I really want to see Lupita Nyong'o's performance. She really shines on screen.

I saw 12 years at a test screening earlier this year and it was really great, but needed editing. Q. Wallis doesn't speak in it, she's barely in it. Outside of Ejiofer and Fassbender, newcomer Lupito Nyong was amazing.

Cumberbatch doesn't have too much screentime so no. He's pretty good, but nothing will happen with him. Sorry. Even Paul Dano has more screentime (and makes more of an impact) than him.

Quvenzhane Wallis doesn't have a single line in the movie (she might have said the word bye? not sure) LOLLLLLL. She's in like one or two scenes, no lines of dialogue I'm pretty sure.

I'm reading the book right now and it is clear how heavy this film is going to be. It's going to provide stellar performances by both Ejiofor and Fassbender (both in iconic roles) and some real chances for Cumberbatch depending on how much of the focus his (also important) character gets. Not to mention if Quvenzhane is in the role (renamed) that I think she is, she may have a stellar scene (comparable to Henson & Davis' nominated supporting roles).

I'm calling it now, Oscar nominations in: Picture, Director, Actor, Supporting and Adapted Screenplay with a good shot at Cinematography and Editing as well.
