Benedict Cumberbatch Is Alan Turing In The FirstImitation GameTrailer

Get a first look at Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing , reckoner scientist , mathematician , father of artificial intelligence operation and the mortal who crack the German Enigma codification . The Imitation Game appears to focus on the latter of Turing ’s accomplishments , which makes good sense as solving the Germans ’ “ uncrackable ” code helped the Allies defeat the Axis Powers .

regrettably , Turing ’s fib has a tragical closing . The scientist was wedge to suffer chemical castration for being jocund ( a crime at the time in Britain ) , an routine that allegedly drove him to suicide . It was a horrifying act done to a brilliant thinker .

We hope Cumberbatch ’s motion-picture show will reflect the Einstein of Turing ’s work because Cumberbatch ’s last biographical moviewas not so great — not that it was his fault . The Imitation Game will premiere in theatre on November 21st .
