Cool new 'Sherlock Holmes' trailer delivers!

DateThursday, November 5, 2009 at 12:12AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Sherlock Holmes Trailer delivers the goods

The more I see of Guy Ritchie's upcoming "Sherlock Holmes" adventure, the more I'm excited to see this film. A brand-new trailer just exploded onto the Web, and you can watch it after the jump.

As you can see below, this new trailer features a whole bunch of new footage, most of which looks really cool. It's a visually interesting and action-packed preview that works for me on several levels.

The focus of this preview is obviously the particular relationship between Holmes and Watson, and it looks like Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law really have what it takes to pull this off.

'Sherlock Holmes' sequel already in development

DateMonday, September 21, 2009 at 6:40PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law in Sherlock Holmes

Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes" won't open in theaters until Dec. 25, 2009, but Warner Bros. is already developing a sequel to the upcoming action adventure starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law.

Launching sequels before the release of a film is the new thing in Hollywood, and I guess Warner strongly believes this one has franchise potential. Responses to footage shown at Comic-Con has been positive.

Poster Madness: 'Whiteout;' 'A Serious Man;' 'Extract'

DateSaturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:50PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Another week is coming to an end, and it's time to go back and check up on recent movie poster releases on the Web. Check out one-sheets for "Whiteout" and "A Serious Man," among others, below.

The first poster below is for Dominic Sena's upcoming action thriller "Whiteout," in which Kate Beckinsale plays a deputy marshal heading to Antarctica to investigate a ruthless murder before the threatening arctic winter begins. It's a simple sheet, but it looks decent nonetheless.

Next up is the new one-sheet for Ethan and Joel Coen's new film "A Serious Man," about a physics professor whose life starts to fall apart when his wife decides to leave him, his lazy brother refuses to move out, his son has problems at school, and his daughter is trying to get a nose job.

The folks at IGN just posted a brand-new one-sheet for Guy Ritchie's upcoming "Sherlock Holmes." This character poster entirely belongs to Rachel McAdams, who plays Irene Adler in the flick.

Robert Downey Jr. stars as Holmes, while Jude Law is on board as Watson. McAdams obviously plays his love interest, and Mark Strong will portray the villain.

Rather excellent trailer for 'Sherlock Holmes'!

DateTuesday, May 19, 2009 at 10:06AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Apart from Richard Jenkins, there is one other actor I'm always incredibly excited to see on the big screen these days, and of course, that guy is Robert Downey Jr. His next big feature is Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes," and judging by the film's first (and excellent) trailer, Downey Jr. is most definitley the perfect man for the job.

Anyway, the first preview for the already anticipated film has finally debuted online, and you should check it out below. Sure, there's a looooot of slow-motion in there, but there's also pleeeeenty to like, at least in my opinion. In the flick, Robert Downey Jr. stars as Holmes, while Jude Law is on board as Watson. Rachel McAdams plays his love interest, and Mark Strong will portray the villain.

Daily news dose: 'Year One' gets PG-13; Neeson, Fiennes join 'Clash of the Titans'

DateSaturday, April 11, 2009 at 8:23AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Here's your dose of film news for April 11, 2009:

• Harold Ramis' upcoming comedy "Year One" finally received a PG-13 rating following some cuts, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The film stars Michael Cera and Jack Black as lazy hunter-gatherers banished from their village. I saw the trailer a couple of times and never laughed once, so I will walk into this one with the lowest possible expectations. It looks terrible.

• Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are set to star in Louis Leterrier's "Clash of the Titans." Neeson plays Zeus, father of Perseus (Sam Worthington), while Fiennes is on board to portray Hades. Mads Mikkelsen, Gemma Arterton and Alexa Davalos co-star. Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay wrote the script. (The Hollywood Reporter)

• That Sony is developing "Venom" is not exactly news, but here's the current project status: Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick have turned in a first draft and are waiting for a response. Reese said, "Then they had specific rules about the villain and the backstory and stuff like that, so there were certain things they wanted us... certain parameters they gave us." (ComingSoon)

• During his promotion tour for Joe Wright's upcoming "The Soloist," Robert Downey Jr. also spoke a bit about "Sherlock Holmes," due in theaters this December. Besides his desire for a PG-13 rating, the actor also said he thinks they're going to make a sequel if the first one scores. Read more at MTV.

Posters for 'Sherlock Holmes;' 'Shutter Island'

DateMonday, March 30, 2009 at 8:09PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Here are three posters for three films I'm actually looking forward to a lot. The first one is for Guy Ritchie's upcoming "Sherlock Holmes" and first appeared on the Web at LatinoReview.

It's quite a dark shot of lead actor Robert Downey Jr., who stars as Holmes. Jude Law is on board as Watson, Rachel McAdams plays his love interest, and Mark Strong will portray the villain. "Holmes," as the poster indicates, opens Dec. 25, 2009.

The second poster looks like a teaser sheet for Martin Scorcese's "Shutter Island," and it first popped up at RopeOfSilicon. Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley, Michelle Williams, Max von Sydow, Patricia Clarkson, Emily Mortimer and Jackie Earle Haley star. The film opens Oct. 2.

The folks at USA Today just posted a brand-new official photo from Guy Ritchie's upcoming "Sherlock Holmes," a film I am getting pretty excited about these days:

Ritchie's flick is a new take on the story of the talented detective. Robert Downey Jr. stars as Holmes, while Jude Law is on board as Watson. Rachel McAdams plays his love interest, and Mark Strong will portray the villain. Yay, it's about time we get to see more of McAdams.

Two brand-new stills from 'Sherlock Holmes' hit

DateMonday, December 15, 2008 at 3:38PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Warner Bros. just released two new stills from Guy Ritchie's new take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s fictional super detective. In the still above, you get a quick glimpse of Robert Downey Jr. as a bloody Sherlock. In the image after the jump, you see Sherlock whispering something to Watson, played by Jude Law.

Rachel McAdams stars as Holmes’ love interest, while Mark Strong is the villain, but no pictures of them have been released or popped up online at this stage.

As you may have heard already, the film is expected to portray the titular character as more modern and adventurous. With Ritchie in the director’s chair, who knows what that really means. "Sherlock Holmes" is on course for a Nov. 20, 2009 release.
