Robert Downey Jr. the busy man may become the reason of stalling production of "Sherlock Holmes 3."

Returning from "Captain America: Civil War," Downey Jr. already has a tight schedule according to Christian Today, if he misses the target for filming "Sherlock Holmes 3" this year, the film's release may be delayed.

According to Parent Herald, Downey Jr. has discussed regarding the possibilities of the next "Sherlock Holmes" release to Guy Ritchie. However, there is no news from the franchise yet.

In an interview with ShortList in April, the actor stated that he is looking to hopefully start production this year. "When we're making those Sherlock movies it is off the hook. [So] we'll attempt to make one this year," he said.

According to the actor though he is "tired all the time," he is still "so excited" about filming. For Downey Jr., things could have been easier for him and the development team if only they could do the shots through Skype.

Though hopes for the third instalment have somehow decreased down despite Downey Jr.'s teasing statements, fans rallied once more in support of the film after producer Joel Silver dished on the tentative production start date last month.

Speaking to Collider, Silver said, "It looks like it could happen this fall. Downey said he wants to do it...we have a script that we like. Jude [Law] is available and Downey is available, and we're hoping we can get it done."

Silver added that they are pushing for the fall production to happen since Downey Jr. will be working on another "Avengers" movie after New Year, which isn't surprising for the Marvel favorite.
