No, not literally though. Benedict Cumberbatch is set to begin work on the TV adaptation of Matt Haig’s best-selling novel How to Stop Time, playing the lead role of Tom Hazard. Tomas Alfredson, who directed Cumberbatch in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011), is on board to helm the six-part series that is being scripted by DC Moore.
The genre-bending novel, part love story, part spy thriller, follows Tom (Cumberbatch), a seemingly ordinary man who suffers from a very rare condition called anageria, which has kept him alive for centuries. Throughout history, Tom and men and women like him, have been feared, misunderstood and persecuted.
