Today, Prime Video released the tease art, teaser trailer and premiere date for Young Sherlock, starring Hero Fiennes Tiffin (After series) as Sherlock Holmes. This reimagining of the beloved detective, brought to life by visionary director and executive producer Guy Ritchie, charts the origin story of Sherlock Holmes in an irreverent, action-laden mystery that follows the iconic detective’s early adventures. All eight episodes of the thrilling series will premiere on March 4, 2026, exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
With all the wit and charm of Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes feature films, Young Sherlock follows the origin story of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s beloved detective in an explosive re-imagining of this iconic character’s early days. Sherlock Holmes is a disgraced young man – raw and unfiltered – when he finds himself wrapped up in a murder case that threatens his liberty. His first ever case unravels a globe-trotting conspiracy that changes his life forever. Unfolding in 1870s Oxford and adventuring abroad, the series will expose the early antics of the anarchic adolescent who is yet to evolve into Baker Street’s most renowned resident.
Previously announced cast members of Young Sherlock include Dónal Finn (The Wheel of Time), Zine Tseng (3 Body Problem), Joseph Fiennes (The Handmaid’s Tale), Natascha McElhone (Halo), Max Irons (Condor) and Colin Firth (The King’s Speech). Guy Ritchie directs the first two episodes and executive produces. The series is created for television and executive produced by showrunner Matthew Parkhill with executive producers Dhana Rivera Gilbert, Marc Resteghini, Simon Maxwell, Ivan Atkinson, Simon Kelton, Colin Wilson, and co-executive producers Harriet Creelman and Steve Thompson. Motive Pictures led physical production for Young Sherlock.

Christmas has long been known as the season of giving. It is a time to show love and appreciation to those who truly matter, whether it’s family who have stayed by our side, friends, or even strangers who have touched our lives, through simple acts of kindness and generosity.
But the thing is, generosity has always been part of Filipinos’ everyday lives—even without them realizing it. No matter how small or big the act may be, generosity is deeply embedded in their culture. It is in the Filipino nature to give from the heart without expecting anything in return.
One story that beautifully reflects this spirit is that of Eugene Dela Cruz, whose journey captured the hearts of many when it went viral in June 2025. At just 12 years old, he found himself homeless, holding on to every peso he earned on the streets. Through the generosity of strangers and his own determination, he eventually found hope again.
Despite his early challenges, he chose to rise through hard work. Eugene took on many jobs, from choreographing dance routines to tutoring others, which eventually helped him secure admission and a scholarship to Ateneo de Manila University. His academic journey culminated with his graduation with honors from the Bachelor of Arts in Economics (Honors Program), with a specialization in Financial Economics and a minor in Decision Science.
Though it was his perseverance that brought him success, Eugene knows he would not have made it without the people who showed him generosity in many forms. One of them is Erin, his high school friend, who offered unwavering support throughout his academic life. There’s JP, Eugene’s dance teammate, whose companionship made life bearable through its ups and downs. And then, there’s Kamille, a university admin officer, who didn’t know that her simple “kamusta” became a lifeline of warmth and encouragement for Eugene.
Those who lifted Eugene along his journey remind us that generosity often comes in humble, heartfelt ways. Inspired by stories like his, Cadbury this Christmas gives back to everyday givers who brighten lives through quiet acts of kindness. In its latest campaign, the brand shares a film highlighting Eugene’s story and the people who left a lasting mark on his path, from life as a street dweller to graduating as a college scholar. It shows that generosity isn’t measured by grandeur, but by small gestures that create meaningful impact.
“This Christmas, I’m thankful for generous people. I encounter generosity in different places. In school, at work, and in groups I join,” Eugene says. “Generosity is the force that keeps us going. Talking to people around you or even just lending an ear, that’s a big help because you don’t know what they are going through. Simple things like saying, ‘You can do it!’ It goes a long way.”
With Cadbury Dairy Milk’s new, richer, and more chocolatey taste, it makes the perfect treat to give and share this Christmas time. The iconic chocolate bar also comes in a limited-edition Christmas sleeve, allowing everyone to pen their heartfelt message for “every generous one in their life.”
“This campaign is our way of celebrating the spirit of generosity in all its forms,” said Assistant Brand Manager of Cadbury, Allana Paz. “Generosity does not have to be in grand gestures; it is also the small, everyday acts that deserve to be thanked for. Eugene’s journey is a beautiful reflection of how simple acts of kindness can change lives, and that’s exactly what Cadbury stands for. We hope to inspire everyone to pass on that sweetness, one thoughtful gesture at a time.”
As Filipinos, we’re big on Christmas, especially the joy of giving fits. With the holidays fast approaching, many are already searching for presents that strike the balance between practical and personal. A good pair of shoes often hits that sweet spot: useful for work, effortless for weekends, perfect for active living, and easy to dress up for holiday gatherings.

It’s about helping shoppers give with meaning and choose something they’ll truly be happy to share.”
