Joseph Fiennes (Shakespeare in love, The Handmaid’s Tale) AND Natascha McElhone (The Truman Show, Californication) have joined the cast of Amazon Prime Video Young Sherlock as series regulars.
Fiennes — the uncle of Hero Fiennes Tiffin, who plays Sherlock Holmes, was cast as Silas Holmes, Sherlock’s father, described as a “self-made scientist, explorer and businessman.” McElhone will play Cordelia Holmes, described as Sherlock’s “devoted mother, artist and matriarch of the Holmes clan.”
Young Sherlock is inspired by the books “The Young Sherlock Holmes” by Andy Lane. According to the series’ official logline, “At age 19, Sherlock Holmes has fallen from grace, raw, unfiltered and shapeless, when he finds himself embroiled in a murder mystery at Oxford University that threatens his freedom. .
“Plunging into his first case ever with a complete lack of discipline, Sherlock manages to unravel a worldwide conspiracy that will change his life forever.”
Guy Ritchie directs the series while Matthew Parkhill hosts the show. Executive producers include Ritchie, Parkhill, Simon Kelton, Ivan Atkinson, Simon Maxwell, Dhana Gilbert, Colin Wilson and Marc Resteghini, with co-executive producer Harriet Creelman. Produced by Motive Pictures.
