  1. I’m intrigued. I’m definitely in the Cumber-camp–because I find him very attractive in that “tall & weird” plus charismatic way. And he just gives so much depth and emotion to the characters he portrays. But I do like me some Hiddleston, too. So basically, this show will be a whole lotta yum. If not for the costumes, then for these gorgeous gentlemen.

  2. Toshiro Mifune! Well, all right. Mr. Cumberbatch it is. Though they’re both talented and I liked what I saw of Mr. Hiddleston’s Harry. I’m looking forward to seeing what BC does with Richard.

  3. Hiddleston all the way baby. ESPECIALLY goatee sporting Hiddleston!

    As Alyxx put it so perfectly, Cumberbatch “looks like an alien in a bad human suit.”

  4. I need both, please. Sorry, but anyone who really knows me knows I play for both teams. So neener!!

  5. I like both their acting but find neither attractive. Cumberbatch looks exactly like my uncle as well, which is a creepy level for me that makes him even less attractive.

  6. I’m going to use a term usually reserved for defaming women (which, being a woman, is totally allowed) and say that Cumberbatch is a total onion. There is little I want more than to remove a bespoke suit from his body with an excruciatingly slow pace, but I can definitely live without that face! (…Of which I am conflicted about as it is because I love Matt Smith’s Rocky Denis face and my fiancé is like David Tennant with a giant nose *facepalm*.)

  7. Cumberbatch has a very odd face doesn’t he? Odd yet attractive. He’d make a great Elf. Hiddleston on the other hand has the saddest puppy dog eyes….

  8. I loved Hiddleston’s interpretation of Prince Hal/Henry V. And I prefer him to Cumberbatch here, in terms of looks; because I can’t stand Cumberbatch/Richard III’s hair in the show.
