Here’s something that’ll make you feel nice and old on a Tuesday afternoon: it has been 14 years since Guy Ritchie last visited 221b Baker Street with 2011’s Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows<\/a>. What’s more, it’s now been five years since Sherlock Holmes 3’s mooted Christmas 2020 release<\/a> came and passed. But now, three years after plans were first teased for two Holmes TV spin-offs<\/a>, the game is finally almost afoot again as Guy Ritchie’s Hero Fiennes Tiffin led Young Sherlock prepares to make its Prime Video debut. For your first look at the Lock, Stock<\/a> filmmaker’s Holmes origin series, check out the newly released photos from the show below;<\/p>\n

Well you certainly wouldn’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to deduce that Young Sherlock looks like one to watch, would you? With Hero Fiennes Tiffin looking dapper as a suited-and-booted young Holmes opposite Wheel Of Time<\/a> star D\u00f3nal Finn’s James Moriarty (yes, the Moriarty), an extraordinarily moustachioed Colin Firth gadding about as the also extraordinarily named Sir Bucephalus Hodge, and no shortage of Baker Street irregulars all around, Ritchie’s take on a rebellious young Holmes’ earliest adventures looks to be a typically stylish, kinetic romp from the prodigiously booked-and-busy Brit auteur.<\/p>\n

The official synopsis for the show, which elsewhere also stars Zine Tseng (3 Body Problem<\/a>), Joseph Fiennes (The Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/a>), Natascha McElhone (Halo<\/a>), and Max Irons (The Wife<\/a>), reads as follows: “Young Sherlock\u00a0follows the origin story of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle\u2019s beloved detective in an explosive re-imagining of this iconic character\u2019s early days. Sherlock Holmes is a disgraced young man \u2013 raw and unfiltered \u2013 when he finds himself wrapped up in a murder case that threatens his liberty. His first ever case unravels a globe-trotting conspiracy that changes his life forever. Unfolding in 1870s Oxford and adventuring abroad, the series will expose the early antics of the anarchic adolescent who is yet to evolve into Baker Street\u2019s most renowned resident.”<\/p>\n

While we still hope that Guy Ritchie may yet one day complete his Sherlock Holmes<\/a> trilogy, we’d be lying if we said that Young Sherlock doesn’t present itself as a pretty damn cool-looking project to tide us over. We’ll find out whether or not it’s no shit Sherlock<\/a> when Young Sherlock hits Prime Video sometime in 2026.
