Blind Items Revealed #3

December 1, 2019

Considering she thinks of herself as the literary one, and has been desperate to land a book deal, I'm sure the wife of this foreign born A list dual threat actor must have been thrilled to know the actor got a book deal and won't have to write one word of it. He got it because of who he is and no writing talent required.

Sophie Hunter/Benedict Cumberbatch

  1. She's not famous enough for a book deal. Just write a book and publish it the normal way. She's accredited enough for that by far.

  2. Barely care about him, definitely don't care about her. Andrew Scott was the real star on Sherlock.

  3. Well, book publishing is about making money and optioning books for lucrative movie deals. Usually, when I buy a book by a celeb it's because they've done something they've done, like reading a book about Hitchcock or buying Bob Geldoff's biography in the wake of Live Aid.

    I can't think of why I would want to read a book by Benedict Cumberbatch.

    1. It's also about money laundering. About to become BIG news. Need to give someone cash/bribe? Book deal.

  4. I'm interested to see what this book is about.

    Is it the one he read from at the event where Princess Beatrice crashed the party? Because I don't know that a spirituality book by an actor with questionable decision making skills is something that will sell.

    (except to his "real" fans, who are probably already lining up to buy 4 or 5 copies each, just so they can snuggle up with them at night)

  6. Is he gonna come out? If not, don't bother writing your bio or whatever.

  7. @sandybrook- I don't think he's gay. I think he's too much of a womanizer to be gay. I would entertain the idea of him being opportunisticly bi though.

  8. @Brayson87: recency bias. Andrew Scott, while good as Moriarty, never held a candle to Benedict in Sherlock.

  9. Haha you're funny SimSim. Andrew Scott was basically only in the first two series, The Abominable Bride, and a small yet best part of series 4. He did for Moriarty what Ledger did for Joker.
    You could replace Cumberbatch with a dozen awkward looking British actors, but Scott has his own thing going on entirely.

  10. Or did you think I preferred Andrew Scott because of Fleabag? I've been cheering for him since series 1. Maybe you need to be told who is talented, but that failing isn't mine.

  11. Cumberbatch never had a hit song made out of one of his quotes:

    Billie Eilish - you should see me in a crown (Vertical Video)

  13. Bendmeover Colonsnatch is as gay as gay comes. B.R.I.T.I.S.H. A.C.T.O.R. Derives from the original Greek which means "wear my ass like a hat."

  14. Sad that Enty didn't cover this one in the recent recap podcast. I do love it when he snorts about Mrs. Cumberbund's "achievements."
