Benedict Cumberbatch Taking Off His Shirt Is The Only Photo You Need To See

The Only Photo You Need To See

If you're a Benedict Cumberbatch fan (and by now, who isn't?) then the photo we're about to show you will make your day, nay, your week.

The "Sherlock" star isn't one for stripping down (unless you count when he takes off his scarf) but the 38-year-old Brit agreed to pose for a photo while taking off his shirt—all in the name of charity.

The photo is actually a recreation of the iconic scene in the BBC's "Pride and Prejudice," in which Mr. Darcy emerges from a lake in an unbuttoned white shirt.

Lucky for Benny fans, "The Imitation Game" star's black-and-white shot is a bit more revealing—showcasing the actor's lean torso (rawr!).

The pic is being displayed as part of an exhibition marking the 10th anniversary of the Give Up Clothes For Good campaign and features other celebrities such as Jerry Hall, Liam Neeson, Mel C and Charlie Hunnam. The photos went on display on Tuesday at La Galleria Pall Mall in London where they will be kept until Sept. 20.

So if you want to see Benedict almost shirtless close up, now's your chance (or better yet, check out all the adorable photos of him at TIFF 2014).

He's such a stud:
