Benedict Cumberbatch shoot for Vanity Fair by Jason Bell | Phase One

[@lydiah6857]

The photographer seemed like a genuinely lovely guy

[@DJVARAO]

Indeed :)

[@smackdaddy9802]

True. I love how happy he was around his crew and Cumberbatch.

[@anoldfriend2821]

7:12 You being all mysterious with your cheekbones and turning up your coat collar so you look cool

[@mariacassandrataruc2574]

hahaha dat reference

[@watervogel6274]

I love this comment so much 😍😂

[@gracie_hannah_banana]

Wonderful. Just... wonderful.

[@thepancakequeen]

I SWEAR I WAS JUST BOUT TO COMMENT THAT

[@chiaraneugebauer4784]

thepancakequeen omg same!!!

[@pd1296]

it's so nice that he introduces himself at the beginning to the photographer

[@DJVARAO]

He is a gentleman and a professional before than a celebrity, that's all.

[@justsophiejane]

DJVARAO YES. 100% truth.

[@whitekiki]

He was assistant not the photographer. They already started with normal talk at first with photographer and why he wouldnt talk with photographer? Models and celebs love to talk with photographer XD

[@suzieuda]

I get the vibe that the photographer just wanted to see Benedict take off his shirt and get drenched. :P

[@nastashiamanns5401]

zzz

[@claudiajordan3124]

Suzieana Uda Nagu don't we all?

[@magpie9283]

Suzieana Uda Nagu who wouldnt?

[@SaLyChakala]

Yeah, he's not the only one... Benedict is so handsome and adorable

[@fashionata1234]

well i don't blame him

[@emmalouise8001]

So funny when he pretended he was sinking in the water 😂

[@jsant7323]

omg i was dying laughing

[@amirapal]

Emma Louise omg lol xD

[@maryw8720]

some other celebrities would be like: "nothing touches my body except fiji bottled water heated to 85.321 degrees, so, empty the lake and fill it with what i want". Benedict Cumberbatch is a true humble talent. well done sir!

[@diiivvv1252]

mary w what

[@andrewmckenley5355]

facts

[@d.1ghosh]

Im pretty sure thats a steroetype and most celebs aren't like that

[@natalieelessar]

Of course he had to pull the collar up, Sherlock style XD

[@namenlos3574]

Benedict is such a handsome man. But I would be so embarassed if so many people would look at me while I have to look good. :D

[@DJVARAO]

That's why he is such a professional. Amazing shoot, right?

[@namenlos3574]

DJVARAO I think so, too! ^^ He is really a professional and there is a good reason why he is so popular right now.

[@DJVARAO]

Namenlos Yup: hard work, being punctual, being nice, get involved, etc.. plus having talent and some scenic presence. People can learn a lot of these behind the scenes videos. :)

[@namenlos3574]

That's right!

[@mebart6667]

Same

[@hAiSuMiYuMi]

10:09 HOLY.. the sunlight rays and the background, & Benedict taking off his button down... *breathes heavily*

[@HTTSO]

Every word of this 👏🏼

[@knox273]

It's so innocent yet so dirty

[@JenniferPinto]

* *swoon* * Huh? Where am I? Is this heaven?

[@nikolijacuckic9594]

Photographer said hound... #onlysherlockiaswillunderstand

[@euclasew]

H.O.U.N.D

[@euclasew]

Nina Nikolija that episode actually scared the living shit out of me(I'm very easily scared I don't watch horror) and after that I watched half an hour of Benedict Cumberbatch videos to calm myself down XD

[@gracie_hannah_banana]

remember, he said HOUND.

[@antheal3728]

why say "hound?"

[@geneva1895]

Nina Nikolija plus, they were in fog at the time. H.O.U.N.D. Confirmed

[@yumimiu39]

3:00 so cute :D "hi I am Benedict"

[@SemaMehemmedli]

I didn't notice that :D

[@liznieves1]

9:56 Jason Bell: Less! Benedict: less, ok, less, really? I love him

[@alex0589]

This was pretty cool. Hard not to like Cumberbatch, he's always such a pro.

[@michelleli3373]

10:49 omg that one curl of hair. I can't right now.

[@barbdignan6837]

The Batch has that elusive, "it" charisma....everywhere, all the time. You can't buy it. You can't teach it. You can't practice it. You either have it or you don't. And he has it in spades.

[@Marisol1711]

I had to stop the video i don't know how many times in order to calm myself down. This man is indescribable

[@thatgirl-withtheredhair.5046]

That's it.

[@estylim]

I like how the video revolves around the photographer and how he does the shoot. You feel so immersed in the process just by watching the photographs being taken but you also feel the glee of watching a favourite celebrity look cool :)))

[@0306babylove]

Very interesting... And my God, Benedict is such a fabulous looking human being. Majestic.

[@thatgirl-withtheredhair.5046]

What You said.

