Benedict Cumberbatch Responds To STAR WARS Trailer Speculation; Is He In The Movie?

It's been reported that the voice in the Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens trailer belongs to Andy Serkis, but many fans still believe we were hearing Sherlock star and possible Doctor Strange, Benedict Cumberbatch. "Yeah, I can put that one to bed can't I?" Benedict Cumberbatch asks in the video above after turning to his publicist on the red carpet of the at Evening Standard Theatre Awards earlier today. "I mean, I am NOT the voice of the Star Wars trailer, nor am I the hooded character with the rather cool new lightsaber, so...no. No, no." Asked whether he's in the film somewhere though, Cumberbatch once again answered "No", but quickly walked away. Thoughts?
