ELEMENTARY Casts Natalie Dormer as Irene Adler

ELEMENTARY has found its Irene Adler: CBS has announced in a press release that GAME OF THRONES actress Natalie Dormer will join the series for a three-episode arc starting May 9th.

“We’re moving to the next chapter in our show – and in some ways, to a previous chapter in Holmes’ story,” said creator Rob Doherty in a statement. “Irene Adler is perhaps the most pivotal relationship in Sherlock’s life, and I can’t think of an actress better suited to the challenge than Natalie.”

As you’ll recall, it was Irene’s death (at the hands of the as-yet-unseen Moriarty) that sent Sherlock spiraling into a drug addition.

Are you excited to see what Irene’s in-the-flesh arrival will mean for the series?
