We don’t have a release date for the film yet, other than the vague assurance that it’s “coming soon to Netflix”. There’s been a lot of delays for Netflix shows this year, however, with the Covid-19 pandemic causing production to shut down for numerous shows – Stranger Things season 4 included – and not much clarity over when they might resume.
We’ve been told that Netflix’s slate of releases will continue unaffected for the next few months, though, with the fallout from halted in-production shows only becoming more apparent on the service later in the year.
That leads us to assume we’ll be seeing this film in the coming weeks, rather than in 2021 – why announce it as coming soon if it was one of the titles delayed, after all? At the very least, we hope it hasn’t been haphazardly self-filmed in the actors’ homes, TikTok-style. (You viewers deserve better.)
For now, you can enjoy (or, at least watch) Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows on Netflix – the sequel to the 2009 Sherlock Holmes film featuring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law.
