Meet Benedict Cumber-wax! The Sherlock star helps to sculpt his new wax doppelganger
Benedict Cumberbatch rolled up his sleeves and helped to make some finishing touches to the face of his impressive doppelganger ahead of it's arrival at Madame Tussauds.
The Sherlock star posed for photos with the model as he smoothed away any cheeky wrinkles and sculpted his replica to perfection.
Meet Benedict Cumberbatch's waxy doppelganger
Although still in the early stages, and not yet the colour of actual skin, Benedict’s waxy counterpart looks identical to the real actor.
When the star’s double gets all dressed up in his dashing black suited look it will be hard to tell the two good looking chaps apart.
Madame Tussauds announced the news that a Bennedict Cumberbatch figure would be gracing their waxwork hall of fame last year, after pleading fans bombarded them with requests.
But it’s not just his loyal followers who are looking forward to posing with the museum's new recruit.
Fans of the Star Trek actor will have to form an orderly queue behind the real man himself.
The 38-year-old said that he is so excited at the prospect of meeting his doppelganger so that he can "finally photobomb" his own face.
