 Benedict Cumberbatch rented a luxury property!

Benedict Cumberbatch is the British actor best known to us from the series “Sherlock”.He said the lockdown was a happy experience for him as he was able to spend time with his family.

The actor was filming for his latest film, ‘The Power of the Dog’ in New Zealand when isolation measures were imposed, writes the Daily Mail. Benedict has three children with his wife Sophie Hunter. They have  Christopher (6), Hal (4) and Finn (3). He explained how they ‘found a new home’ in an idyllic place.

"I loved the lockdown. I spent time with my wife and children, and my mom and dad came to us for a three-week. They saw me for the first time riding a horse and managing cattle, ” Benedict said. When the restraining measures began, the whole family remained locked up in New Zealand. They finally were able to spend some precious time together.

It was then revealed that the family was staying in a luxury cottage for £ 16,000 a night in New Zealand. Local fans spotted the star in Hawke’s Bay, a region on the east coast of the country’s northern island known for its beaches and wineries. The property has ten acres of land, a swimming pool and a pool house, a wellness area, eight bedrooms, and seven bathrooms, as well as a tennis court and a large playground. That is a real luxury villa.

Recall, the actor claimed that he was poisoned with nicotine three times while he was shooting the film. The 45-year-old starred in an interview with British magazine “Esquire” in the western “The Power of the Dog” by director and Oscar winner Jane Campion.

"It was very difficult for me. A cigarette without a filter and the worst part is one after the other. I earned nicotine poisoning for three times. When you must smoke a lot, it’s really awful" says Benedict.

Cumberbatch in the film plays Phil Burbank. He was an ostentatious rancher in early 20th-century Montana who tortures the wife of his younger brother George. According to Thomas Savage’s 1967 novel, the elder Burbank is “an excellent reader, a man who stuffed animals, skilled in knitting rawhide and horsehair, he knows to solve chess problems, a blacksmith and metalworker, an arrowhead collector (he even tailored arrowheads himself with more skill than any Indian), a good writer, a builder of beaver slides for stacking hay, a vivid interlocutor. “

Cumberbatch has had a lot of jobs lately. He is going from project to project, making as many as four films: “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” “The Electrical Life of Louis Wain,” and the aforementioned ” The Power of the Dog “.
