There have been so many questions for the upcoming "Sherlock" season 4 and co-creator Steven Moffat finally answered a few details including the major theme for the Benedict Cumberbatch-led series, as well as release date and other cast news.
While there seems to be little information out there about BBC's "Sherlock" season 4, Steven Moffat revealed a few good details about the upcoming fourth installment to the series that stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. In an interview with EW, Moffat revealed that some details may have overlooked by the very eager fans.
"There are answers coming to questions which nobody has asked. There's one thing that no one has really brought up," Moffat shared. "It's not that we're being clever. We never know. Sometimes people go mad for one thing we think is quite trivial and completely ignore something we think is standing right in front of you."
Moffat revealed what's new for the coming "Sherlock" season 4 and said that while the previous seasons were all too serious, the upcoming storyline between Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman's characters will be a little more loose, more fun.
"The missing element in a lot of Sherlock Holmes adaptations is allowing it to be funny," Moffat explained. "There's a lot of humor in Sherlock Holmes, and it's ignored in a lot of adaptations."
Steven Moffat further summed up the theme come "Sherlock" season 4 release date. He said, "[Season 4] is going to be... I suppose you'd say... consequences. It's consequences. Chickens come to roost. It's dark in some ways-obviously it's great fun and a Sherlock Holmes romp and all that-but there's a sense of... things... coming back to bite you. It's not a safe, sensible way to live. It's hilarious and exhilarating some days, but some days it's going to be bloody frightening."
"Sherlock" season 4 release date is set for 2016.
