Hero Fiennes Tiffin is set to star as a young Sherlock Holmes in the upcoming Prime Video series Young Sherlock.
The show, directed by Guy Ritchie, will follow Sherlock as a 19-year-old who has just begun his career as a detective.
Prime Video released the first official images from the series, showing Tiffin in period costume as he investigates crimes and works on his first major murder case.
However, the series takes place in the 1870s and moves across several international locations, giving viewers a fresh and adventurous look at the legendary detective before he became the famous scout known the world over.
The adaptation is based on Andy Lane’s Young Sherlock books and combines classic mystery elements with Guy Ritchie’s signature cinematic style.
The series also featured Joseph Fiennes, Max Irons, Colin Firth, Dónal Finn and Zine Tseng.
Guy Ritchie directed and produced alongside showrunner Matthew Parkhill, with a team of producers and Motive Pictures handling the production.
Young Sherlock marked Ritchie’s return to the Sherlock Holmes universe after his successful film Sherlock Holmes in 2009 and A game of shadows in 2011, both with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law in the lead roles.
Fans have long speculated about a third film, but this series offers the first real chance in over a decade to see Ritchie’s take on the detective.
The new images and early details have already sparked excitement, showing a young, brave and intelligent Sherlock in exciting early adventures.
The series has promised mystery, action and clever detective work, giving audiences a new reason to tune in when it premieres in 2026.
