Benedict Cumberbatch Shares How He Ended Up in THAT Wild Moment with a Puppet in Eric

Editor's note: The following contains major spoilers for Eric. From creator and writer Abi Morgan, the Netflix series Eric follows the downward spiral of a father struggling to cope with the loss of his son. Vincent (Benedict Cumberbatch) is the creator of the highly popular children’s television show Good Day Sunshine, where he focuses all his attention. When his nine-year-old son disappears on his way to school, Vincent’s guilt convinces him that if he can just get his son’s drawing of a blue monster puppet named Eric onto TV then his son will come home. But the longer that takes, the more desperate his self-loathing makes him and the more difficult he is for everyone in his life, including his wife (Gaby Hoffman), friends, and co-workers, to be around. While Eric is the story of a father’s grief over a lack of answers about what’s happened to his child, rather than turning to the family and friends he has spent so much time alienating himself from, he looks to the work that he’s focused so much of his attention on. Instead of supporting his wife, Cassie, through her own grief, he’s consumed with perfecting the look and sound of a larger-than-life puppet that his son created as a means of connecting with his father in a way that would be more likely to catch his attention. During this interview with Collider, co-stars Cumberbatch and Hoffman discussed getting to dive deep into the emotions of the story, getting into some quite memorable situations with a giant puppet, the thrill of the challenge of a project like this, what it’s like to shoot a fight scene with a puppet, and the technical challenges of the puppeteering. Hoffman also talked about forming a family with your collaborators when you’re making a TV series, while Cumberbatch shared what he most enjoyed about the experience of working with filmmaker Wes Anderson.
