Yes, SHERLOCK fans, this news seems to be true. ‘Unofficial’ reports have come in to say that filming for the third series of the super-popular BBC programme has been postponed.
Production was supposed to start in January 2013, but unfortunately it has had to be pushed back to March. Consequently, fans of the show will have to wait a little longer to catch a glimpse of Benedict Cumberbatch, who returns as Sherlock himself. Bloggers are now estimating that instead of a planned summer 2013 release, it’ll be closer to Christmas – so this time next year!
However, fans of Cumberbatch and his sidekick Martin Freeman (who plays Dr John Watson) won’t have to wait too long to see their faces again. Benedict will appear in the upcoming STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, while Martin has taken on the rather responsible (and fan-heavy) role of Bilbo Baggins in THE HOBBIT: THE UNEXPECTED JOURNEY (and its sequels).
We’ll keep you updated if/when an official statement is released.
