New info and news about the Sherlock Holmes sequel has been posted, according to scifiwire.com Rachel will be in the film, but now as leading lady. Here’s what they found about the movie, when they interviews the producer Joel Silver.
Rachel McAdams will return, but …
If he’s planning to shoot in the fall, Silver will have to cast his Moriarty soon. Downey is back as Holmes, and Jude Law returns as Dr. Watson. Silver even said that McAdams would reappear but that she wouldn’t be the leading lady this time.
“She’ll be present,” was all Silver would say.
Who do you think should play Moriarty? And for that matter, which Arthur Conan Doyle character could pick up the baton from McAdams?
The start of shooting is not that far away.
First off, Silver thinks it will be ready to shoot before the end of this year. “We’ll start shooting in the fall and coming out maybe the following year,” Silver said on May 22 in Hollywood.
The clues to the sequel are already buried within the first film.
It ends with Holmes identifying his archnemesis, Moriarty. That will be where the second film picks up, says Silver, making the first film a blueprint for who Moriarty will be.
“We want it to be really bold and strong, and Moriarty has got to be a really incredible character,” Silver said. “We spent a movie setting up a character, and now we can make the next movie where we pay that character off.”