[@dumplingsandfun]

He's unbearably attractive oh my goodness

[@jomoody798]

2:50 he kinda looks from another world in that suit surrounded by... mortals and Jason Bell is totally fanboying. I envy him so much. And he's so talented

[@0306babylove]

Yep, everyone else looks so boring next to Benedict.

[@jomoody798]

***** and benedict also doesn't help XDD he's flirting so much in that scene oh my god

[@nic0lasvazp354]

7:33 "Goodbye John." XD

[@gracie_hannah_banana]

NO.

[@Momo-bu3le]

Sherlock Gonzalez SHERLOCK!

[@nic0lasvazp354]

Momo Zhou plz subscribe to me plz

[@nic0lasvazp354]

Momo Zhou I subscribed you

[@geneva1895]

HOW DARE YOU BRING THAT UP

[@amandaou3831]

This is why I love Benedict, he's such a genuine man and clearly loves what he does for a living

[@michelleli3373]

Hounds...of Baskerville!

[@saraschneider117]

7:12 Benedict your Sherlock is showing „...turning your coat collar up so you look cool.“ :3

[@harrypotter1547]

AH! HE LOOKS SO CUTE!

[@sodabella]

What a gorgeous guy and a brilliant actor

[@yatzcurran]

In the part where Benedict is taking off the shirt, I just started fangirling. AAHH!? He's just so perfect!! XD

[@manipool]

The shirt off one shoulder. I blushed and had to pause it.

[@kellykoffi7904]

he is very talkative, there were a lot of great input on his creative process, I like the back and forth between him and benedict, how to get someone to do something you actually envisioned can be an excruciating, you must explain it through and through so the model can get a sense of what you're trying to accomplish, a good editorial photographer must communicate a lot. If it's your vision you must own it and don't let a refusal get the best of you.

[@sabiealdover]

he just . backward jumps into the lake . what a legend

[@ethanforrester1820]

Damn, when Benedict walked in that suit with those sunglasses on, i swear, i could feel my heart trying to jump right out of my chest

[@RossWinchester]

I like how playful was during the shoot, it felt really light and it made me laugh. It was nice to see how things work behind the camera

[@mfgmiriam]

the photographer just seems like the most loving genius!!

[@kurtlindner]

British photographers are always so freaking nice, best people to work with. -and great shots.

[@angryrat451]

10:18 I love how he just bodily launches himself backwards in a full, midair plank formation. Then you hear that soft, “Jesus.” from behind the camera.

[@deeperedges3100]

3:01 Benedict introducing himself to the guy, such good human at heart 😍😍

[@margplsr3120]

Benedict C. is so english, so perfect !

[@heathergittens3223]

True, But not our typical Englishman, which is what I like.

[@soap4780]

ty for saying english and not ‘british’

[@xoShanixo]

Am I the only one thinking about the lake scene in Pride and Prejudice? He would make a great Mr Darcy

[@JenniferPinto]

Are you kidding me?! He would make THE MOST PERFECT Darcy! 😘

[@kreativjunkie8053]

9:57 The purrrrfect mix of cute, funny and steamy

[@jeissanascimento]

Oh My!😱❤❤

[@WolfLover9012]

Anyone else think of the Reichenbach Fall when he jumped off the tree in the second shooting lmao xD

[@geneva1895]

Shadow Kitsune goodbye john

[@WolfLover9012]

Tmw I have a bracelet with the letters spelling out Watson haha Season 4 was so omfj

[@mustangpatty51]

This was a very cool video. Jason is a very talented photographer and I like that Benedict is getting into so well. Thanks for the upload.

[@mandurahchess]

Hiddles4Ever -For The Love Of Tom Hiddleston Probably still is.

[@justonemorepage4961]

What an awersome fotosession! They made a great job, god, thanks to those who film that

[@mariewiseman2962]

Rediscovering one of my favourite photoshoots! Benedict looks so good! ❤️❤️

[@rheatanner4818]

I like the fact that the video was centered around the photography process with great input from the photographer. These guys aren't included enough

[@Samantha.s.o.o]

I love Benedict Cumberbatch so much! He is a fantastic and lovely person, a charming man and obviously an amazing actor!

[@LiamMcFarlandtapioca]

The first 16 seconds is essentially the Sherlock opening.

[@femkeedelbroek4118]

Liam McFarland yes! exactly my thoughts

[@MaddieM52]

I thought that too😀😀

[@AMan2245]

Jason Bell, I agree. Lord of the manor disheveled, drunk walking home late at night on the moor, with dog after night of Byronic debauchery. Wow, what a pleasure to watch two creative minds collaborate.

[@tianyima8642]

3:00 "I'm Benedict" Of Course you ARE so humble

[@bunni3948]

Benedict is just like an all around handsome guy?? Like he’s so humble and charming it’s just truly amazing. He’s also quite hilarious!

