“卷福”如今是红遍欧美的一线明星。他凭着超凡的演技、绅士般的风度、淡定从容的气质及其所饰演的一系列剑走偏锋的角色赢得了观众的喜爱，同时让人们记住了他那十分拗口的名字——本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇。与他所饰演过的任何角色都不同，现实中的“卷福”开朗热忱、率性可爱、待人真诚，又不失幽默，不愧是人见人爱的大众情人。

Benedict Cumberbatchsweeps[1]into an empty hotel ballroom,cutting anattyfigure[2]in a black-and-white glen plaid jacket, checked shirt and striped canvas sneakers. \"I see you have your festival bag,\" he says confidingly, taking note of the crumpled Toronto International Film Festivaltote[3]at an interlocutor\'s feet. It\'s a substitute for the one that broke at customs, overstuffed with a laptop andsundry[4]travel necessities.

\"That\'s exactly what happens to me,\" he offers enthusiastically. \"Because I\'m packing all the time. I\'m always killing really perfectly good bits of luggage byshoving[5]loads of stuff in them, and then the seams break, handles drop off, you know.\"

A Cult Heart-throb

Sure, we know. But, let it be stipulated, no one can really know what it\'s like to be Cumberbatch, who has had a year that has been, well, especially packed. The 37-year-old Brit, who has been a cult heart-throb among the PBS-BBC-plummy[6]-literary-adaptation set, played theNecromancer[7]in last year\'s Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. But he truly burst into mass popular consciousness this past summer, when he thoroughly dominated the role of Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness. On Oct. 18, he will star as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in The Fifth Estate and has supporting roles in two high-profile films arriving soon: 12 Years a Slave, directed by Steve McQueen, and August: Osage County, adapted from Tracy Letts\'s Pulitzer Prize-winning play.

\"A packed year, exactly,\" Cumberbatch says with a reflective sigh. \"It\'s been amazing. It\'s been amazing. But two years really, because Trek we filmed the beginning of last year, and before that—God, it winds back quite a ways. I mean, literally, just sort of the height of what I could ever imagine myself being asked to do as an actor has been going on pretty much now for about four or five years.\"

\"卷福\"及其粉丝在多伦多国际电影节

Cumberbatch speaks at a breathlessclip[8], his words spilling out in a joyous, oncoming rush that suggests he really is thrilled to be here, however tempting it would be to read hisgee-whiz[9]protestations as the practiced act of a cannyingenue[10]. He is, quite simply—and this is for all those self-proclaimedCumberbitches[11]out there who have designated him an unlikelypin-up[12]idol—just aschiseled[13], engaging, well-mannered and disarmingly modest as they imagine in their wintry, wind-tossed fantasies.

A Born Actor

He comes by it honestly. Cumberbatch is the son of two actors—Timothy Carlton and Wanda Ventham—who grew up in London and is as at home in the poshprecincts[14]ofBurke\'s Peerage[15](an ancestor was a consul under Queen Victoria) as in theklieg-lighted[16]world of Show People. (So how did Cumberbatch end up with his last name? It was his father\'s surname; Carlton a middle name turned stage name. So Benedict has simply reclaimed the family name.) But his career has followed contours that even his parents couldn\'t prepare him for. He\'s done high-profile work in such highly regarded films as Atonement, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and War Horse, as well as on television, in Hawking, Sherlock and Parade\'s End. He\'s a celebrated figure of the London stage: In 2010 he earnedkudos[17]for his performance in a revival of Terence Rattigan\'s After the Dance, and the following year he won anOlivier Award[18], for his work in an experimental version of Frankenstein, adapted by Danny Boyle. It was After the Dance, he says, that marked the turning point when the phone started ringing. It hasn\'t stopped.

\"I knew when I started out that I wanted something very different from what Mom and Dad had anyway, but I didn\'t know quite what—I didn\'t know how it would manifest—but even they look at it and go, \'Whoa,\' \" Cumberbatch says. \"It\'s beyond everyone\'s sort of expectation. But also the workload and everything, it\'s different to their game.\"

It\'s enough toturn a boy\'s head[19]. But Cumberbatch, along with such contemporaries asMichael Fassbender[20], is forging the kind of career that actors covet these days, combining recurring roles in hugefranchises[21]like Star Trek and The Hobbit. His role model, he says, isJames McAvoy[22](his one-time co-star in Starter for 10), who along with Fassbender appears in the X-Men movies.

A Practiced Shape-shifter

\"Quite interesting\" is an understatement when it comes to Cumberbatch\'s work, which has found himslipping into[23]personae and physical types with the ease of a practiced shape-shifter. Nowhere are his skills in finer form than The Fifth Estate, in which he seamlessly masters Assange\'s signature Australian accent,lisp[24]
