Moments after the movie "Doctor Strange in the Dimensions of Madness" hit theaters and conquered the top of the box office (with revenues of close to half a billion dollars worldwide in less than a week), you can see the movie star, British actor Benedict Cumberbatch, starring in another movie: "The Electrifying Life of Louis Wayne."
In the film, Cumberbatch plays the British artist Louis Wayne, who is known for his large-eyed cat paintings and human qualities.
He is considered in British history to be a groundbreaking graphic artist who illustrated Victorian legends.
Wayne began creating in the 1980s, and the film traces his professional development and personal life.
His partner Emily is played by actress Claire Foy, who played the character of Queen Elizabeth II in the first two seasons of the "Crown" series on Netflix.
Poe even won an Emmy Award for this role.
The plot of the film is narrated by Oscar-winning actress Olivia Coleman, who played Queen Elizabeth in the next two seasons of "The Crown."
The fact that two Cumberbatch films are running simultaneously in cinema is not surprising, as he is considered one of the busiest and most sought-after actors of the last decade.
His resume includes dozens of films, including the Oscar-winning "12 Years of Slavery," director Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit" trilogy, the war film "1917," and Marvel's "The Avengers" corporation, which he joined in 2016.
He was also twice nominated for an Oscar, for the film "The Imitation Game" from 2014 (in which he played the mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing) and for the western "The Power of the Dog", which stood out in the last ceremonial season.
At the same time, Cumberbatch starred in the BBC's Sherlock television series as the well-known literary detective from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's books.
The role earned him an Emmy Award in 2014.
He also starred in the mini-series "Patrick Melrose."
And if all that's not enough, you can also catch him presenting the new episode of "Saturday Night Live" which aired on yes VOD.
While promoting "Louis Wayne's Electrifying Life," Cumberbatch said that "Louis' story touched my heart. He was very compelling and faced so many tragedies in his personal life. This whole journey was extraordinary for me as an actor."
"We wanted to paint a cinematic portrait of him as a person while trying to challenge the linear thought of what a biographical film really is. The director's challenge was to paint everything with the magic, wit and sophistication that characterized the period in which the story takes place. Viewers understand the graceful impact on culture "An impression that is noticeable to this day. During the filming, I remembered that my older sister had his paintings in her room, and that's how I got to know him. He spoke to adults and children alike."
Kemberbach also said that his father watched the film and was very excited.
"I'm playing Louis over the years, and seeing me grow up on screen. It left my dad speechless watching his son grow old. It's something fathers often fail to see in their lives, and it was a special experience for both of us."
