This is not a spoof trailer from Tropic Thunder, and there are no appearances by Jason Statham or any Rock’N’Rolla cameos. This is the first official trailer for Guy Ritchie’s Christmas Day release, Sherlock Holmes.
Starring the ever-charismatic Robert Downey Jr. as the iconic detective and Jude Law as his steadfast companion Dr. Watson, the film channels a playful yet grand tone reminiscent of Pirates of the Caribbean, paired with a fresh, modern visual style.
Guy Ritchie’s take is already sparking conversation, thanks to its departure from some of the traditional elements found in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories. Holmes has typically been portrayed as a polished, precise gentleman, albeit one with formidable boxing and fencing skills. Here, Downey delivers a more eccentric, slightly unkempt, yet thoroughly charming interpretation.
With Ritchie’s stylish direction and Downey Jr.’s magnetic presence, this reimagining of the literary legend promises to make for a wildly entertaining holiday movie experience.
