In an interview, Benedict Cumberbatch opened up about his thoughts about Sherlock's personality, "I thought he should be more - not stiff but like a guy who does a lot of yoga. It's that strength where people look weak but their core is strong. He's incredibly poised. Back straight. His head leans to the side." He further added, "There's this thing about him being very reserved and austere. I wanted him to be a bit more rock star. There is something almost boyish - a joy about him. I wanted him to smile."

Speaking to about his character, Cumberbatch shared, "Oddly, I think Sherlock's temperament is more shaped by the fact that he is human and trying to be superhuman. The amount of stuff that we call polite civilization is a huge distraction to this man who has to think on an unparalleled level of complexities. It's not really that the world is stupid, it's just that for him to be clever he has to really drown out a lot of noise. What he permanently gets surprised by and what I think is his real weakness, is sometimes not seeing what's right in front of him - he's not inhuman, he is human and he is fallible."

Stream all four seasons of Sherlock exclusively on Lionsgate Play, starting February 5!
