Martin Freeman is no stranger to massive properties, whether it be The Office, The Hobbit, or Sherlock. But the Emmy winner says Black Panther is unlike anything else he’s ever been involved in.

During the latest episode of PeopleTV’s Couch Surfing, Freeman stopped by to discuss his role as Everett Ross and the Marvel film’s record-breaking success.

“People were hungry for it,” he says. “There were a lot of people who were dying to see it. It’s not often that people come up to you and say, ‘I’ve seen this film seven times. I take my mom, my dad.’ So, that’s rare in itself. As well as being a very good film, it also feels like a bit of a moment.”
