"Sherlock" Series Four & Five Confirmed!!!

The amazing BBC 1 drama "Sherlock" has been confirmed for a fourth and fifth series by the shows co-creator, Steven Moffat. He said in a recent interview that both himself and other co-creator Mark Gatiss have mapped out the plots for series 4 and 5.
Series 4 is expected to air on the TV as quickly as the end of this year as it has been rumoured that filming is set to begin sometime this Summer. The BBC are demanding it ASAP after the fans reactions to the last series that just finished last week. This is good news because it means fans don't have to wait two years for another series.
I'm so happy to hear that there will be two more seasons of the amazing drama starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as John Watson. It's amazing show and I would watch it forever with Cumberbatch and Freeman sticking to the roles.

Benedict Cumberbatch Confirms "Sherlock: Series 4"

Even though filming on the third series of "Sherlock" has just began, Benedict Cumberbatch confirmed that a series 4 has already been commissioned and he commented that further series could be possible. Even though Martin Freeman is tied down with "The Hobbit" franchise, he's still got time to film a wee BBC drama........FANTASTIC!!! 
Here's what Sherlock Holmes himself said,

"We've agreed to two more series but I could get into trouble for saying that. All I know at the moment is I'm doing these three [episodes of the upcoming series] and another three. It just depends on Martin and I's availability, how long we can keep it going. It depends on Steven's ability. I'd love to keep it going."

More Updates On Status Of "Sherlock Holmes 3"

Earlier this week "Sherlock Holmes" producer Dan Lin, was asked about the status of the next "Holmes" sequel. He was asked when he thinks filming will begin, 

"It’s still in development. Drew Pearce is working on the script and Downey, as you know, is still finishing Iron Man 3 so we’re waiting for Downey to finish that movie and to get a script from Drew. It is a high priority for the studio and all for the filmmakers involved… We want to make the right movie. We got a great response to the second movie and frankly the Moriarty character sets such a high bar that we want to make sure we’re telling the right story for the third movie."

And then he was asked about the different locations that could feature in the threequel,

"I don’t want to go into details about [characters returning], I just want to say that there will be some new locations, new settings for the third movie. Just like Sherlock for the second movie took us in a new location; the third movie will take us to a new location as well."

"Sherlock: Series 3" Not On TV Until Late 2013/Early 2014!

It's been reported and confirmed that filming for the third series of hit BBC show "Sherlock" has been moved to March next year and may not air on TV until late 2013 or early 2014 at the most.
Filming was originally confirmed to start in early January for a Summer 2013 air, but not that seems as though that ain't going to happen, which is very annoying because we may have to wait for another year/year and a half if so.

Moriarty Is Dead!!!

"Moriarty is dead" are the words said by "Sherlock" star Andrew Scott. Scott confirmed that he will not be returning as the TV villain while in an interview with The Sun newspaper. He also said,

"I don't think there could have been any better exit for a character like that"

I thought he would come back, but if not then that was definitley the way to go. Maybe Scott could crossover and make my dream come true and take on the role of the next Master, when and if he comes back ever.

Moffat Talks Female Doctor!

"Doctor Who" head writer Steven Moffat has said that "Doctor Who" will probably go on forever with the BBC because of the strong viewings and the fact that it's still a MEGA money maker for the studio. He also commented finally on the thought of a female Doctor when or after present Doctor, Matt Smith quits.

“It is a part of Time Lord lore that it can happen. Who knows, the more often it is talked about the more likely it is to happen some day.”

It was rumored for ages that "Sherlock" star Lana Pulver (above), was said to be interested in taking on the role of the very first female Doctor when or after Smith quits. She later denied all rumors saying that.
I like the thought of seeing a female Doctor someday, but I don't know if I or anyone else would actually enjoy it if it ever did really happen.

Sherlock's Role In "Trek 2" Revealed?

DON'T READ THIS POST IF YOU WANT TO FINALLY KNOW WHO BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH'S VILLAIN IN "STAR TREK 2" IS!!!!!!!
While chatting about his new film "DREDD", actor Karl Urban, who plays Bones in the reboot of "Star Trek" accidently cocked up and revealed the villain in the film. This is Benedict Cumberbatch's villain, who has not yet been identified to fans, but Urban has told us all. He is playing Captain Kirk's old friend, Gary Mitchell from the old TV series.
Obviously, Karl Urban could just be saying this to confuse fans, but if this is correct, well JJ Abrams will be giving Urban a MASSIVE spanking!!!

