Sherlock co-creator Steven Moffat has revealed that the return of Moriarty had been planned as far back as “before the second season”.
Fleming, Sky Atlantic’s upcoming series about the life of James Bond author Ian Fleming, will launch next month.
Sherlock’s Lara Pulver plays the future Mrs Fleming, Lady Ann O’Neill in Sky Atlantic’s new four-part drama about the life of Ian Fleming, which follows the James Bond author (Dominic Cooper) from underachieving playboy to key figure in the Admiralty, drawing parallels between the writer and his iconic creation.
Sherlock’s back! No, not the Cumberbatchy one. The papery one made of words. The original and best. And in Titan Books’ The Further Encounters of Sherlock Holmes, the Great Detective and his companion are solving crimes far more outrageous than those created by common murderers or master blackmailers. The result is as entertaining as the stories are ambitious.
Sherlock co-creator Steven Moffat has responded to claims that the show’s direction became more character-focused and less about solving mysteries in the recent third series.
More men have played Ian Fleming on-screen than have portrayed his key creation James Bond 007. At least nine in total. Charles Dance (Goldeneye, 1989), Leo Fenn and Jason Connery (Spymaker, 1990), Ben Daniels (Bondmaker, 2005), Skip Goeree (Bernhard – Scoundrel of Orange, 2010), Tobias Menzies (Any Human Heart, 2010), James D’Arcy (Age Of Heroes, 2011), Jeremy Crutchley (A Caribbean Mystery, 2013) and now Dominic Cooper in Ecosse Films’ new four-part Sky Atlantic / BBC America series Fleming.
Sherlock co-creator Steven Moffat has revealed that there would have to be “a pressing narrative reason” to produce a Sherlock movie for cinema release rather than for television.
Sherlock co-creator Steven Moffat has revealed that Mary Morstan will definitely be appearing in Series 4.
Andrew Scott has revealed that Moriarty’s return to Sherlock was “always planned”.
Pass that popcorn-filled Deerstalker, would you? Because with that filmic running length, a principal duo of Hollywood stars, and the fact that each 90-minute feature is advertised with the hashtaggable anticipation of your average blockbuster, every episode of Sherlock is less a TV drama and more a movie that has escaped into your living room. So it stands to reason that it should be given a fittingly filmic score.
