Sherlock Season 5 will release soon. The Final Problem had been solved by Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and we want to see more action from baker street boys. So now, there are plenty of talks that indicate that the great detective may come back to life. In the last installment, there was an episode named The Final Problem, but was it really the last of the series?

So far, there have been several conflicting reports as to whether or not Sherlock is over for good. There have been speculations that the great detective could perhaps resurrect one more time as he did in the past. Here, we are with the complete report, from expected release date to cast to everything, that we have gathered from several sources.

Will Sherlock Season 5 Happen?

In mid-2016, the series co-writer Steven Moffat said that ‘Sherlock is not going to disappear entirely.” He also said that they are overwhelmed with the kind of response they are receiving for the ‘Sherlock’ and hope to continue it as long as they can. For fans who were asking regarding the future of Sherlock, Moffat (in January 2017) said that the chapter one has ended.

“Dr. Watson is now Doyle’s brave widower and Sherlock Holmes has become the wise and humane version of the main run of the stories (we’ve focused, so far, on the cold Holmes of the early days.)”

The Chapter Two of the Sherlock tv series will still include consciously fighting against myths and wrong-doers with our two favorite stars – Watson and Holmes. Maddox said that he is sort of hoping to come back.

He also stated that after the last series, he had been busy with Doctor Who and Mark, also, has been doing other stuff. So, they had sat together properly for planning on what to do next big thing in the Sherlock season 5.

By June 2017, Moffat was still assuming that Sherlock would return sometime in the future and they would be back together.

Meanwhile, Benedict Cumberbatch has also expressed his willingness to play Sherlock in old age, if possible. But, Moffat seems busy to continue as of now. He said that it won’t be happening again with the same regularity that as it had been.

Mark Gattis said- “Sherlock without Cumberbatch (or Martin Freeman) is NOT an option: “We couldn’t do it without him, of course not, We couldn’t recast Sherlock”

Sherlock Season 5 Release Date: When Will It Premiere?

As fans know that the schedule of Sherlock always has been irregular. There was a gap of 18-months between the first two series, then it was about 2 years between second and third seasons, then a one-off special came after two years, and finally, a 12-month break for one more series of 3 films.

So, the next big question is that how long will it take for the Sherlock season 5? When we asked Andrew Scott about One show in June 2017, he replied:

“I don’t think there’s another series of Sherlock coming soon. We’re not doing it for another couple of years. Everybody got quite busy, you know? [And] you want to keep it fresh.”

Gatiss said that the wait will be more than two years. So, the fans will need to wait 2 years, at the least.

Sherlock Season 5 Cast & Characters

The ratings for season 4 has been extremely good, so asking for the next installment is obvious. The makers said that they will have to see first if three films are available, and then it comes to Benedict and Martin if they have the time, schedule, and inclination.

As of August 2017, Benedict is busy with a multi-movie deal with Marvel and he is also an Oscar nominee, so he is not short of other offers as well. Martin Freeman is also with his Captain America: Civil War’s character Everett k Ross. He is going to appear in Black Panther slated for 2018 release.

Gattis said that honestly, he honestly doesn’t know when will be the Sherlock season 5 releasing. It’s because it will be very difficult to align the diaries of Cumberbatch and Freeman and Moffat and his.

For now, they have left it to the Fawlty Towers principle of, ‘Let’s just leave it.’

Gettis told one reporter that it will be the end of his toughest year as he did three Sherlocks and 14 Doctor Whos.

Freeman has also got several films offers. He made it big with his role of Captain America: Civil War character Everett K Ross. He again appeared in Black Panther (2018). Also, he has attached to a second TV series – StartUp which airs on streaming service Crackle.

Sherlock Season 5 Episodes: Stories to Come

But still, Moffat and Gattis have a lot in mind when it comes to Sherlock which pair is holding to get done in future.

“Mark’s always wanted to do ‘The Red-Headed League[and] there’s ‘The Engineer’s Thumb’, which is a slightly mad story that doesn’t have a proper ending,” Moffat said.

“There’s an element of ‘The Greek Interpreter’ that I think is really exciting, which hasn’t been done because in our version of events Irene Adler is still out there. There’s always that.”

Conan Doyle’s four full-length Holmes novel has been cannibalized – A Study in Scarlet’ as ‘A Study in Pink’, ‘The Sign of the Four’ as ‘The Sign of Three’, ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’ as ‘The Hounds of Baskerville’ and ‘The Valley of Fear’ as ‘The Blind Banker’.

Sherlock Season 6 and Future?

The series has already been running for over 90 minutes, as of now. So, there is more to it in the future for sure. With 90-minute episodes, we won’t be surprised if the series takes a huge leap to spin-off into a bonafide motion picture.

Whenever, wherever, and whatever happens in Sherlock’s future, but one thing is clear that Moffat and Gattis aren’t going to hand over it to a new creative team. They said that their version is only theirs. People may come up with their own ideas.
