Benedict Cumberbatch reveals he's planning to take a break from acting after DoctorStrange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Benedict Cumberbatch reveals he is taking a break from acting after Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, though doesn't indicate how long. Cumberbatch returns to lead the cast of the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel alongside Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, Benedict Wong as Wong, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Mordo, Michael Stuhlbarg as Nicodemus West and Rachel McAdams as Christine Palmer.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness picks up sometime after the events of Spider-Man: Far From Home in which Strange is still coming to terms with opening the doors to the multiverse and learns he has unleashed a powerful and mysterious new adversary, requiring the help of America Chavez, Wong and Wanda to save multiple realities.

"It gets very multiversal in real life as well. I guess [I would be] one that's less busy, maybe... I might be that very soon, which is nice -- taking a bit of a break." Even prior to joining the MCU as Doctor Strange, Cumberbatch was an ever-busy actor in both film and television, having risen to stardom with his work on BBC's Sherlock while subsequently scoring rave reviews in Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy, J.J. Abrams' Star Trek Into Darkness and his Oscar-nominated turn in The Imitation Game.

Given he's enjoyed over a decade straight of consistent work in everything from independent fare to blockbuster tentpoles, it's understandable Benedict Cumberbatch would want to take a break from acting after Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
