‘It Has A Bit More Potency’: How Henry Lloyd-Hughes Transformed Into A Drug-Addled Sherlock Holmes
The actor famous from The Inbetweeners and Killing Eve tells HuffPost UK how he became an unrecognisable Sherlock for new Netflix series The Irregulars.
“I do think that taking apart that machismo or the bravado of the perfect crime fighter feels more relevant to the times we’re living in,” Henry Lloyd-Hughes tells HuffPost UK.
The actor plays an unrecognisable Sherlock Holmes in new Netflix series The Irregulars. He is weakened and on drugs, and going through something of a reckoning.
