Meet the Villain of SHERLOCK Season 3

TVPhotos Sherlock by Joey Paur

The villain that Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman will be facing off against in season 3 of Sherlock has been revealed! Above you have your first look at Lars Mikkelsen as Charles Augustus Magnussen. The reveal comes from producer Sue Vertue in a tweet.

I haven't heard of Charles Augustus Magnussen before, but I think it is a different version of the Arthur Conan Doyle character Charles Augustus Milverton, also known as the “king of the blackmailers” from the story "The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton."

Sherlock returns to the US in early 2014 and should hit the UK later this year. Make sure to check out our coverage of the Comic-Con panel for Sherlock here for more information on what's in store for the fans!