[@harrypotter1547]

Couldn't agree more!

[@cryalot378]

Benedict: *doing the "trust fall" into the water* the photographer: "Jesus..."

[@LifeInPink999]

He couldn't make Benedict take of that bow tie in his first attempt, so he figured the perfect scenario to make it happen. Bless this photographer!

[@RoseRobot21]

Omg how can i see that only now ! He's absolutely stunning with those outfit and the look in his eyes on the first photographies wow ! Love Benedict Cumberbath so much

[@BrandonTigrett]

When you get that kind of collaboration between subject and photographer, the possibilities are endless! Benedict was amazing. Really good seeing him embrace the process and add his input. The fact it was his idea to get in the water?! Amazing!

[@radu01]

Benedict is amazing..big fan

[@daliasaravia1443]

isn’t Benedict just SO BREATHTAKING?

[@veronikametelkova1672]

Im here 5 years later, but hes so handsome oh my

[@ewwwitscosso2292]

Imagine you’re walking your dog in the park When you look over and see Barnabee Custercream in a tree

[@Anull1889]

7:23 well hello sexy :O ♥ Is it just me or is he rly more and more handsome every day?

[@Ana-ll4th]

True🤍

[@sophiawang9406]

Here I am falling in love with this dude in 2020

[@rosiewalker2455]

What a great photographer, so casual, down to earth and professional at same time. He makes Cumberbatch feel comfortable and treats his crew so well. Bet those pics are wonderful!

[@milfsfilms]

7:22 still has me *_swooning_* no matter how many times i rewatch it

[@iqbalbara8538]

Skylar Faller can i try to make you swoon?

[@milfsfilms]

I Bara you can try but will you succeed?

[@iqbalbara8538]

Skylar Faller yeah, i know. probably cant which is sad forme, i just adore your eyes in the picture

[@iqbalbara8538]

Bookish Isabela Louise no replies. okay i failed.

[@milfsfilms]

[@Achtungmiche]

I appreciate this, as a photographer. Thanks for sharing! Benedict is funny, professional & a true talent! Great shots/ideas!

[@wandadavison5933]

You're just so versatile and photogenic and amusing and accommodating. Extremely watchable. WOW

[@mossy642]

It’s the middle of the day, he’s in a forest, he’s wearing white tie dinner suit. There’s smoke, he has dogs. I’m not sure if I’m more confused or in love.

[@gachafandoms6417]

Benedict is such a child when he jumps/falls in.😊

[@ericofthewest24]

10:45 I love what Benedict had to say about collaborations! He really nailed it!! He must've been such a joy to work with =D

[@MrPanohead]

Great video, nice insight of how a shoot like this works. He is a great teacher and gets his ideas across with very little words.

[@gilliancheng4058]

he looks perfect in every kinds of outfit

[@lenaa-]

3:02 "oh hello, I am Benedict" NO SHIT SHERLOCK😂

[@minoosanoori3633]

Could we talk about the amount of aesthetic in this video?? I mean, dude, that's totally art..

[@mishwinters7771]

I am a very big fan of Jason's work. I love his style and love looking at his work on Instagram. I am also a big fan of Benedict so watching this is so awesome. I love that this video shows the process of the shoot and most of it was just them having fun. I aspire to get to Jason's level!

[@hussainhijazi4690]

Jason Bell is a master of bringing vision to life... Also so refreshing to learn from such talented, charismatic and down to earth character. A role model for me to follow... Cumberbatch is also very professional yet fun and easy going. Great video, thanks for sharing!

[@tianyima8642]

10:24 he's so pretty I'm gonna cry :////

[@J-Gx]

This was a joy to watch. Great job!

[@AndrewConway]

Had my attention the whole video... Good job all around.

[@AndreaEllenG]

Love to see your process. Thanks for sharing!

[@nessadeans377]

I honestly just want to have a conversation him. I want to know what he thinks of the world...

[@ConstantinSPurcea]

That's what makes people like Benedict special. They go above and beyond. He didn't have to jump. He did though.

[@captainfood8480]

when he put the collar up i died

[@MsSus007]

So wonderful. Love when he introduces himself to the guy at 3:00. Just like anyone should :)

[@rebeccaq224]

the beginning reminds me of sherlock and the hounds and the tree jump. so many memories and the season 4 coming in january with all the teaser trailers. Im overwhelmed dsfnskdfjs

[@elenamira9651]

I can't help but keep smiling watching him all the time. I love u Benedict💗💕😊😍

[@phaseone]

[@Glianja]

This is amazing!!! (But did no one really thoroughly checked the pond before he hopped in backwards??? I mean: stumps, stones, whatever? So much could have gone wrong...) But boy, am I glad he did go in!!!

[@JerseyNumber08]

Worms of all sorts!

[@viperstinger77]

I bet there's plenty of bird shit in that pond
