‘Sherlock Holmes 3’ story hint

With Jude Law reprising his role as Dr. Watson in the ‘Sherlock Holmes’ movie franchise, what’s the third film in the series going to be about?

“We hope to propel the story forward,” Law teases.

“As always, the essence of the story is their codependency. We’re going to examine - since it’s been several years since we’ve seen them - we’re going to play up the fact that they haven’t seen each other for a long time either.”

So it sounds like Holmes and Watson will have taken a break from one another during a bunch of intervening years, then reunite for some new adventure.
