Brad Pitt Might Face Off With RDJ in Sherlock Holmes Sequel
Warner Brothers is already developing a sequel to the not-yet-released Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, and early gossip suggests that Brad Pitt has been in talks to join the cast as Moriarity, Holmes's rival.
Please let this be true! Not only would adding Pitt to the Downey-Law lineup help keep the Holmes franchise afloat, but Downey and Pitt in the same film is pretty much my dream — both guys have that wise-cracking persona, good looks, and it would be so much fun to see them spar.
Jude Celebrates Peace and Possible Sherlock Holmes Sequel
Jude Law took time out from Hamlet to attend Ben & Jerry's 10th Anniversary Celebration Of Peace Day in New York City yesterday. The event gave Jude another opportunity to hang out with his pal Jonny Lee Miller, who is also performing on stage in the city. Jude is the Ambassador of Peace One Day, and he joined founder Jeremy Gilley at the celebration, having also supported him at last year's Cannes Film Festival.
Robert's Sherlock Won't Be Battling Brad
Robert Downey Jr left Claridge's Hotel in London with his suitcase last night, having been staying in the city this week reshooting key scenes for Guy Ritchie's new Sherlock Holmes movie alongside Rachel McAdams and Jude Law. Despite rumours that Brad Pitt was joining the movie as Sherlock's nemesis Moriarty, a studio spokesman denied it, saying:
“Brad Pitt is not joining the cast of Sherlock Holmes and we’re extremely pleased with the production of the film. In order to complete the movie, we’ve scheduled a few days on set to shoot a couple of additional scenes, obtain pick-up shots, and perfect some of the visual effects elements, all of which is standard film-making practice.”
Thanks to the cast and the trailer, I'm really looking forward to seeing Robert as Sherlock — are you?
Rachel, Jude and Robert Return For Sherlock Reshoots
Robert Downey Jr, Rachel McAdams and Jude Law are in London at the moment reshooting and filming some additional scenes for Guy Ritchie's upcoming Sherlock Holmes movie. While Rachel's moved on to promoting The Time Traveler's Wife, which had its New York premiere at the end of last week, Jude Law has been working on Hamlet in the West End. After it finishes its run in the UK, the play is headed to New York city where Jude will be treading the boards on an opening night that happens to be the same night that his fourth child is due to be born.
The Sherlock Holmes Cast Investigates More Without Brad Pitt
Robert Downey Jr. and Rachel McAdams were both in suspenders earlier today as they reported back to the London set of Sherlock Holmes. Jude Law was also on hand to continue work on the film, after studio bosses requested that additional scenes be added. These late changes will not, however, affect the release date of the film which is still slated to come out at the end of this year.

Sherlock Holmes — See It or Skip It?
We've seen the photos, but finally we get our first proper look at Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes in this trailer, and it looks like a lot of fun! Robert Downey Jr stars as the British detective, with Jude Law as his right hand man Watson, plus Rachel McAdams as the sassy Irene Adler. From the trailer, Guy's movie seems to promise plenty of action, a lot of laughs, and Robert Downey Jr handcuffed naked to a bed, so I've added it to my must-see list when it comes out on December 26!
Movie Preview: Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes
It would be an understatement indeed to say that we haven't seen Sherlock Holmes quite like this before. As this new trailer shows, Guy Ritchie's big screen Holmes story is full of action, violence, and good-looking people. There are quippy lines a-plenty (it is Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role and Guy Ritchie in the director's chair, after all) and elements of silliness — all of which rounds out to be quite a funny and heart-poundingly tense mystery.
Jude Law and Guy Ritchie Get Giddy in the Punch Bowl
Sherlock Holmes buddies Jude Law and Guy Ritchie enjoyed a night out at Guy's pub, the Punch Bowl, in London last night. A smiling Guy played the genial landlord with aplomb, while a wide-eyed Jude was convincing as the inebriated customer. With such intensity on his face, perhaps Jude is already getting into character for his upcoming stage role as Hamlet in London this summer.
