SHERLOCK
the screenplay

Reviews

The Black List:
Takes the Sherlock Holmes character and - in a bold move - turns him into a she. As an idea that feels topical while also adding a new sense of intrigue to the oversaturated works involving Holmes, this script’s concept is the shining light of the story and allows for the successful interplay between a Holmesian procedural and a more contemporary exploration of gender, abuse, and equality. 


Coverage, Ink:
Much like other filmed versions of Sherlock, we get the same wit and humor that works really well; especially when alluding to differences in the sexes. …Sherlock being a female and having to hide it due to the times adds a unique spin…
