Hero Fiennes Tiffin was supported by his famous family as he attended the premiere of his big-budget new series on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The actor, 28, who is the nephew of acclaimed stars Ralph and Joseph Fiennes<\/a>, has taken on the starring role in Guy Ritchie<\/a>‘s show Young Sherlock<\/a>, playing an earlier incarnation of the genius detective.<\/p>\n

Attending the premiere at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, Hero was joined by his uncle Joseph, who appears in the show as Sherlock’s adventurous father, and his co-star Donal Finn, who plays his future nemesis\u00a0James Moriarty.<\/p>\n

Joseph was also supported by his wife\u00a0Maria Dolores Dieguez and their two daughters Eva and Isabel at the premiere.<\/p>\n

Guy, who is both a director and executive producer of the series, was also in attendance for the premiere, alongside his wife of 10 years Jacqui Ainsley.<\/p>\n

Jacqui opted for a glamorous nude ruch\u00e9 dress and black pointed-toe heels as she posed for snaps at the premiere.<\/p>\n

The actor, who is the nephew of acclaimed stars Ralph and Joseph Fiennes, has taken on the starring role in Guy Ritchie’s show, playing an earlier incarnation of the genius detective<\/p>\n

\"Attending <\/p>\n

Attending the premiere at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, Hero was joined by his co-star Donal Finn, who plays his future nemesis James Moriarty<\/p>\n

Hero leads a star-studded cast including Zine Tseng, D\u00f3nal Finn, Max Irons, Joseph Fiennes, Natascha McElhone, Colin Firth, Adam James, Numan Acar, Rachel Shelley and Simon Delaney.<\/p>\n

Joseph plays Silas Holmes, the adventurous father of Sherlock and Mycroft, while Natascha appears as their artistic mother Cordelia.<\/p>\n

Prime Video revealed: ‘The thrilling series, brought to life by visionary director and executive producer Guy Ritchie, charts the origin story of Sherlock Holmes in an irreverent, action-laden mystery that follows the iconic detective’s early adventures.’<\/p>\n

Young Sherlock will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries on March 4.<\/p>\n

Adapted from Andrew Lane’s Young Sherlock Holmes novels, the official synopsis reads: ‘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.<\/p>\n

‘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’s most renowned resident.’<\/p>\n

In typical Sherlock fashion, this series focuses on the mystery surrounding the death of Sherlock’s sister, which\u00a0led to his mother Cordelia being admitted to an asylum, his father Silas working abroad, and Holmes himself being sent to boarding school.<\/p>\n

The show also sees Sherlock and Moriarty join forces in a bid to solve the mystery, showing the pair’s friendship before they would go on to becoming bitter enemies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite his famous heritage, Hero himself recently confessed he spent ‘years’ being embarrassed of his famous surname, and spent much of his upbringing craving ‘a normal childhood.’<\/p>\n

The actor\u00a0also flew in the face of many stars who hit back at claims that they are ‘nepo-babies,’ instead saying it’s ‘fair’ others make that comparison.<\/p>\n

As well as two famous uncles in the acting world, Hero grew up with many of his loved ones working in the film industry, as his mother Martha was a director, and his father George worked as a cinematographer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hero started his career when he played a younger incarnation of Tom Riddle, also known as Lord Voldemort, in Harry Potter<\/a>\u00a0and the Half Blood Prince, a surprise move given his uncle Ralph was starring as the Dark Lord himself.<\/p>\n

Speaking about his famous roots, Hero told Tatler: ‘I used to be so embarrassed of that. Maybe I still am a tiny bit. Hero Beauregard Faulkner Fiennes Tiffin is a lot.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I mean, even Hero’s a lot. My brother and I used to say, ‘What’s wrong with John and Mark? What’s the next kid going to be called, Batman?’<\/p>\n

‘But no, it’s a great conversation starter. It’s memorable. I only hope I can live up to it.’<\/p>\n

He added: ‘As I get older, I appreciate it more, but when I was younger, I think I just wanted to be more normal. Now I feel nothing but pride.’<\/p>\n

Hero also acknowledged that much of his breakthrough in the acting world has come from his famous family.<\/p>\n

He said: ‘I don’t feel any sense of it getting my back up. I think it’s so fair.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I would never be an actor if it wasn’t for my family being in the industry and I’m extremely lucky that they were, and nepotism is the appropriate word for why I do what I do.’<\/p>\n

‘If someone told me that I don’t deserve it, then I definitely would defend myself. But no, I’m so lucky to have had the opportunities.’<\/p>\n

Hero admitted that he spent years trying to avoid the ‘eccentric’ side of his famous upbringing, before he was offered the role alongside his uncle in Harry Potter.<\/p>\n

He shared: ‘I think there was an element of me wanting to have a normal childhood and I didn’t want to chase the eccentric, Fiennes side of things\u2026 and then Harry Potter came along.’<\/p>\n

Reflecting on starring in the 2009 film, he said: ‘I was a bit like, ‘I’m not going to get it, Mum. There’s loads of people, like real actors, who practise acting and they’re more likely to get the role.’<\/p>\n

‘Eventually I got it, and I was really surprised that I did. And the experience was nothing but fun.’<\/p>\n

Hero is set to find a much wider fanbase when he stars in Young Sherlock, and he said: ‘The pros massively outweigh the cons, but there are some cons. I never wanted to be famous, and my comforts are quite reliant on anonymity and staying local to where I’m from and being able to go into my local pub.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘It really would be quite sad not to be able to do those things as much or as easily without being recognised.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘If that does happen and it’s harder for me to walk around, then so be it. I’ve played Sherlock Holmes\u00a0for Guy Ritchie. It was worth it.’<\/p>\n

Hero also told Radio Times: ‘I completely understand the intrigue about nepotism and the opportunities you get for and from your family.<\/p>\n

‘I’d be the first to admit that I don’t think I’d be here if it wasn’t for them. But I’m not going to get a ‘nepo baby’ tattoo, or put it in my bio!<\/p>\n

‘I appreciate how lucky I’ve been to get a foot in the door, but I feel I’ve proved that I deserve to be here through the work that I’ve done. I’m not shy about talking about these things.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hero Fiennes Tiffin was supported by his famous family as he attended the premiere of his big-budget new…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":443796,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,97,96,127399,120397,478,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-443795","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-dailymail","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-guy-ritchie","12":"tag-joseph-fiennes","13":"tag-tvshowbiz","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=443795"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443795\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/443796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=443795"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=443795"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=443795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
