We have also seen the commission of a new series, The Death of Sherlock Holmes, which will air on Sky and star Rafe Spall in the title role.
Moriarty [working title], comes from producers Fremantle and Archery Pictures, and will be written by Chris Cornwell (A Discovery of Witches, Doctor Who: Redacted) and Oliver Lansley (Flack, Where’s Wanda?).
As has been reported by Deadline, the team behind the new series has said it will be a "modern reinvention of the crime procedural, based on the most famous villain in all of detective fiction".
"When a rival criminal begins an assault on his underground empire, Moriarty will have only one choice: to join the police as a consultant, using the law as a weapon to dismantle his foe while keeping his true identity hidden from the police.
No casting has yet been announced for the series, but whoever does play Moriarty will follow in the footsteps of actors including Jared Harris (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows), Andrew Scott (Sherlock) and Dónal Finn (Young Sherlock).
Meanwhile, Rebecca Dundon, SVP Scripted Content at Fremantle, added: "We’ve been looking for a project to work with Archery on for a while and when Kris brought this to us, we instantly saw huge potential for a commercial, returning franchise that brings to life one of the more allusive characters in the Sherlock world."