UPDATE: Karl Urban has been told to wear this if anyone asks him about "Trek 2" and the lead villain. We can all assume that the identity of Cumberbatch's villain must be true then!

"Sherlock" Star Should Be The Next Master!

I just watched the final episode of "Sherlock: Series 2" and I have to say what a fucking episode that was. It was such an amazing ending that let me puzzled, but I loved it. I was like, "Awww Moffat, you've done it again!!!"
Andrew Scott was outstanding in his portrayal as Sherlock's arch nemesis, Jim Moriarty. Him playing Moriarty, Benedict Cumberbatch playing Sherlock Holmes and good old Martin Freeman playing John Watson.........JUST PERFECT CASTING!!!
Anyway, back to why I'm doing this post. I thought that Scott's Moriarty was very much like John Simm's Master in "Doctor Who", funny, but quite sadistic. Obviously Moriarty is worse than The Master, but they're very much alike. So I thought that if Steven Moffat ever thought about bringing back The Master for Matt Smith's Doctor, then he should seriously consider Andrew Scott for the role. Loved John Simm, but I thing they will probably want to go younger now for Smith's Doctor, seeing as Smith is still only like below 30 years of age.

Sherlock Holmes Is "Star Trek 2" Villain!

The casting of the lead villain in the next "Star Trek" film is none other than our own TV Sherlock Holmes, Benedict Cumberbatch. This is great, but the only thing is that we don't know the identity of the villain, but again like everything else..............we'll probably find out soon enough.

The Official Plot Synopsis For "Sherlock Holmes 2"

In this months issue of Empire Magazine, it features a behind the scenes looks at this years "Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows". It will give us a detailed synopsis for the sequels plot and a look at all of the films characters.
Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room…until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large—Professor Moriarty​—and not only is he Holmes’ intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may actually give him an advantage over the renowned detective. When the Crown Prince of Austria is found dead, the evidence, as construed by Inspector Lestrade​, points to suicide. But Sherlock Holmes deduces that the prince has been the victim of murder—a murder that is only one piece of a larger and much more portentous puzzle, designed by one Professor Moriarty.
Mixing business with pleasure, Holmes tracks the clues to an underground gentlemen’s club, where he and his brother, Mycroft Holmes​ are toasting Dr. Watson​ on his last night of bachelorhood. It is there that Holmes encounters Sim, a Gypsy fortune teller, who sees more than she is telling and whose unwitting involvement in the prince’s murder makes her the killer’s next target. Holmes barely manages to save her life and, in return, she reluctantly agrees to help him. The investigation becomes ever more dangerous as it leads Holmes, Watson and Sim across the continent, from England to France to Germany and finally to Switzerland. But the cunning Moriarty is always one step ahead as he spins a web of death and destruction—all part of a greater plan that, if he succeeds, will change the course of history.

McAdams Returning For "Holmes 2"

When Noomi Rapace was announced as the lead female in "Sherlock Holmes 2", everyone thought that meant that the first films leading lady wasn't returning. We're all so wrong. Looks like Rachel McAdams may be returning after all, but only for a small part, like a cameo or something. She said this while in an interview with MTV.

2. "Hound" - "The Hound Of The Baskervilles". That's all I have to say about that one.

3. "Reichenbach" - This is the place where Sherlock and Moriarty had their final battle between each other.

Sherlock Rules Out On Playing The Doctor!

"Sherlock" star, Benedict Cumberbatch has ruled out on playing The Doctor in the future. He also announced that he was never asked about playing the role after Tennent left for the 11th Doctor, who is played by Matt Smith.
Weeks ago, the newspapers reported that Cumberbatch was meant to take the role of the 11th, but lost to Smith. He's saying that he never got the chance. He also says that he doesn't wanna play the role of The Doctor in the future. This is what he said, "I think it's a fantastic show, but the celebrity side of being the Doctor would worry me. The idea of turning up at school prizegiving days as the Doctor wouldn't appeal."
I would love to see Ben play like The 12th Doctor, because I think he is amazing in "Sherlock" and that he's a fantastic actor. But I guess he would probably act a lot like Sherlock when playing The Doctor, just the same as Sherlock is a lot like The Doctor, well seeing as both shows are written by Steven Moffat.
Rumors were spreading that Smith is said to be leaving after the revival show "Series 6", but Smith and Karen Gillan, who plays The Doctor's companion, Amy Pond on the show, announced that he has no plans for leaving and that the BBC are thrilled to have him.
