Dexter Fletcher remains optimistic about the future of the film starring Robert Downey Jr.
It seems unbelievable but it’s been 11 years since we saw a new version of the most famous detective in history in the cinema (and no, we’re not talking about ‘Detective Pikachu’). This time, it starred Robert Downey Jr. (who will return for ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’) along with Jude Law and, not only was it a box office success, but critics and audiences alike applauded Guy Ritchie’s take on the character created by Arthur Conan Doyle.
Two years later, in 2011the second installment would arrive, ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows’with the same cast (except Rachel McAdams, who only makes a cameo), and we would meet the protagonist’s archenemy: Professor Moriarty, played by Jared Harris. But this sequel was not so well received and, adding to the tight schedule of the two protagonists, the third installment of Sherlock Holmes was announced in 2018 and has been postponed indefinitely. But the problem is that we will not have the whole team again, because Guy Ritchie, director of the first two installments, gets out of the car, leaving his director’s chair to Dexter Fletcher.
What is the release date of ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’? And your synopsis? Will Moriarty return? Which Arthur Conan Doyle book will you adapt? Will ‘Sherlock Holmes 4’ anticipate us?
‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ release date
The release date of Sherlock Holmes 3 was set in December 2020, but the schedule of its protagonists is very tight: Robert Downey Jr. with his participation in Marvel movies and Jude Law in the ‘Fantastic Animals’ saga. So the film has been postponed, and it seems that it has fallen into oblivion… until now.
Director Dexter Fletcher has admitted in an interview to Collider that the pandemic “derailed” the movie train, but he does not lose hope. “I think it will be done. I think it has to be done,” he continued. “Unfortunately, I don’t know what the timeline is on that, but I think it should be done. Is fantastic. I think it’s all about all the right people being in the right place at the right time.either. I think it’s that”.
For now, ‘Sherlock Holmes’ will expand its universe on HBO Max with two series produced by Robert Dwoney Jr. already in development.
‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ Synopsis
For now, the synopsis of ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ is far from clear. In ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows’, we saw Sherlock fall off a cliff with his archenemy, Professor Moriarty. At the end of the movie, we saw Sherlock survive the fall… but we don’t know Moriarty’s fate.

This raises the following: who will be the villain of this third installment? Although we assume that Moriarty also survived the fall (he is just as smart as Sherlock), this third installment could introduce a new archenemy of the detective. It could be Charles Augustus Milverton, known blackmailer; Henry ‘Holy’ Peter’, one of the few who has managed to outsmart the detective; or even Professor Coram.
Also the question is: what book or story will adapt ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’? Or will they prefer to go more on their own, as in the previous two installments, taking pieces of Conan Doyle’s stories and mixing them with original proposals?
‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ Cast
The cast of ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ is confirmed. At least its two protagonists, Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, who have already spoken about their return to the franchise 11 years later.

jared harris, who played Moriarty in ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows’, stated some time ago that, despite the fact that there was already a draft of the film’s script, he did not appear in it. There is no doubt that it is his presence that is the big question mark. If his return happens, it will probably be a surprise that, if the publicity of the film does not decide to reveal it before, we will have to wait until we see it to find out.
‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ Director
The director of ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ was going to be Guy Ritchie again. The British was in charge of directing the first two installments and wanted to return to close the trilogy. But he has finally been replaced by Dexter Fletcher, director of ‘Rocketman’.
“I’m not going to ignore what Guy Ritchie did so brilliantly in the previous two movies. There will be elements of those, but I also intend to bring my own voice to the project, so it will be something totally different. I guess that’s the idea of ​​bringing in someone new, right? We’ll see what happens”
The screenwriter of ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ will be James Coynealmost new screenwriter, who is rewriting the original of the film in which Drew Pearce, screenwriter of ‘Iron Man 3’, already worked.
‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ Trailer
For now, we do not have a trailer for ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’.
