Calling All Cumberbitches: Benedict Cumberbatch Is Coming To Australia Later This Month

Cumberbitches, cue your freakouts. The world’s foremost British person — Benedict Cumberbatch, the star of nerd obsessions Sherlock, Star Trek, The Hobbit, and that terrible Wikileaks movie — is coming to Australia.

The guy will be appearing at the Adelaide leg of Oz-Comic Con in late March — where he’ll join superstar guests Billie Piper (ex-Doctor Who) and Shannon Doherty (ex-Beverly Hills 90210/my dreams) — followed by two special solo Q&A events at Sydney’s University Of NSW in early April, where he’ll regale you with wacky tales about thee-ay-tah and cravats (I don’t know). He’ll probably even do those awesome impressions of Alan Rickman and Chewbacca if you ask nicely (maybe even a goofy Australian accent, which he’s also a champ at).

More importantly, if you’ve ever wanted to make a Cumber-baby, you probably won’t get a better chance. Go for it, people: impregnate him, impregnate him!
