While on MTV’s After Hours promoting his latest film, The Imitation Game, which is, based on the real life story of legendary cryptanalyst Alan Turing, Benedict Cumberbatch also was quite down to play After Hours’ own Imitation game, where he rattled off a bunch of impressions in about a minute. Among those are Batman alumni Jack Nicholson, who played the Joker & Michael Caine, who played Alfred in the Christopher Nolan movie trilogy. Benedict Cumberbatch does a pretty good job with most, but arguably his best is Bane near the end of the clip. See the video below:
The Imitation Game opens in theaters November 28th and Benedict Cumberbatch will get his own shot at superhero movie stardom soon as he’s reported to be cast as Dr. Strange in the upcoming Marvel film in 2016.
