He's currently starring in a theatre production of the much loved Shakespeare play Hamlet.
Enjoying some downtime ahead of his next performance, Benedict Cumberbatch ditched his royal robes when he was pictured out in London on Friday.

Putting on a dressed down display, the 39-year-old actor appeared to be in good spirits as he journeyed along clutching onto a canvas bag.

Benedict, who will star in the tragedy till the end of October, looked laid back in a grey printed T-shirt teamed with jeans and white trainers.

With his curly mane styled in a side part, Cumberbatch topped his look with a navy jacket as he accessorised with a silver face watch which featured black straps.
A stylish rucksack finished The Imitation Game star's outfit as he raised a smile while passing waiting photographers.

The previous day Benedict cut a less melancholic and manic figure than his Shakespearean character, as he enjoyed a low-key stroll through London.

Looking slightly dishevelled yet casually stylish, the actor appeared up-beat as he enjoyed a few quiet moments away from the Barbican theatre, where his play is sold out for the entirety of its run.

With his wavy hair slightly tousled and a warm beverage in his hand, the actor - who received an avalanche of plaudits for his role as the troubled Danish prince - appeared to be basking in his glowing reviews.
