At this point it’s hard to find someone that isn’t familiar with the work of Benedict Cumberbatch (“Star Trek Into Darkness”), or Martin Freeman (“The Hobbit”). That being said, most fans of those two great actors have been anxiously waiting for more of their work together on the hit BBC show “Sherlock”. Despite loving their work apart, there’s nothing quite like seeing them pair up as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson. The updated version of Sherlock Holmes fans fell in love with, created by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, will take a back seat for a more traditional version this holiday.
Take a look at the trailer below and judge for yourself if Cumberbatch and Freeman’s modernized version of the characters translates into the traditional. The entertainment in this upcoming holiday season is full of excellent choices and “Sherlock” is definitely counted among them. Although the trailer says coming soon, previous reports have said the holiday special will air on Christmas but it’s certain to premiere before the end of this year.
