THE BEST SHERLOCK EVER

FYB faves Robert Downey Jr. and Rachel McAdams are in London today for a press conference about Sherlock Holmes, which is about to begin filming.

Said RDJ: “In case you aren’t aware I had a hell of a summer, and it’s made me much more viable to play a lead role than I might have (been) in the past.”

When asked what he could bring to a character portrayed countless times on film and television, he joked: “Clearly I’m going to do it better than it’s ever been done.”

Meanwhile, director Guy Ritchie said the flick will be his biggest movie “by a long shot” in terms of budget. No numbers were given but producer Joel Silver did mention that the budget had not been affected by the current financial crisis.

    This should be really good!! Robert Downey is a great actor and Guy Richie is good fit for this movie as well.

    Oh God no. No one can, or will ever be able to, do it quite like Jeremy Brett. The Sherlock Holmes films have always been some of my favorites growing up. And yes, Sherlock was London-based.

    I hate Hollywood :o(. They can never leave well enough alone.
