The pair have been cast in the forthcoming film by Sam Mendes that will be set amidst World War I.

As the title 1917 indicates, the film will take place during the height of the war and focus on the events of a single day.

The Spectre director also wrote the script for the drama with Krysty Wilson-Cairns and will produce alongside Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Partners through its DreamWorks Pictures brand.

Captain Fantastic actor, George MacKay, and Dean-Charles Cahapman of Game of Thrones will star as two young British soldiers amongst the cast of Cumberbatch, Firth, Mark Strong, Andrew Scott, and Richard Madden.

1917 will start shooting on 1 April in locations in England and Scotland, with a limited release set for 25 December before receiving a wide release two weeks later on 10 January 2020.

You just might have had to.

The pair brought to life the characters of Sookie Stackhouse and Bill Compton, and we’re such a perfect couple that they ended up getting married in real life!

But according to the creator of the vampire show, the cast almost looked very different.

“Benedict Cumberbatch came and read for Bill,” Alan Ball revealed while adding that Jessica Chastain tried out for Sookie.

In addition, Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence was up for a part as a were-panther in the show’s 3rd season.

“She was great but all the women in the room, because she was going to be Jason’s girlfriend, and she was 17 at the time, were like, ‘No that’s gross.’”

Just as well it worked out as it did as we could not have imagined the series any other bloody way!

Twitter users decided to really have it at the Avengers‘ stars, with one of them comparing Anthony Mackie (Falcon) to “a bug with buck teeth,” and other saying that Sebastian Stan (Winter Soldier) “looks like a potato.”  Benedict Cumberbatch also got the taste of Twitter’s rudeness, since @Notorious_MAX wrote that the Doctor Strange star “always looks like he’s had an allergic reaction to bad shrimp.”

Twitter delivered when it was time for Captain America as well.

“Perhaps Chris Evans is in truth a great actor, but he plays Captain America like a big dumb hunk of s—,” @obstinatepupper wrote, and Evans found it so entertaining that he barely could finish the tweet.

Tom Hiddleston, Scarlett Johansson, Winston Duke, Elizabeth Olsen, Don Cheadle, Dave Bautista, Tom Holland, Samuel L. Jackson, Paul Rudd, Karen Gillan, Paul Bettany, Chadwick Boseman, and Chris Pratt also took part in the video.
