Due to the various roles she could pick, choosing a career path also was up to her. In a rather humorous manner, she also discussed just how many opportunities she can take up. Rather, many of those that she would not either. Unfortunately for Benedict Cumberbatch, that included his viral clip fromThe Hobbitas well.

Claire Foy is Amused by Benedict Cumberbatch

While speaking to Josh Horowitz during his podcast,Happy Sad Confused,Claire Foyopened up about possible career prospects that different types of movies can provide for her. When asked about choosing a role similar to that of Andy Serkis in thePlanet of the Apesfranchise, she was more than ecstatic about it.

“I would do motion capture and then where was I that I saw Benedict being the dragon in Lord of the Rings? I don’t want that to be out there. Have you seen that clip?”

She admitted that motion capture was something she would be willing to do if the opportunity presented itself. However, she would not want something similar that happened to Benedict Cumberbatch to happen to her as well. His behind-the-scenes clip while playing Smaug inThe Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaugwas one that became absolutely viral. His movements were ironically funny and to have that outside in the world for Foy would be rather embarrassing, to say the least.
