First Look At Robert Downey Jr As Shelock Holmes

Filming has begun in London for Guy Ritchie’s (“Snatch”) adaptation of “Sherlock Holmes” and with it comes our first look at Robert Downey Jr. in the title role. Ritchie’s plan is to present a more adventurous side to the detective who is generally known as a reserved intellect. From the set photo below it looks like Holmes may have been heavily dependent upon modern day lattes for his caffeine fix.

Update: Photos of Jude Law as Holmes’ sidekick, Watson, now available below.

Just Jared has another ten photos from the set here.
