Alexander Siddig in Trailer for Benedict Cumberbatch’s THE FIFTH ESTATE

By  | 

The trailer for The Fifth Estate was released earlier this week, and alongside stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Laura Linney, Stanley Tucci, and Daniel Brühl we get a quick glimpse of Alexander Siddig!

Sid has a small role in the film, which tells the story of Wikileaks founder Julian Assuage (Cumberbatch) and reveals the quest to expose the deceptions and corruptions of power that turned an Internet upstart into the 21st century’s most fiercely debated organization.

The Fifth Estate arrives in theaters October 18.

Mel started a fan site for Siddig in 1996, as a way to learn HTML and to promote his charitable endeavors. In 1998, he proposed that it become his official fan site; she quickly agreed and a long-distance friendship was born. You can reach Mel at mel[at]sidcity[dot]net.
