, who entered in the director's second entry in the "revival" of the Star Trek franchise, said that he would have liked to have entered in this new franchise, but sadly that won't happen.

As for the Doctor Who rumor, it seems that the actor doesn't have any particular interest in playing the character.

Say what you will, but disinformation is the name of the game when it comes to these big franchises, meaning it wouldn't be a complete shock to see a few months from now Cumberbatch's name in the casting sheet for Star Wars. As for Doctor Who, this wasn't the first time the actor commented on the subject and his lack of interest in playing the iconic role.
