islamabad - Netflix have released a teaser for the new supernatural Sherlock Holmes series which is scheduled for release next month. The Irregulars will see a group of misfits working to solve supernatural crimes in 19th-Century London.
The trailer shows a series of ‘demonic’ murders occurring in the city, with the fate of London resting on the shoulders of five youngsters. The group are based on the Baker Street Irregulars, a street gang who the detective employs and who feature in a number of books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of legendary sleuth Holmes. They will be the focus of the series and have been brought to life by creator Tom Bidwell to save the city. The group is made up of leader Bea (Thaddea Graham), her younger sister Jessie (Darci Shaw) and their friends Billy (Jojo Macari), Spike (McKell David), and Leopold (Harrison Osterfield). The plot will follow a strong female lead, as Bea fights to save her sibling, a choice made by the creator, according to the report.
Tom said: ‘We set out with that intention, why can’t they go into what is predominantly a man’s world and kick a bit of a**? I wanted to make it feel exciting and scary and very, very fresh so these characters are very accessible to a modern audience.’ The series will feature a ‘supernatural element’ which the team have got to battle to save London.
