Lara Pulver Gives Sherlock S3 Update
Lara Pulver, who made waves playing Irene Adler back in Season 2 of the BBC’s Sherlock, opposite Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, spoke about the highly-anticipated, but delayed, Season 3 this morning at the TCA Press Tour.
While promoting her new David S. Goyer/Starz series Da Vinci’s Demons, Pulver was asked about returning to Sherlock as Irene Adler.
“As for future appearances of Irene Adler, she’s not dead,” Pulver smiled. “[Sherlock] did save her at the end of the episode, however I have no idea, as yet, if she’ll appear in Season 3. I believe we’re due to start shooting Season 3 any day now, but both of the boys are big movies stars with stuff to promote, so getting everyone in one room and on schedule, I think, is a little tricky right now.”
“However, it’s a show that we’re all extremely passionate about,” Pulver continued. “It’s a gift of a role. And it’s funny, because you can do 10 episodes of a big BBC or HBO show and you never know what’s going to pop. And for me, [it was] that 90-minute episode of Sherlock. I think it was a culmination of it being extremely well written, beautifully shot by Paul McGuigan and it already had the momentum of the first season. And it was just a gift of a role that I thoroughly enjoyed and had a lot of fun playing. Therefore, would I go back? In a heartbeat. For sure.”
Sherlock Season/Series 3 will likely premiere in late 2013 for the U.K and in 2014 for the U.S.

As to Sherlock and The Super Long Hiatus--I don't really even care anymore. Especially since between S2 ended I've read more crit and meta about the show and Elementary came along (and slayed and is amazing) and I've gotten over a lot of my unabashed squee.
I've been a lifelong stan of anything Holmes, so in the meantime I've got Elementary and Granada Holmes to keep me company on Netflix. Plus I have yet to tire of watching the 6 episodes of BBClock that have been made (and the unaired pilot), I've seen each of them about 15 times apiece at this point and they are still just as good at the first time I watched them.

In that "why do new Sherlock adaptations fuck up Irene?" article io9 published the other day, some of the commenters posted that the movie Zero Effect (w/ Bill Pullman & Kim Dickens) was the best modern day Irene Adler adaption (albeit loosely based on the original characters & story). Have you seen it?
arg... 2014! awwwww i legit thought the show comes out this year
