Final Poster and New Photos Revealed From Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Posted 12.02.11 by Ryan
The final poster has been revealed for the upcoming sequel Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, and it continues a theme of having Robert Downey, Jr. hold a gun. Whether he's comfortably holding the gun on his chest or holding it in profile or aiming it in front of the Eiffel Tower, it's clear that Holmes will require the services of a pistol in the sequel.
The final poster again sees Downey Jr. taking aim, but, this time, he's paired with Dr. Watson (Jude Law) on a cobblestone street with the shadow of Holmes' arch-nemesis Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris) appearing on the building next to them. Ironically, there are few weapons revealed in ComingSoon's new photo gallery for the sequel, which do depict the other characters in the movie, including Moriarty, the gypsy Sim (Noomi Rapace), Holmes' and Watson's new partner, Sherlock's brother, Mycroft (Stephen Fry) and the returning Irene Adler (Rachel McAdams), Sherlock's love interest from 2009's Sherlock Holmes.
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows was again directed by Guy Ritchie and written by Kieren and Michele Mulroney and co-stars Eddie Marsan as Inspector Lestrade and Kelly Reilly as Mary, Watson's wife.
