Sherlock Homes Enlists a Team of Magical Teenagers for Help in Teaser for Netflix's THE IRREGULARS
Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for a new supernatural series titled The Irregulars. The series tells the story of a group of magical yet troubled teenagers who are manipulated into helping Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson solve some of their more fantastical cases.
This eight-part drama is set in Victorian London, and the story follows “a gang of troubled street teens who are manipulated into solving crimes for the sinister Doctor Watson and his mysterious business partner, the elusive Sherlock Holmes. As the crimes take on a horrifying supernatural edge and a dark power emerges, the Irregulars must come together to defeat larger than life forces.”
I love that Dr. Watson is described as being sinister. The Irregulars is based on the Baker Street Irregulars gang from the original books that were written by Sir Arther Conan Doyle. This looks like it’ll make for a fun series! This concept of the Baker Street Irregulars is a cool one that has never really been explored before.
The series stars Thaddea Graham (Letter For The King, Us) as Bea; Darci Shaw (Judy) as Jessie; Jojo Macari (Sex Education) as Billy; Mckell David (Snatch) as Spike; Harrison Osterfield (Catch 22) as Leopold; Henry Lloyd-Hughes (Killing Eve) as Sherlock Holmes; Royce Pierreson (The Witcher) as John Watson’ and Clarke Peters (His Dark Materials) as The Linen Man.
The project is written and executive produced by Tom Bidwell (My Mad Fat Diary), and it’s also executive produced by Jude Liknaitzky (My Mad Fat Diary) and Greg Brenman (Peaky Blinders). The series is produced by Rebecca Hodgson (Good Cop, Deep Water) and lead director is Johnny Allan (Endeavour) with Joss Agnew (Poldark) and Weronika Tofilska (Last Train) also directing.
The series will be released on Netflix on March 26th, 2021.
