We went to the show last night to see Suburbicon and I picked up a copy of Cineplex Magazine and there was a good size article about BC (as part of the PR for TCW)...
I couldn’t find an online copy of it to link to but I thought I would reproduce a couple of parts here for interested people to read. I will type out the whole article if any of you would like it (but I have to go to London and visit our friend so it will have to wait a bit)...
The film also features Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road) as Nikola Tesla, the brilliant Serbian-born engineer who eventually teams with Westinghouse after Edison spurns his ideas, and Tuppence Middleton (Netflix’s Sense8) as Edison’s wife Mary, who implores Edison to spend more time with his two children.
It’s the first time we’’ve seen Cumberbatch play a father on film, a new development that mirrors the 41-year old actor’s like off screen. He and his wife Sophie are parents of two-year-old Christopher Carlton and eight-month-old-Hal Auden. Cumberbatch, a notorious workaholic, is now coming to terms with juggling a career and family.
”I am a lot less comfortable with that isolation than Edison was.” says the actor. “I am thousands of miles away from my children, which Face-Time only makes me painfully too aware. Absolutely my priorities have changed. It’s about where and when I do my work so I can spend more time with family.
”And the older I get, as well, I want to work with certain people. It’s not just about the material but to join with filmmakers I want to work with.”
The article is a lot longer than that of course but I have to leave soon so I will end this with one other note - There is a sidebar to this story titled “Batch of Productions” that summations on 4 more SunnyMarch productions. Listed are TCiT, the Melrose series, How to Stop Time and The End We Start From (and they mention in the write up that BC and Sophie are co-producing this one).
This article was written by Ingrid Randoja from an interview she did with BC during TIFF (so at the time TCW was still slated to be released).
:-))
