'Sherlock' Season 4 Spoilers: Toby Jones, Martin Freeman, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Mark Gatiss Hits the Screen With a Bang

The torture that the creator of Sherlock has put the fandom through should get rewarded, and so they did. With the trailer for the return of the series season 4 of Sherlock being published, all that can be said is that this time it is "not a game anymore". Toby Jones, Martin Freeman, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Mark Gatiss come back to the screen, with a storm!

As reported by IndieWire,The "highly functioning sociopath" will have to face his inner demons as per the trailer. Sherlock Holmes, played by Benedict Cumberbatch is probably going to be vulnerable while dealing with himself and his sins, for the trailer promises a Sherlock series full of plot twists and turns. The grim of the previous episodes, through the way the lights are being cast on the frames, have been kept intact. Last season it was quite a ride, for Sherlock had to be put away but the return of Moriarty, or should it be said that the dubious return of Moriarty made him take a different course in life than what was chosen by Sherlock's brother, Mycroft.

The crime drama consists of 90 minutes episodes on the existing tales of Sherlock Holmes, the private detective, written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This season, Sherlock will probably be based, quite loosely, on the plot line of Conan Doyle's "The Adventure of the Six Napoleons." To add to that, the snippet, 40 seconds long, also introduces the new villain Culverton Smith, portrayed by Toby Jones, who plays with our beloved detective's mind, Tv Line reported.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's ideas of Sherlock Holmes have been given a slight twist and that makes it relatable for the fandom of the series. That being said, the much-anticipated return of the series can be witnessed on New Year's Day that is 01.01.2017. It debuts on PBS in the United States and on BBC in the United Kingdom.
