Hero Complex has released a new photo from the highly-anticipated Sherlock Holmes 2. The movie stars Robert Downey Jr. (Sherlock Holmes), Jude Law (Dr. John Watson), Noomi Rapace, Stephen Fry, Jared Harris, Gilles Lellouche.
The following gives a better description on what the sequel is about and what is new with Holmes and Watson…
Set in 1891 — a year after the last film's events — the sequel shows Holmes continuing his pursuit of Professor Moriarty (played by Jared Harris), who, if the investigator's instincts are correct, might be the world's first supervillain. Watson, meanwhile, is still trying to be a good partner to his love, Mary Morstan (Kelly Reilly), while keeping Sherlock alive.
From the looks of things, that latter task won't be particularly easy, given that Ritchie appears to be continuing with the gritty, stylized approach he adopted for the first movie. “I think one of the most exciting things in this one is the fear level,” says Law. “We get pretty kicked around. Just look at the state of us.”
“Unlike last time, where Holmes kept getting Watson into trouble,” adds actor Downey, “this time Watson is getting Holmes out of trouble, and they're both in deeper trouble than I think the audience could have imagined we could go…. All manner of nastiness has just occurred.”
The drama comedy is filmed in the U.K., Switzerland, France and Austria. Guy Ritchie still serves as the director.
