First time we've ever seen SHERLOCK HOLMES shirtless?

by Matt Holmes

Now there's literally hundreds of SHERLOCK HOLMES film and t.v. adaptations but I doubt any of them featured a shirtless image of super sleuth from Baker Street. And if they did, I doubt that they ever looked as good as this... Guy Ritchie's adaptation of the character is to go back to the very origins of Arthur Conan Doyle's novels where Holmes was depicted as a more than capable martial arts fighter, a sport which Downey Jr. himself is familiar with. The purposefully released image from Warner Bros. is a message to us that this Holmes adaptation will be different to every other. The second official image from Warner Bros. show the detective with his sidekick Dr. Watson as played by Jude Law... sherlockholmesoff2-440x290Rachel McAdams (as Holmes' love interest Irene Adler), Mark Strong (as the villain Blackwood) and the always great Eddie Marsan (as Insepc. Lestrade) co-star for the Nov. 20th 2009 movie. source - /film
