While promoting his new Netflix series “Eric,” Benedict Cumberbatch addressed the burning question on every Sherlock fan’s mind: will the detective return to our screens?
It’s been seven years since season four’s cliffhanger ending left fans desperately hoping for a continuation. Whether a fifth season or a movie adaptation, the desire for more Sherlock Holmes remains strong.
When asked about a potential return, Cumberbatch offered a playful answer: “You won’t hear it here first if there is,” he said with a wry smile, cleverly keeping the details under wraps.
But then came the glimmer of hope that fans have been waiting for: “But we never say never.” These three simple words are enough to ignite excitement among Sherlock enthusiasts worldwide.

With Cumberbatch’s latest comments, the possibility of a Sherlock return feels more tangible than ever. Whether it materializes as a full-fledged season or a special project, fans can hold onto the hope that their favorite detective might just make another brilliant deduction.
