Guy Ritchie’s Take on Sherlock Holmes’ Origins
Young Sherlock charts the origin story of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s legendary detective with a tone that mirrors Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes films.
The series is described as irreverent and action-heavy, focusing on a raw, unfiltered Sherlock before he becomes the famed Baker Street sleuth.
Set primarily in 1870s Oxford, the story follows a disgraced young Holmes who becomes entangled in a murder case that threatens his freedom.
What begins as his first investigation spirals into a globe-trotting conspiracy that reshapes his life and sets him on the path toward becoming one of fiction’s most famous detectives.

Alongside Hero Fiennes Tiffin, the previously announced cast includes: Dónal Finn, Zine Tseng, Joseph Fiennes, Natascha McElhone, Max Irons, and Colin Firth.
