In the show, Chestnut takes the lead as Dr. John Watson, who puts down his detective hat to become the head of a medical clinic dedicated to caring for people with rare disorders.
Even though he’s moved on from this old life, Watson learns that this past isn’t done with him, as he bumps heads with Moriarity, providing a new entry into the Sherlock Holmes/Watson lore.
Also joining Chestnut on the show will be Eve Harlow, Peter Mark Kendall, Ritchie Coster, Inga Schlingmann, and Rochelle Aytes.
Watson continues Chestnut’s run on television. He has also starred in other recent series, Reasonable Doubt, The Resident, and Diarra From Detroit.
