Benedict Cumberbatch is calling out Netflix and he’s looking for answers as to why his new movie was shown in theaters for such a limited amount of time.
The 45-year-old actor stars in the streaming service’s new movie The Power of the Dog and he received a Best Actor nomination at the Oscars for his work in the film.
