BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Benedict looks like...

Eric Mabius, the american actor who plays Daniel in "Ugly Betty". this is just a personal point of view, but what do you think guys? do you agree with me?? I don't know why but since I saw the first episode of the series 1, Benedict reminded me of someone but I didn't know who, until now. I think they look like each other, a little bit at least.

Eyes are similar.

I'm sorry, I can't see anything similar....

Can't help but feel there is but one Benedict Cumberbatch. He truly is in a league of his own.

I think his looks are soooo unique that I'd be very surprised if there are many lookalikes. But then, I'd rather look a bit unique than like everyone else. I once had a local artist say that I had a very unique face and he was interested in painting me (I have a weird profile, horrible nose, but nice eyes and mouth). I saw his 'unique' as not model-attractive (I wish!) but interesting. I still don't know whether to feel flattered by it. I never did let him paint me though.

But back to Ben...yes, I think it's great that he's so unique. There's only one Ben!!

He reminds me a little of Cillian Murphy; but only in a slight way... I suppose it's the cheekbones and the full lips that does it.

I recently mentioned in another thread that this photo of Benedict

reminds me of Damian Lewis (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0507073/)

But in most other photos he looks just like his adorable, unique self
(Ben is much cuter)

Benedict looks like a shining Archangel sent down from heaven by God himself to brighten our dark world with his beautfy.

But that's just me.

Has anyone seen Guardians of the Galaxy? I don't know who the main actor is in that, but when I was watching it the other day, I kept seeing Benedict in his face...he definitely looks like a young Benedict. It also made me think how awesome Ben is gonna be in a Marvel movie.
