\n\tA synopsis reads: \u201cJames Moriarty is a Professor of Criminal Psychology at Durham University but leads a secret double life as the mastermind behind every crime of sophistication in the North of England.\u00a0 When a rival criminal begins an assault on his underground empire, Moriarty will have only one choice: to join the police as a consultant, using the law as a weapon to dismantle his foe while keeping his\u00a0true identity\u00a0hidden from the police.\u201d He gets paired with Detective Imogen Burrows, \u201ca stoic Yorkshire detective\u201d to form \u201ca fearsome team, but Moriarty will soon realize that the real threat isn\u2019t the rival criminal faction he\u2019s dismantling, but Imogen\u2019s increasingly perceptive suspicions.\u201d

Said Archery founder Thykier:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cWe are thrilled to be working with Fremantle to bring to life the original and character-driven spin-off from the Sherlock Holmes universe that Chris Cornwell has created.\u00a0Moriarty<\/em>\u00a0will show audiences what it takes to be a criminal genius, combining genre thrills with a playful, dark, and thrilling dive into the psychology of villainy.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0
Rebecca Dundon, senior vp, scripted\u00a0content\u00a0at Fremantle, highlighted: \u201cWe instantly saw huge\u00a0potential for a commercial, returning franchise that brings to life one of the more allusive characters in the Sherlock world: Moriarty. It\u2019s exciting to collaborate with Kris and the team at Archery to bring a premium, propulsive, contemporary drama to screen that will not only be clever and hooky,\u00a0but also give us a fresh spin on the procedural crime format with an unconventionally brilliant protagonist at the heart who will constantly surprise and frustrate viewers in a highly entertaining manner!\u201d\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
