While talking to Screen Rant, Susan Downey revealed in an interview that the idea behind ‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ is still very much alive. “I mean, look, no, there’s no update, other than it’s still very much alive in our hearts,” Susan said.
“Every day we talk about, “What is the best next version of that?” Because anytime I see Robert and Jude [Law] together, which fortunately, I do get to see a few times a year, we hang out, and I’m just like, ‘Can I get these guys back on screen together?’, it’s magic,” Downey continued to say. “There needs to be a really strong reason, it needs to be a great story, and we do have some things in the works,” she added. So what seems to be the problem is planning a good storyline.
