Elementary - Jonny Lee Miller defends Sherlock update

Elementary star Jonny Lee Miller says the US update of Sherlock Holmes, for which he recently filmed the pilot, has "enough differences" to Sherlock to make it worthwhile.

Asked about the similarities to the BBC show, Miller admitted "Yeah, obviously you look at it and say, “Wait a second ... " But I feel there’s enough differences there. I thought I could do something with it; otherwise, there’d be no point."

Miller and co-star Lucy Liu - who plays a female Doctor Watson to his Sherlock Holmes - have just finished shooting a pilot for Elementary.

"We’re still waiting to hear what happens with it. We’re not sure yet; we’re taking it slowly," Miller told Vulture. "But it was just a great project. And a good opportunity for me. So that’s the way you weigh those things."
