Elementary...and a possibility of a spin-off called League of Extraordinary Gentlemen!
I have just seen the third series of Elementary, and so far it is quite good. But I now wonder if a spin-off would be good.
There are talks of a remake to League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, maybe modernised as a tv version. Reason for this revelation was because after watching the end of season 2, when Mycroft faked his death, I assume he would tak the alias of "M", and lead a small taskforce to work on case and fix problems no one can do. Maybe introduce those characters in a possible fourth series of Elementary?
That cast choice and characters are:
Idris Elba as Alan Quartermaine - Quartermaine is an ex-Royal Marine, who's lost his faith in patrionism. But now has regained his fighting spirit when being recruited by Mycroft. Elba is done playing Luthor from the BBC show of the same name, and I think he is best suited for this role.
Michelle Ryan as Mina Harker - A woman with a mysterious past with surpising skills in combat and deduction that rivals that of Joan Watson. Mina Joined the league in the hopes of finding her husband, who disapeared and was connected to a shady organisation. I think former Eastenders star Michelle Ryan would be good in the role, and hasn't been in an action show since her role in the remake Bionic Woman.
Alexander Siddig as Captain Nemo - An explorer and environmentalist who owns his own submarine, he turned to a life of terrorism against those who threaten marine life. Nemo was then offered to join the League by Mycroft in the hopes to do good in a less violent way. It would be good to have Siddig back in the US screen since Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
David Anders as Dr. Jack Griffin(the Invisible Man) - A scientist who found out his company were going to sell his formula to terrorists and so destroyed every data and used the last formula on himself, where he exacted revenge on his company. The Invisible Man was then offered to join the League in return they would make him visible again.
Lyndsy Fonseca & Ellen Hollman as Dr. Henriett Jekyll & Mrs. Edna Hyde - Two sides of the same coin, literally. Henriett Jekyll was a shy genetic scientist that worked on a formula which would make the human appearance perfect and cure mental illness. She was diognosed woth duel-personality disorder in her childhood which started to re-emerge itself. She used the formula on herself, but it backfired; not only giving her second ego a conscious but genetically alters her appearances whenever ego emerges. This created Edna Hyde, Jekyll's other half who is beautiful but deadly, a psychotic superhuman. Jekyll & Hyde were recuited by Mycroft; Jekyll for her knoweldge in genetics for any cases that involves DNA, and Hyde mostly as the powerhouse(albeit unpredictable). Lyndsy Fonseca is very pretty, and she would be great in a main role since Nikita. And I liked Ellen Hollman in her role in Spartacus: Vengeance and Spartacus: War of the Damned.
NOTE: I hope these characters would appear in a future episode of Elementary, which would be really cool.
Rhys Ifans as Mycroft Holmes - Brother of Sherlock Holmes, and former MI6 agent. Mycroft faked his death, but could not resist the adventure. So he made a deal with the NSA where he would go on an alias and form his own task force; League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. It would be nice to see Rhys Ifans back.
Natalie Dormer as Jamie Moriarty - The main antagonist for the supposed spin-off, and Sherlock's former lover-turned-nemesis.
Richard Armitage as Johnathen Harker - Mina's wife who disapeared, but turns out he secretly works for Moriarty.
That's my idea for a tv show of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Tell me what you think.
