... Steve McQueen's Twelve Years a Slave: link. He will play the plantation owner who buys Chiwetel Ejiofor's character and is won over by his engineering skills.

Not my cuppa, this film, but what makes me all tingly inside is: BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH and MICHAEL FASSBENDER in one movie together! How awesome is that? Not planning to see it, very, VERY much not my cuppa, but CUMBERBATCH and FASSBENDER! In ONE movie! TOGETHER! Eep!
