Benedict Cumberbatch wouldn't take controversial Zoolander 2 non-binary role today:
"There was a lot of contention around the role, understandably now. And I think in this era, my role would never be performed by anybody other than a trans actor," he stated.
"But I remember at the time not thinking of it necessarily in that regard, and it being more about two dinosaurs, two heteronormative clichés not understanding this new diverse world. But it backfired a little bit. But it was lovely to meet you in that brief moment and to work with Ben [Stiller] and Owen [Wilson]."Netflix
