Oh boy, he's tricky. I'm prone to see NiSe functions. At least in his roles he can certainly take NiSe kind of penetrative, magnetic look on his face. And maybe FeTi. In MBTI I've seen him put under INFJ, and actually I don't think it as impossible that he was NiFe. But really, I don't know. Actors are difficult, especially genius ones like him.

MsLajlaa : I was thinking that too about the penetrative look but when I watched closer, I saw that he had it mostly when he fixated something without looking around, while doing a front scowl and more so in a fictional setting that could easily be acted and post-produced. He does not seems to be that penetrative in interviews and when he has to look to another object, his eyes seems to brush more than to do swift turns, and they are bright in a somewhat Ne naive way and can rest in their socket (third interview). I am not definitive though, actors can be tough indeed.
The aspect that I found the most puzzling is the judging functions order, he seems to have quite a rigid position and somewhat face-centric posture so he could be a J-lead. His flow is a bit eccentric, self-parodying and could may be attributed to Ne.

I don't see the exaggeration that is usually there for an Fe lead. He doesn't come across as a TiNe to me either. To me, TiNe have these distinctive dreamy looking eyes - very soft. Benedict's are more present, and although they have a softness to them, it isn't an overriding feature of his face. Ne... again his eyes seem so steady and more focused than most Ne-leads that I have seen videos of, plus he doesn't have the animated quality you would expect. So, by process of elimination (because I am still not confident in 'seeing' Si leads) I assume the best choice is SiFe. He kind of looks through his brow. To me he has a similar demeanor to the examples in the Larin Series thread.
To me, this video shows quite a bit of his thinking process. Lots of brow action, looking down (almost closing his eyes) in order to introvert, blinking. He appears to be quite natural and comfortable in this interview and the answers seem to be unrehearsed.
