Since the start of Sherlock Season 3, rumors have been circulating about the plot of the show's fourth season. Steven Moffat, the show's executive producer, told The Guardian that the idea for the next season just popped into his head while they were sitting on top of the show's production bus. He unfortunately added that there are no plans of making a Sherlock movie.

Actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman have expressed their interest in continuing to do the series as well. The plot for Seasons 4 and 5 has already been laid out according to Moffat and they have no intention of casting famous personalities but rather to put in more thrilling scenes and angles.

Moffat declared that he does not know when Season 4 will be released. He said that Sue is working on the schedules while Capaldi has just started "Doctor Who." Sherlock fans may have to wait two years for Season 4 but Moffat assured them that quality will not be sacrificed.


If we will look at the current schedule of Freeman and Cumberbatch, it indeed looks like we will have to wait for 2016 for Sherlock Season 4. The last episode indicating that Moriarty was still alive made fans to want more of Sherlock. Moriarty was seen on the screen asking "Did you miss me?" in the last minutes of the final episode.

HE’S Sydney’s latest adopted son and Scottish movie hunk Gerard Butler is not wasting time making friends with the harbour city’s female population.

Taking advantage of his time in Australia as he ­prepares to shoot the $150 million epic Gods of Egypt, Butler has thrown himself into the city’s ­social scene, getting familiar with several women on various occasions — even leaving a party in Bondi last week with two girls in tow.

Kicking on from the Kym Ellery show at fashion week on Monday night, Butler and a small entourage made their way to a party at Da Orazio Pizza and Porchetta for sock label Scarce.

With models including Bambi Northwood-Blyth and Cheyenne Tozzi looking on, Butler hit the dancefloor and it was then that a handful of women caught his eye.

Benedict Cumberbatch has put an end to rumours that he has a part in Star Wars Episode 7.

The actor has said that an appearance from him in JJ Abrams’ blockbuster ‘won’t happen’ despite wanting a part in it.

Australian entertainment site The Iris, who was live tweeting Benedict’s Q&A at OzComicCon, reports him as saying: ‘I would’ve liked a part in JJ’s new Star Wars but it won’t happen sadly.’



He also dismissed the chance of being involved with another hugely popular sci-fi series, Doctor Who.

‘I’m never gonna play The Doctor and nothing to do with the Whoniverse’ he revealed.

You can almost hear the dreams of thousands of Whovians shattering into tiny pieces.

New role: Richard Armitage is to star in a new production of The Crucible

Newcomer Samantha Colley has been picked to appear with Hobbit heartthrob Richard Armitage in one of the year’s most important theatrical productions.

The 23-year-old from the West Country will form a lustful - but highly dangerous - liaison with Armitage in a new production of Arthur Miller’s classic The Crucible, which begins performances at the Old Vic Theatre on June 24.



She will play Abigail Williams, a love-struck girl who persuades god-fearing (and married)  John Proctor to ‘lapse’, and then, when he doesn’t want to ‘lapse’ any more, charts a spiteful course for revenge in 17th-century Salem, Massachusetts.

WHAT'S ON STAGE?
By Ben Hewis • 11 Apr 2014 • London



Hobbit star Richard Armitage is being lined up to play John Proctor in The Crucible, which opens at the Old Vic Theatre on June 24.



The Crucible is set in the town of Salem, Massachusetts, where in 1692, 19 adults and two dogs were hanged for witchcraft, and one man was pressed to death for refusing to plead. Inspired by the events of the McCarthy era, by the actions of the witch-hunting House Un-American Activities Committee of the 1950s, in front of which playwright Arthur Miller was invited to give evidence, in effect to betray his friends.
