Benedict Cumberbatch, the beloved actor behind Marvel’s Doctor Strange, revealed that being abducted by six men while filming in South Africa more than 20 years ago, continues to haunt him.
“It made me go, ‘Oh, right, yeah, I could die at any moment,’” the actor said in an interview, explaining how the event irrevocably changed the way he looked at life.
The 48-year-old actor was filming a miniseries for the BBC in 2004 called To the Ends of the Earth. Between recordings, the actor went on a driving excursion with some friends.
