‘Sherlock’ Producer Teases A Potential Comeback With Benedict Cumberbatch

‘Sherlock’ with Benedict Cumberbatch has ‘a future.’

The producer of the popular BBC series ‘Sherlock,’ Sue Vertue, said the brand is expected to make a comeback.

“We love that show and there is a future for it. One day. Maybe. If everyone wants to do it,” Vertue shared with Deadline on the blue carpet at the Amazon Prime Video Trailblazers event in London.

She added, “I’ve still got the set in storage somewhere, which is probably rotten, to be honest with you. It’s just getting everybody aligned, it’s getting the actors to want to do it.”

‘Sherlock’ co-creator and star Mark Gatiss raised expectations for a film earlier this year. He told Deadline, “We’d like to make a film but trying to get everyone together is very difficult.”

Benedict Cumberbatch acted in the series with Martin Freeman, who played John Watson. They last appeared together on screen in 2017 in their final episode called ‘The Final Problem.’

Steven Moffat also explained why in a July interview with Metro.co.uk, “As I’ve said before, I’ll do it tomorrow. I mean, Arthur Conan Doyle wrote 60 novels. It’s not a format that will wear out. Sherlock Holmes will never wear out. I’d love to do it again. I would absolutely love to again. I’m easy, but you need to get the two big stars. That’s the problem.”

“People think you can just wave a wand. It’s incredibly difficult to get people interested, and get films made. I remember talking to Edgar Wright about ‘Ant-Man,’ into which he put eight years of his life and then didn’t make it. Eight years is not short of a decade,” Gatiss also said last year.

‘Sherlock’ successfully brought Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories to modern times, but it was a complex show to follow. Each season had only three or four long episodes, similar in length to movies.

New seasons came out every few years. The series ended in 2017. By then, Benedict Cumberbatch was busy as Doctor Strange in the Marvel movies, and Martin Freeman had finished his role in ‘The Hobbit’ trilogy.
