His parents were actors, so he just became the successor of family traditions. Cumberbatch began playing theatrical stage while he was still at school, very, very prestigious. One interesting fact is connected with this: his first role was female. No, seriously – he played in the school production of the fairy queen. His name and surname are rather complicated, and because of this, the future star was pretty teased at school. After graduation, he surprised everyone with his decision to go to Tibet. There he lived a whole year in a Buddhist monastery, observing all the established rules and teaching the monks English in response to hospitality.
After the Tibetan stage of his life, Cumberbatch returned to the UK, entered the university and continued to perform roles in theatrical productions, working as a bartender in his spare time. The natural hair color of Benedict Cumberbatch is red. He had to dye his hair for the role of Sherlock Holmes in the same series, but he liked it and eventually he continued to dye his hair. When fame came to him, his mother suggested that he change his name or surname to simpler ones, but he refused. In 2015, the Queen of England awarded Benedict Cumberbatch the title of knight.
