I just saw that Sherlock is indeed announced on our local HBO plus "next" section but I'm writing this here because TBH I was slightly more excited when I saw that Bryan Fogel's documentary The Dissident is also there! I really want to watch it and hopefully is a good omen about an imminent shooting of the Litvinenko series!

By the way, I watched The Dissident now (twice! I haven't watched DS2 yet! 😬) and there's anything new but it's extremely scary how Saudi Arabian government could do something like that without any real consequences. Just horrible! And again, I understand the filmmaker didn't found easy the distribution of the film.
Anyway, it will be interesting if the Litvinenko projet materializes soon. I think it's a very different role for BC. I mean he has always been interested on complex political stuff (sometime bothering some!) but the guy himself was very working class and, according to the book the series is based on, not especially smart. Those are two adjectives critics doesn't commonly use with BC's roles. Although I guess Grenville Wynne was those two thing but he was still presented as a hero. Litvinenko seemed more ambiguous character, according to the book: he is a martyr but he was also a torturer in Chechnya before being a Putin's critic. Also the Londongrad stuff made sound everything like a war between two mafias.
We have to wait and see how they adapt the source material.
